So how is he doing? Now

Get a large or medium zoomed reptibreeze. :-) there are so many options out there.

Stunning Cham :eek:

If you are a group of people exploring at night it wont be an issue unless you take a walk through a township by mistake he he. Otherwise id say you are safe if you not wondering around alone in SA at night :D

Id take but have no more space and cash at the moment :D will le tyou know if i know of anyone.

Do you know what type of cage it is yet and how big?

All you need is plants and vine, you will also need to mist him down every few min if its really hot, I went to flora farm and got him this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schefflera its called the umbrella tree (Schefflera arboricola) i use this for the outside flex its grows like a monster in the...

25 watt basking lamp is a very very weak lamp. Post a pic of your cage and lighting positions please.

he he he he! Classic :D

OK Jimbo is getting huge, no new pics as yet as my sd card with all of Decembers photo's went POOF!!! LOL He Shedded again yesterday and still getting lots of sun water and food. All is well. And more than happy with my epic exotic purchase. I love this guy he so beautiful.

ROFL!! no i think it is because they are cold blooded and the cold water is a shock to the system.... But when my chameleons are outside i use the cold water hose to mist the flex, he will run for cover somewhere in his umbrella tree (Schefflera) and drink and what not.

That is awesome news. Does he have a name yet? :) Oh and cloudy is cool there is still a lot of UV that comes through :D as long as its not cold and rainy. But ja wait for the outside cage and upload a pic. The wife and i spend most of our time outside under the umbrellas and camp masters...

lo Carol :D Thats one thing they hate is cold water he he, and trust me veileds can move like lighting when they want to. But if its uber hot and his mouth hangs open he will take the cold hose water for a few seconds. :) I never leave my cham's outside in the sun with out checking up on them...

Yip could be. Do you have a outdoor enclosure for him to get some sun in today, put him outside with the meal worms visible he should suck them up after he is warmed up.

My Veiled also runs/dodges the water most of the time, then sometimes he will sit there and enjoy it. I normally just mist spray the plants etc to increase humidity etc and if its very hot ill give him a few sprays until he is just about to move away. They like warm water. I also use a filter...

How is he doing this morning? Did you monitor the eating as yet? Has he had a few meal worms? I had both my chams out side from about 15:30 till just after 18:00 yesterday. My Baby Panther chameleon started shedding again :) Rocco on the other hand is still on a bit of a eating strike with...

hmmm, no not in this instance of husbandry, ordinary bulbs explode if they come in contact with water or water vapour if they are very hot, it is better to invest in a proper basking lamp. This Chameleon has had enough up hill already. :D

Shame man :( That is some really bad scares. You got a real rambo Cham there. I hope the owner is not going to ask to take him back after all the energy and money you putting in here. And good on you for taking him in :) I picked up a 100 gallon flexurium the other day for R300 lucky i know...

Cool, If you only have one lamp in his cage then that could be why he is going down hill not eating and looking shoddy. By default you will notice two lights in most veiled chameleon cages. A basking lamp and a repti glo 5.0 Tropical uvb tube or compact. :D

No worries, glad i could help. If i may ask why did you buy the 4 year old from the guy and how much did he charge you. I also noticed that the Veiled has lost some spine spikes by the looks of it that cham had a ruff time with the previous owner.
