well most of the cham come are not really healthy...
imagine long flight hour..n yet they are fragile.
if u wanna get a chameleon..
veiled chameleon is the best to start with...make sure u get a CB one and subadult size..
panther chameleon is the 2nd option.
jacksoni is quite tough to keep..n its under cites dno what..
all chameleon need license to keep rite?

Thanks for sharing the setup Sam.

Your solution seems practical considering our climate. If I may ask, what's the longest period you've kept a cham? Or is there anyone you're familiar of keeping these beauties for over 3-4 years?

Noticed that you're using mesh wire for the enclosure. Do they need moderate/good ventilation considering our tropical ambient humidity and temperature?

That pair of Veiled with me since March !!


I know of a guy who has his Male Veiled for about 13 months (still alive ) !!! They get over heated easily as well thus the moderate/good ventilation !!

Woah, reminds me when my water dragon got burnt haha. They get overheated easilly? Sad.... I like vields

this is chameleon thread. =.= not rabbit.

I think polkadotte trying to say that the above babies are suitable live food for bigger size Chameleon ie my 50 cm Meller's Chame LOL

haha i got wrong page i guess

How gravid is she now? Any new pics? It'd be really something to see baby chameleons pop locally.

Eggs laid !! 44 of them !! now the long up to 7 months wait for them to pop out ( if they are fertile ) !! If they do decide to pop out around the 7 mths period may come out on April Fool's day ( as eggs deposited either 31th Aug or 1st Sept ) LOL

congrats. 44 of them is alot!!! time to buy toto. haha

Toto ? Try our local Sabah 88

I just won a big price ( first 3 prize) on the 10 th with that company after just 4 buy since eggs laid !! LOL

But have to share with a fren n lots of " shouts" here and there !!!
