    Chameleon went on a walk about!

    David I have sorted out my internal debate years ago when I "aquired" my first female veiled in 1999. It should be known that we do live in civilized, overpopulated world IMO and should take every measure to care for gods wonderful creatures as I try to do. I am not a breeder that goes across...

    Rub-A-Dub-Dub! Chams in the tub?!

    PLEASE be careful!! If you do live in a highly populated area check your water for chlorine and other chemicals, It can be irratating for your Cham. I live in the country and have a well, so it's not a concern. Sometimes I wonder if humans should have just left these beautiful creatures alone on...

    free ranging and mirrors?

    Free range is kinda dangerous without proper supervision, a chams natural instinct is to climb and can be injured by a fall. Mirrors can stress an immature cham yes but when a mature cham "flares" up is not so bad, I have seen mine and he stretches out and rolls his tail, just don't let him...

    Dehydrated Panther

    showering will help, I would suggest getting some Hydro-life in him ASAP. It's a product that zoo's use on their herps like gatorade for chams, I purchased mine at herpsupplies.com and works well.
