    I felt bad laughing at my chameleon.

    I don't know if this has happened to anyone else, but the other day I was giving her a super worm. She is young and hates everything so I place them on a vine near her and a few moments later she gulps them down. Well, this time when she shot her tongue out....she missed and hit the vine. Her...

    How often to dust with vitamin, calcium and calcium with D3?

    I read the guidelines on this site in the chameleon care about dusting with calcium, d3 and vitamins. It really does not give a day by day guide. I have a 4 month female veiled chameleon. I was wondering what are some of the daily intervals people are using when using these to dust the feeders.

    Finished Cage Video

    I finally finished Gordita's cage. Please take a look at the video and let me know if there is anything I did wrong or need to change/fix. Thanks! (I do have a reptifogger on the floor beside the cage but she hates it so i stopped using it.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdxYs96f49E

    24 x 24 x 48 enclosure a bit wobbly

    Probably the most effective way to go an cage like that would involve some sheet metal screws, a drill and some wire (small picture frame wire would work great). First you start on a side or the back. Make sure your drill bit is smaller then your sheet metal screws. Drill a hole in each...

    How do you get stuff attached to the metal screen cages?

    I am setting up my chameleon's permanent cage. I need to know how you get vines, rods, wood (the stuff they mainly climb on) to attach to the sides of the metal screen cages?

    My first reptile ends up a chameleon

    I just ordered a 24x24x48 cage. I know its big for a juvenile cham but i dont feel like buying 3-4 cages as she grows. I plan on getting the cage all set up and only worry about cleaning it. It will be so big for her i probably wont be able to find her, lol.

    My first reptile ends up a chameleon

    Yeah, thanks. I have been looking at the ones people have posted here and that type seems efficient and cheap. Though those types of drawers don't longevity and tend to get wobbly over time. My plan right now is to build a frame for it to sit on. I have a friend that owns a green house and i...

    My first reptile ends up a chameleon

    She won't eat worms. I have tried different kinds. But crickets are gone as soon as I put them in there.

    My first reptile ends up a chameleon

    Thanks for all the advice. Do you know if there are any pics or diagrams of a drainage system for the bottom? I want to get this thing all set up so I don't ever have to do anything else to it but clean it out. I just hope I don't lose him in it right now lol. And is it normal for him to...

    My first reptile ends up a chameleon

    Yes, i have him in a 12x12x15 cage currently with a uvb light and a heat lamp. Misting it constantly for right now till I get the cage I want and fogger and all that. What is the best type of live plant to accommodate him as a juvenile and a adult? And I only have been handling him about once...

    My first reptile ends up a chameleon

    So the cage should not go below 72 degrees F at night with the lights off? Another big question I had, once I get the cage, fogger and dripper set up, what can I do to keep form having a huge mess in the bottom of the cage?

    My first reptile ends up a chameleon

    I know I will receive a lot of "welcome" messages so "thanks" in advance. My wife bought me a chameleon the other day for my 32nd b-day. Honestly I am scared I am going to kill it since I have never had a reptile in my life. I have been doing a lot of reading on this site and many others. It...
