was she cold? like flux said they seem to communicate this way. It most apparent in males that are trying to court a female or putting off a territorial display. what concerns me is why is she laying on your hand with her eyes closed? like i said was she cold or are you over handling her...

I just skimmed, so there may have been things other keepers addressed, or things i may have missed. The ONE thing i felt it most important to mention is you should not be using a D3 supplement if youre exposing her to direct sunlight. Other than that supplementation is up to debate, one...

I always recommend Veileds for starters. Theyre relatively cheap and hardy. Very tolerant of newbie mistakes. AND that casque (the thingy on their head) looks awesome. Another point i try to make to would be chameleon owners is theyre not a pet. More of a display animal. Like a fish would...

Would you say the hissing/stretching was directed at you? She looks healthy from the pic other than the fact that she puffing up and looking a little pissy. You said only black spots? Not black background with blue and yellow spots? (if thats the case shes gravid) Only stopped puffing and...

I would say hybridization is extremely unlikely. I would say not at all, except for the fact that there was one person to breed a senegal with a veiled a while back....wonder how those turned out. I kept werneri for maybe a year at one point. They were sold to me as a pair, tried breeding them...

In my experience. most vets dont have a clue when it comes to chameleons. chameleon husbandry is simply to complicated and indepth for them to specialize. an experienced chameleon keeper is worth 10 normal vets imo. but there are the occasion vets that have a clue. ALSO you will need them, no...

i dont see why not. but at the same time chameleons tend not to show any symptom unless something is legitimately wrong. evolutionarily, showing signs of illness shows predators an easy meal. if there are particulates in the air (ie pollen/spores) that could cause irritation. and even...

i saw zefrank's video on the echidna a while ago and didnt realize he had a whole series on random animals. heres the video for chameleons (no matter what you do dont watch the duck vid) http://youtu.be/UR_byRbXxvs

long walks on a moonlit beach, glowsticks and BUTTERFLIES!!!!

so your plan is to house 2 adult females together? I currently have 2 female jacksons in one 2x2x4, theyre sisters and theve been housed together their entire lives. ive had no incidents and in fact seem to prefer the company. they tend to stay nearby one another when i let them out to...

:/ so maybe it was becuase she had just eaten. thats kind of disappointing if thats all it was. well to say the least ill be paying more attention after feeding time.

stupid cute, whenever you have questions feel free to ask them. even though im on the forums infrequently there are a LOT of knowledgeable keepers on here. sometimes its easier just to ask than try to research something obscure or not. the keywords dont always match up to the question and if...

well this was more of a chatter chirp. and i could see her physically vibrating. if it was just a squeek i probably would have just dismissed it as an expulsion of air/ chameleon burp since she had just eaten. the squeek during birth is kind of insightful though. maybe a noise made as a non...

strange, what species? and were they making physical contact when it happened? it didnt seem like a threat or anything, more of an acknowledgment of presence. ive had plenty of baby panthers and veiled housed together for the first few months and never witnessed anything like it. and...

So i had a first today. Im feeding two of my jacksonii x, females sisters. and as always im hand feeding them because i keep those two housed together. once the one seemed to have her fill she wanders over to the other. shes climbing the screen vertically while the other is horizontal...

lol thats the problem. and why patience is paramount. its absurd how dificult it is holding your arm outright and stationary. i would have never expected it to be so difficult before chameleon keeping.

thats what im thinking 1 a week. thanks for the input. anyone else?

HAHAHAH! between 20 and 50 for a veiled?! no brotha, those ladys pump them out like there is no tomorrow. hahahah between 20-50 LOLZ
