Quick Poll for Curiosity

[Jevin]

Not sure if we can setup polls, but out of curiosity:

How many CF user's found this site before getting their first chameleon and how many users found it after getting their first chameleon.

I actually found this site the day I got my first Chameleon as the breeder I purchased from knew about it and highly recommended it.

Also figured as people chime it, it will help new user's feel more comfortable as we share how we started out with chams.

I found it 3 days after I impulse bought my boy. I lurked and read everything possible for almost 2 full months before posting.

 

[Graves923]

I found this forum a few days after I saw a chameleon for sale at petco. Ended up lurking here for a few weeks and eventually started posting a few weeks before I placed an order with FLChams.

This forum helped me out greatly when I was preparing for the arrival of Kyle.

I joined a few years after my family's first chameleon. I don't really consider it much of my experience though because I had little idea of what I was doing other than feeding and dusting. I was just a kid, but we always had reptiles, fish, you name it.

 

[janjan20]

Unfortunately, I found this site right before my first Cham passed. Wish I would have found it sooner

 

[AnamCara]

I found it a few weeks after I also impulse bought a chameleon from Petco. Best resources around IMHO.

I should note, it was years and years before I actually got one on my own. I researched multiple times, but held off because I was unsure about committing that much to them. I was under the impression they needed roach and too many feeders to handle at the time.

Most every one knows my story . I found this site when we got France’s . I desperately needed help with her . This site did that . She lived 31/2 years I’ve met so many amazing friends here that hold the same passion I do for the beautiful Gems .

Found it months before. I didnt join till the day after. I was too excited to keep him all to myself lol.

 

[Lennoncham]

Found it a month or so before I got Lennon. Joined 2 days after I got him and got a smack in the face that I didn’t know anything lol.

My first cham was a quadricornis that I got in 1998, so afterwards. I found CF when I was looking to get back into the hobby, and trying to find Quads. Joined CF about 6 months before getting him.

 

[Syreptyon]

I lurked for a few months to figure everything out and then joined once I got my first chameleon, Azrael. I would've been doomed without CF haha

 

[Tony_S]

I found it before (still haven't received my first chameleon yet) so that I can research the crap out of them

 

[Chameleomom]

I lurked around for sometime and then joined. Best thing I ever did. Corrected my mistakes and learn a lot and still am

Wow, I just looked at my bio, I've been on this site for almost 2 months already (I lurked for several months before joining). Time sure does fly by.

I came across the site while looking for a quadricornis and bought one a few days later from @ponders . His name is Odin and I still have him to this day! He is such a shy little guy and I love him dearly. I had owned chameleons in the past but admit I was not as knowledgeable as I thought I was regarding their care. I don't post much but I do read everything and have learned so much in the few years that I have been a member.

 

[GoodKarma19]

Found the forum about two days before I officially brought Karma home, after my vet mentioned a chameleon focused forum. Karma was a pet store reject with a bunch of health problems that I took home from the vet clinic I work at in lieu of having him euthanized. Though I had to euthanize him a few months later, he reignited my passion for the hobby and here I am today!
