Hey guys!! I have a 4-5 month old male veiled chameleon and I was wondering how much should I be feeding him? I mainly feed him crickets and about 15 to 20 everyday
Hey cham enthusiasts lol quick question. Is it absolutely necessary to mist your chameleon every single day!? Like can they go a few days out of the week without a misting?
I have a quick question. If I take my lil veiled cham outside for 2 hrs of natural sunlight do I still need to powder food with D3 twice a month? Or is sunlight enough? I've researched and read that with natural sunlight they can balance the amount of D3 intake?
Mine's about the same age and the way I feed him is kinda both. I have a lil feeder cup that I put a good bunch (10) in most he catches on the spot and some get out those I just let him look around for while I head off to work. When I check on him on my lunch break they're all usually gone so...
Also my lil guy is super mean!! Why is that? Lol... Like I've had him since the 11th I've handled him 4 times and one of em was today to see if he's warmed up a bit but he still hates me lol will he grow out of that or will I just have a grumpy cham forever? I'm honestly fine with that but the...
Should I limit the amount of crickets I feed my lil 4 month old male veiled because he seems to keep wanting to eat non stop!!? Like he never seems to get fulfilled! And I give him like 20!! Or should I just give him more!?
So I live in the central valley california and it's been getting hot here during the day reaching around the 90s. Should I still turn on a basking bulb or should I just leave on the uvb light. I went to check on his basking temp earlier and it was really hot at 101 which is why I caught him...
It's best to try and do as much research as possible before buying your first cham. I too just kinda jumped into this head first without realizing I needed floaties so I wouldn't drown! This forum are the floaties by the way because I was drowning in worry about everything my lil guy seemed to...
I'm still new to this and still learning but what I've learned so far is that buying from petco or petsmart isn't a good idea! Their staff isn't too knowledgeable about the reptiles they're selling and they tend to keep them in the wrong type of habitat which adds to the stress they've already...
Wouldn't his eyes be sunk in and wrinkly skin if he was dehydrated or can that sometimes also give false signals? Because his eyes seem normal and his skin was looking wrinkly yesterday but I read that can happen before they begin to shed and sure enough today he's shedding. I just don't wanna...
Well if he scared or not I'm not too sure he moves and then just chills somewhere he has plenty of cover and as for his color he's just green most of the time unless I open his viv and put my hand close then he starts showing a few stripes and dots just barely cuz I have also seen them fully...
I never really seem him drink only sometimes when I mist but his urates have always been white since I've got him so I figures dehydration is out of the pictures as for minor mbd I still don't officially know but I've been takin him outside with his viv for about 2 to 3 hrs and he seems to love...
I would give him 15 but he would look unsatisfied lol so I threw in another 5 and I hear when they're that young they can eat all DAY!! I'm still really new to this #chamlife but so far my lil guy has been thriving
