how many did you feed daily? and at what times?

my brother has a heat lamp on his tank and he has a water bowl with a little thing that drips water in the water so the chameloens can recognize it besides still water

hey my veild just died, he was pretty old. when mine was six weeks old i would just get a bunch of crickets and give hime what he wanted every day. i always put herptivite multivitamins by rep-cal and calcium with vit.d also from repcal. the calcium is very important at the young age to prevent a bone calcium deficiency that makes their bones bow out and jaw soft. also, make sure you dont use to hot of a lamp even though their from the desert because sometimes they dont know when to move away and mine had a kinda messed up casque and back. i would also recomend getting a screen cage since they get stressed by looking at themselves in the class and the screen also keeps it ventilated. also, i would go to somewhere that sells plants and get a small ficus tree for its cage since they like to sit in there and eat the leaves when their hungry. o yeah you can see if its male or female by looking at its hind feet and if it has spirs (a little bumb on each) its a male. males are better since they live longer, look cooler, and cant get egg bound

any questions email me at bigbadbasile07@yahoo.com
