Chameleons

Hi there i have been keeping chameleons for nearly three years now, in this time i have owned and bred pygmy chameleons and have a slightly deformed vieled chameleon that i rehomed. I no longer have the pygmy's i sold them after breeding them for me to focus on Oscar my vieled chameleon. vieled chameleon- These tend to be non-social chameleon's and would rather be left alone than messed about with. I am lucky that mine has become used to me and see's me has no threat to him rather than some chameleons i know that stand there and fight, i have seen many that will become quite aggresive and go to bite you everytime you put you hand in there tank. ...  Read the complete review

I had only owned a chameleon for 2 weeks before she died. She was a tiny Panther Chameleon and was a lovely pet. I called her Zoe, and this review is in memory of her. She tragically died due to some eating disorder and the annoying fact that it was hard to get her to drink as Chameleon's can only drink from a drip!

*HOW MUCH* A chameleon, its cage and the cages contents may cost you up to and even more than $300 (CANADIAN.) But trust me... its well worth it. *HABITAT* Chameleons generally live in the rainforest so you may want to put stuff like foggers and bark chips in the cage.

You can feed them basically any bug you find in your house. YOU JUST HAVE TO MAKE SURE THEY DONT HAVE ANY DISEASES. I feed mine chrickets, meal worms and silk worms. Chameleons eat ...  Read the complete review
