My first pics

[team ellis]

this is my first pics and my first time here, this is Susie, only had her since march so shes about 6months old. no colours yet other than spotty black when shes hunting.
If anyone can help i have two worries at the moment firstly she doesnt seem to be drinking (but looking on here im not spraying long enough so im going to try that) and she hasnt layed any eggs, i have a plant pot 1/3 soil (to bring up quantity) and then 2/3 sand, shes walking fine and isnt falling off so i just presume shes not carrying yet.

She's a lovely little girl. Where do you live and what kind of a cage do you have her in? At 6 months it's time to cut back her food and her temps and you should be able to stop her from laying a clutch but keep the laying bin in just in case. Below is a great blog for raising a female veiled. http://raisingkittytheveiledchameleon.blogspot.com/2007/12/keeping-female-veiled.html

you might need to shower her...so she will enjoy and begin to get moist and mostly what type of cage you have for her?

its an exo-terra cage 1.5x.1.5x2. im guessing showering is just keeping her sprayed whilst i mist the cage for her drinking?

I heard that chameleons can drink water from there eyes if you directly spray them.

no when they drink water they will clean their eyes with the water they drank and then flush it out

Nice. You may want to add some additional vines/branches near your basking area, so your chameleon can have several options/temperatures levels when basking.

Oh alright!Thanks for the heads up!

she wasnt in her basking spot at that point more running away from the water, the basking spot does have several heights where she can be at.
