she turned this color once, but I thunk she was scared of me messing with the dripper. And she gets a speckled stripped pattern when she's roaming around at the bottom, but it's too dark down there to get a picture.

ok.. first thing tomorrow I'm going out to get some sand and a bigger box. I have one pothos vine with roots.. I'm gonna put that in a little bit of the actual dirt so it grows good, then plant that in the sand. I do think she is actually hungry, because she was going after a stinkbug which was...

and is a 12"×6" box big enough or do I need to go get a bigger one?

Vikki, is this ok to use for an egg laying box? or do I need to mix it with sand?

😲 well. I am just now reading the link about egg laying. I had no idea that she might be close, but she is probably showing signs. I am going to have to get some sand and organic soil and make her a laying box!

really?? I had no idea. So could she possibly be looking for a place to lay eggs? Because for the past 2 days she has been roaming all over the bottom of the cage.

great idea about the greens. I'm learning a lot. thanks!!

Thank you! I'm going to give this a try before I really start to worry. She is 6 months old, so I guess this is still considered a baby?

Well I hope she does not have a parasite. I think there is a vet in this area that does reptiles, I'll have to call them. Maybe I'll try moving the feeder down.

thanks Vikki, I am filling out the husbandry right now.

First off, I am so glad to find you all. I am new and learning so much. I've had my female veiled chameleon for just a little over a week. The first day I fed her she ate 3 small crickets out of the homemade half gallon milk jug feeder hung on the side of the cage, plus two that had escaped and...

Vikki, I really can't believe that I only just arrived here to discover your Beman is gone. I am so sad about this. I love your post about building trust.. so many good tips and information. I have only had Jade for one week, and she is pretty skittish whenever I open the door to do something...

oops.. sorry - Vikki!

Good morning Vicki, thanks SO much for the nice welcome and the links. I'm off to look at them right now. I got up early, even before Jade's lights are set to come on so it's still pretty dark here.

I am so sad to read this. I am brand new, but have just been watching a ton of your videos on YouTube and learning so much. I feel like I've missed a lot by not being here until now. Thank you for sharing so many great tips! -Eileen

Thanks Jeremy for the welcome! I forgot to mention that her name is Jade. And I am sure I will have a millions questions, I just need to find the right threads to post them in. Here she is in her h-u-g-e home.. can you spot her? -Eileen

I just got my first chameleon a week ago.. she is 6 months old. I am totally in love with her, and I hope I can do everything right so she'll live a good happy life with me. I'll be reading posts for a while!
