So, I figured I'd tell a story, about this pet store around me that I visited today to buy my new Veiled. Upon visiting I witnessed this cham in a 2x2x4 enclosure, a bit surprised to see this alone, it was on the top shelf as to make it feel safe. Upon asking someone for assistance I saw was informed the owner of the store placed all care upon the chameleons and other reptiles and he would need to answer any questions, and he came out quick and professionally. He then proceeded to tell me EVERYTHING there was to know, as I played the dumb card and surprisingly he was correct. I started talking to him, and talking about how most stores incorrectly care for chams and he told me he noticed, and actually buys them at local petstores and then cares for and re-sells at his so they have a good life. Fecals and urates were perfect, he had a temp and humidity gage, all were in good range, he dusted all crickets and even had it on a good schedule.
It's so nice to see a store actually care for their animals and not try to just house them and sell. Upon asking him why he cared so much and how he knew so much he told me before he owned the store he actually was a scientist who traveled to the Galapagos and studied plants and animals to try and find cures for different diseases, there he fell in love with reptiles and proceeded to show me pictures of him in his journeys. If your in South Jersey and need some kind of reptiles, Bills Wonderland of Pets in Magnolia NJ; I HIGHLY recommend it.
So, onto the next thing, I now have a new 6-7 month Male Veiled. I love him already, Bill let me open the cage and stick in my hand, he walked up it and perched himself right on my shoulder, that's when I knew I was buying him haha, he's already got some beautiful coloring. Will post pictures when I get him settled in all the way; don't wanna cause him unnecessary stress. With that being said, any ideas for names?
