So I have decided I want some carpet chameleons, and I wish to breed them. Trouble is Im a new member so I can't use the classifieds for a while. This give me the perfect opportunity to study up on what would be best for my liitle critters. So whats a good starting point? I was reading about roach farming which would save on buying crickets. So what are some good topics to look into?
Just a beginner trying to start off in the right direction.

When I was at this point, I just wrote down a bunch of questions on some paper then used the search function on this forum to find my answers. Those I had a hard time finding I posted about and asked. All in all a few months into the research and I had a pretty good idea of what to expect going into this venture.

Researching is key to your chameleon's health.
Most people keep their chameleons in screen enclosures or glass terrariums rather than a fish tank.

Just so you know the above link is excellent article is by Kevin Stanford, dooley1 on this forum. He also sells his beautiful captive bred carpets. I have a pair, they are healthy, growing like crazy and beautiful. I keep them just like Kevin says to.
I would google "carpet chameleons" and go from there. Also there are some good books that describe care and breeding of carpets. But deciding to breed before you have carpets and are well established is their care is really putting the cart before the horse. jmo
