my new chameleon
so its been a while since i posted, today i decided to pick up a veiled cham after being ready for one for SOOOOO long, i got the cage and decor almost a year ago, the little guy was housed with another smaller male and when i was checking him out getting ready to buy watching him feed and whatnot, he was more alert, more responsive to the food, and quicker to stalk, besides after he had his fill on crix he decided to claim dominance on the smaller male, lol, so he kind of made the decision for me of who i was taking home...
my setup is a reptarium R65 65 gallon 16.5"x30"x28"
reptisun 5.0
100w blue day bulb
60w red night bulb
PLENTY of different sized flex-i-vines
lots of fake foliage
a live philodendron
i mist 2-3 times daily, and im not too sure what kind of diet to go with, as i dont want him to get metabolic bone disease, so far im thinking gut-loaded crix dusted in calcium w/ D3, as i already have them for most of my other animals, but not as a staple of his diet. i would like to do more research to be sure of what i want to feed him
so far he doesnt seem too stressed, he went from the dark grey color back to normal green within an hour of being in his cage, so i assume he adjusted well, especially coming from a cage half as small with another male veiled
heres the enclosure before i put in the live philodendron, and i also added another vine



about 3 days ago he was seen by a vet that specializes in herps and he got a clean bill of health, no signs of metabolic bone disease, no scarring or past injury, nice healthy eyes, VERY aware of his surroundings, and a VERY strong grip... IMHO hes a great specimen, with great coloration... couldnt ask for much more
im also planning on setting up a way to use my ultrasonic fogger for the enclosure to bring up humidity
