    Awesome, thanks! The reinforcement en bracing will be included for it gives both rigidity and hookpoints for accessories, y'all convinced me of that :)

    Well thanks for the insight on the misting systems, I'll have a look around both products then to compare prices including shipping ;) Yes I saw that post on the UV tubes, I will consider that when it comes to choosing the type and size of screen, thanks for the advice. I'll include...

    Ok so I contacted Pro Products via email, they ship worldwide on priority mail without intermediaries. They told me they are often mistaken to be in commercial partnership with Aquatec, whereas this company only builds some little thingies and nozzles for them I think, but they do not do retail...

    Oh goodie I may get a pro mist then if you have been shipped to GB :) I will try to look around and see if personal order or retail/distributor prices are better; France shouldn't be more expensive than GB (we already are two of the most expensive countries in Europe anyway :D) As far as...

    A chameleon who acts like dog and cat

    Quite amazing information we learned here! As far as the chameleon irrationalities are concerned, you mentioned the chameleon trying to squeeze himself in small gaps whereas he can shoot a cricket down from far away with extreme accuracy; or being stressed by the presence of crickets. I...

    Thanks for the help! I was pondering for the light position, but I fear the very thin mesh might filter out a big load of UVs. I'll see if I can put some sort of a midway size mesh just on a selected area of the top to position the uv light over it. As far as the misting is concerned, I...

    Numbers of veiled chameleons....

    I would suggest to contact the EPA for the US numbers, or a big breeding company, they may have an idea on where to start digging. Do you also need numbers for Europe? I am in quite good contact with a store and breeding facility that is among the most eminent ones in western Europe, they could...

    I'm seriously obsessed with Chameleons now

    Greetings and welcome to the forum! I'm new as well, and am delighted to have found this forum.

    Looking for some closure.

    Sorry for your loss :( If your cham passed over but you are unsure of the causes of death, it may be helpful to ask the vet to perform an autopsy or at least some blood tests to check what could have been wrong. I realize it can be a difficult step but it often carries many an answer to...

    To make or to buy, that is the question.

    As long as the varnish coating prevents rot and toxic substances from soaking out of the wood, it sounds great :)

    Hello Chameleon World

    Welcome fellow newcomer! Yes the site is certainly a very charismatic and helpful community, I'm sure you'll enjoy it!

    Wow cool then, if the cham is ok with his reflection (what a proud specimen you have lol ! :D) and the ventilation is good, it should be cool :) the central tree idea is certainly very practical and aesthetic! Just as a safety suggestion, as there is frequent misting and a turtle on the...

    To make or to buy, that is the question.

    If I remember well, cedar is not recommended for reptile enclosures unless generously coated in multiple layers, as it contains toxic molecules.

    maybe if replacing every other glass panel with screen you could diminish the reflection factor, and favor ventilation. Isn't there anti-reflective film that can be applied to glass panels? I believe this kind of film is used in trucks to prevent the windshield from reflecting instrument lights...

    Cage Design - Mark.I :)

    Howdy, To get straight to the point, I never really housed a chameleon before except an inherited one in a glass vivarium 6years ago, which was sick and got sicker. Anyway, the past is the past, I have spent a couple of years on and off documenting myself, building other terraria for geckos...

    Chameleon Doesn't Bask

    Indeed, 35-40°C is a high temperature even for a veiled (95-104°F) - though some breeders in literature seem to be successful with 38°C (100°C). Depends on where the cham comes from if wild caught (had the same problem with geckos who were accustomed to low maxima in temperature), and what it...

    Who's behind the computer?

    Alright alright, I had to go back half a year to find photos where I am both presentable and, well...on the pics, as I am the one making them usually ;) So here you can see an almost 23 year-old chemistry student in civilian clothing - no no civilized is too hard for me :D And another one with...

    multi vitamins?

    Indeed, composition and concentration are different for humans, needs are different too, and frequency of administration is also different. furthermore, vitamins are partly eliminated by kidneys. a human dose of vitamins would probably cause hypervitaminosis AND renal disorder or failure, even...
