The carpet cham is relatively small. Mines only about 4 or 5 inches not including the tail. Fairly easy to take care of, doesnt require too big of a cage (mines only about 4 ft x 3 ft x 3 ft), and she has really great colors (especially when compared to veileds, as they are normally only...

I agree that veileds, though normally the most common, are typically quite unfriendly. My friend has one that was fine for about a month but then started hissing and trying to bite him whenever he tried to take it out which was very upsetting. Panthers can be quite a bit more friendly but also...

$800 dollars is definately a good amount for a nice cham setup unless you are planning on getting a very expensive cham, I've seen the different species range from about $20 (pygmies) up to a few hundred (panthers) and even some in the thousands but those are the rare ones only for professionals...

Chameleons do require quite a bit of time and care and are no beginners pet. However, you say that you have done quite a bit of research, so as long as you know everything you need, all the specific care requirements for the type of cham you are looking at, and are willing to spend quite a bit...

In the past ive always used the zoo med reptifogger for my animals that require humidity because they are one of the cheapest humidifiers I could find at about $60. However, I have now had the fan stop working on them twice, rendering them useless, and im tired of replacing them just so they...

darn Well I guess it looks like I'm probably not going to be able to keep using a coconut fiber substrate, though I wish I could, as it looks a lot nicer than a blank or paper bottom and probably makes the chameleon feel more like it is in its natural environment. I appreciate your suggestions...

I have had an enclosure for not even a year now and twice I have had to completely redo the substrate due to excessive moisture and mold. I like to not have a bare bottom to the cage but instead have a natural coconut fiber or dirt substrate, which presents quite a challenge. The first time I...

ill read it, thanks. You said you wouldn't recommend having another cham in there w/o a divider but would it be possible to have a second smaller cham in there (like a pygmy or rudis) since the cage is so big? Also, I just love Jessica's colors because most of the time she is very colorful...

picture If you want to see a pic go to the current photo contest entries and look at the one titled carpet cham Jessica. that's her.

Ok, so I have a mature female carpet chameleon in a cage that's about 4 ft x 4 ft x 2.5 ft. I was wondering if there is enough room to put another carpet cham in there and possibly have them breed. thanks!

I will try to get a pic while shes like that, as she is not doing it all the time. basically, if you look at the pics of the excited but not gravid and the normal condition females in that article, all the white on their body would instead be a sort of light pink.

So I've had my carpet chameleon Jessica for a few months now but just recently her "main" color (the sort of backdrop for the designs) has changed from white/light green to a pink color. Should I be concerned? Possible causes? I did just add dwarf giant papyrus (oxymoron lol) and a cissus vine...
