I agree about pet stores, but some actually are trustworthy though. I'm not saying they know a ton about chameleons, but I do trust that they do some gut loading. And like I said I would gut load as well. For example If I was buying crickets, I would ask what they have been using for gut load...

Thanks! Sorry I thought bug burger was for the chameleon not the feeders haha :D I feel a lot better about gut loading now. Get feeders from a store that gut loads then use bug burger and add some other produce to make it as complete as possible.

LOL! The more I research the bigger the investment I realize it is. I've been learning that about my blue tongue's as well... But if I get the set up right the first time I know it'll save a lot of money in the long run even if it means spending more $ at first. I just found out there's...

OH! That is much simpler that I thought. I read some of the gut loading blogs and people were mixing 1 cup of dandelions, 1 cup of this, 2 table spoons of that, etc, etc... I was getting discouraged because I really want a chameleon but I would never get a pet without being able to provide the...

So after doing some more research I have a few more questions... For someone with no chameleon experience would it be better to get a baby, juvi, or adult? I looked into free ranging a bit, but I'm unsure of the drainage. I feel like a misting system would just spray down the whole area...

Thanks for the info! This forum is great so far, definitely better than reading care sheets. It sounds like I have a lot more research to do before I commit to getting a chameleon. If it's not too much work for you I'd love to hear about how to get started on a setup. I do not plan to get the...

WOW. Gut loading the feeders sounds very confusing and complicated. Is there an easy way to do it?

Thanks for the information. Its actually good to hear that crickets don't HAVE to be the stable feeder. I'd rather use "wormy" types as much as possible for food. Also, thank you for explaining the lighting situation. That was definitely what I was most confused about.

Thank you. I read the blog, would you recommend free range over using a cage? I've never heard of free range, thats really cool! Also, I'm surprised that some chameleons enjoy being handled? I've never really heard that before. Is that just luck of the draw on which chameleon you get or do some...

Hey guys this is my first time on this forum. I have experience with many of the "beginner" reptiles- I used to own a red eared slider, leopard gecko, and bearded dragon. I now own 2 blue tongue skinks. I do not have a chameleon yet. I am trying to learn as much as I can before I get one...
