Re: best beginner
wow just barely saw this ya i joined that site shortly after i posted this after just jumping into my first ball python without researching i definitely am researching first i just hope i dont go crazy buying chams like i did bp's
i think im gonna get myself a panther next reptile show i like the panthers pattern and i hear that they are more docile than veilids so that will probably be my next purchase, as long as i dont buy every single ball python i see between now and then i hate looking at kingsnake.com

I've had both Veileds and Panthers and I have to agree that they are both pretty good starter chams as long as you do your research first. Just be sure to give them a nice variety of foods because they can easily get bored of the same thing if fed too much.
1.0 Mojave 100% Het VPI Axanthic "Pleepleus"
1.2 Albino Common Snapping Turtles "Beavis, Patty & Selma"

Most veiled chams are really mean especially the one i had but they have the easiest care requirements like the panthers. The chameleons i like the most was the jacksons , the ones with the 3 horns on their heads and their requirement isnt really that hard u just gotta have a higher humidity for them but they have a real kool personality :p

I've had a few differnt Cham. and I have to say, I had an easier time with my veilds. My females where always nice unless gravid, my males thats a different story. I think either panther or veild would be a good choice, just try not to bother to much, they are more a look but dont touch pet.
DC Reptiles.com coming soon....

Go spend some time on a few chameleon forums. When my gf wanted to get a panther cham, that was the best source of information for her.
Panthers aren't hard to take care of, but they do have higher time requirements and are a bit pricier in husbandry costs when compared to most snakes. I highly recommend investing in a timed spraying system such as a mistking to keep any chams well hydrated.

I own and breed jacksons and there the best. They just chill on your hand. Just put a heat lamp and a automatic mister in a screen cage and your set. I also cage there diet up every two days with lively animals such as roaches, grasshoppers and crickets. Also use mealworms, hornworms, and mine LOVE silkworms. Good luck
