Jerry the chameleon is so cute! I wanted to add a few things to what you said... hope I’m not stepping on any toes. 1. Reptile bark is not recommended for chameleons due to its high risk of causing impaction. A fully bioactive enclosure or bare bottom with potted plants would be a safer option. 2. Humidity levels for a veiled chameleon should be 30-40% during the day and 70-100% at night. 3. Mealworms are also not recommended for chameleons due to their high levels of chitin and low nutritional value. Dubia roaches and crickets are great! 4. Also important to specify that people want to be using calcium WITHOUT D3 as that is a very common mistake.
Respectful comment and helpful feedback. I'm rescuing a veiled chameleon this weekend and I've done a ton of research and invested in equipment. Setting up a bio active enclosure and preparing the environment before I introduce Rango to his new home :) I'm new to the herp game and it's just incredible work. I appreciate everybody putting up content and being active in the community.
@@zhsjjzsjkz9788 D3 toxicity is a very real concern. Feel free to check out my supplements video to learn more: ruclips.net/video/nLONCW9tSPA/видео.html
One really cool tip/trick that I literally just found out is you can use your own branches. You just need to clean them with soap and water. It saves SO much money and is 100% worth the time.
@@State2statebby no they’re pretty cheap if you get on Petco but don’t because they could end up sick if you get them from a breeder that takes care of them they cost more because it’s not sick or anything is wrong with it
Great video! If you're considering getting a chameleon, this video is a must-watch! It covers key essentials like lighting, humidity, diet, treats, and pricing, offering valuable insights for potential chameleon owners. A great starting point for responsible pet ownership!
This is great!! However, I would be careful and possibly reconsider using moss vines. Chams tend to accidentally rip out their claws on moss vines. I would also like to add that substrates are known to hold bacteria and if crickets (or any other food) are on the substrate while your cham is hunting them, they can possibly ingest the substrate which could be fatal!!! I think everything else is great though! (There is always a lot of back and forth advice between Cham owners!!)
Thanks for your comment! yeah I noticed that the moss on the moss vines fall off sometimes, so I got rid of the moss vine after we find out about this problem.
Good luck! If you already have a chameleon and you need some information you should go to the channel Neptune the Chameleon she gives lots of good advice!
Awesome video, made me give up on getting one, interactivity is probably my #1 factor, and if I can’t Chad-strut with my lizard on my shoulder like a pirate, that’s not the lizard for me. Thank you man!
Good on you for not being impulsive. I will say, it's lick of the draw but chameleons in the right conditions can be quite interactive, I had one that literally scratched on his door like a dog to go out and ride around every day
Yes get a beginner reptile he’s 100% right. This is just common sense. People get these animals then don’t do the shit they need to do to take care of them.
I think the best way to phrase it is that chameleons require much more research and are way more vulnerable than other reptiles. I'm not a reptile guy but I've kept chameleons successfully, I think people should just know you need to spend a lot more time and money, be more attuned to nutrition and environment, and much more attentive to warning signs. But they're awesome pets, I wouldn't dissuade anyone.
Theres a wild one living in a bush in my garden, but i want to bring it in and build an enclosure etc, im sure it will live longer if we feed it rather than it hunting for food ?
Another question does a chameleon need a heat lamp or can it just be the uvb light? Cause I know my leopard geckos need them but do chameleons really need one?
Just got my first veiled chameleon and needing some tips as well so far he likes his environment. I need to get another light cause as you said the one in the kit does not suffice.
I really want a Jackson’s chameleon however the place that sells them near me has them listed for like $175 which is a lot for me right now so I went with a veiled
Good enclosure setup, I personally owns a chameleons farming business in South Africa. I understand very well how much work goes into captive breeding of this particular species.
Dude, yours and my chameleon are literally twins lol. Ik they all tend to look pretty similar but I almost thought that it was my chameleon on my screen haha
I have a Panther Chameleon and want to put live plants in with it. I have here a Dracaena moonlight and a Fiddle leaf ficus,9Ficus lyrata Bambino. Do you know if they're safe? Thanks, Jimmy
theres always online but if you cant get one there for some reason you should be able to find one at petco/petsmart personally if you have one i like shopping at pet supplies plus
Reconsider tying the vines to the top of the cage…. That wire mesh is just glued cheaply to the top. It’s made for humidity rather and strength/structure.
I have 2 geckos but I just rescued a veiled chameleon from a kid who hasn’t been taking care of it and I’m really stressed cause I don’t wanna mess anything up but it’s already unhealthy cause they didn’t take care of it and I’m worried cause it’s like 6 months old and it’s tiny asf so idk what to do or where to even start
I got a chameleon and a bearded dragon also it's better to get live food for both and gut feed. They honestly help me allot so I want to make them both as happy as possible
I got one today I also have a leopard gecko 🦎 and she was my first. We are gonna change the enclosure tho bf it’s a mess rn bc we got the same kit thing he got and suction cups won’t stick sooo it’s a problem.
Hi Zachary! Im not licensed, but have worked with chameleons for nearly my whole life. I would recommend a glass enclosure for you because of the odd climate. Glass enclosures are very controversial in the chameleon hobby, but ive found they are actually very beneficial. My number one advice to you would be that you have proper ventilation. Meaning mesh screening on the top and if you can, the sides. This is good for keeping him warm and humid, while also providing ventilation and less access for bacteria. Another thing i would suggest would be to not add substrate or soil on the bottom of the enclosure. Because of not having as many airways, bacteria could eventually grow and harm your cham. Instead of substrate, you could go barebottom or add paper towels and exchange them weekly. If you have any other questions Id be more than happy to answer them for you!
@@nhsbreyer6197 thanks for the advice. I just got mine and added the substrate. I don’t like how it makes the place look dirty lol I am using it for the first couple weeks while I get the plants it is okay with.
I have one that due to an infection, good gas fallen off. It looks healthy but I want to make sure he himself is healthy, I don’t have most of these things but I’ll definitely be asking for them now.
My chameleon loves when I hold him he literally dances (moves his head back n forth) every morning.. and basically jumps into my hand... he’s 3 years old.. idk maybe mines yay weird
Veiled chameleons are more protective and don’t like to be Handel but panther chameleons are a lot more friendly. To get right and more nformation you should go to the channel Neptune the Chameleon great advice!
I have the compete opposite, my panther hates me and anything i do for him but my veiled loves to be out of his enclosure will stand on his high stick pawing too me until i get him out very happy to be on my shoulder
Just fyi. Most breeders will get their reptiles stressed to show off their colors. They do get dark at first but after the stress is over the vibrant colors come out and that’s when they take photos. With that said, most real breeders that are willing to take care of their reptiles and charge a higher price to make sure their customers are doing their due diligence before purchasing.
annoying how everyone is like if you’re thinking about getting a chameleon don’t unless you’re experienced well only one way to get experienced is to own one for fuck sake
Glass enclosures hold in humidity better but are terrible for air flow, wired enclosures have better airflow abut suck and holding in humidity. So if you get a wired enclosure you can try and drape a large piece of cloth over it to hold in the humidity. Chameleons aren't for everyone they require much time and attention. So thoroughly think it through before you get one.
If you can get a custom enclosure I highly recommend that, one with the sides as glass and the front and back wired. And as he said use some kind of drape for the back side of it, if you can get get some plants to drape on the back side your chameleon will be able to drink a lot easier when you mist it ( they will not drink from still water because it’s harder for them to recognize rather than dripping water. Good luck
I got a veiled chameleon last night she is about 4 months old and absolutely gorgeous, she seems to be comfortable in her new home but I do eventually want to be able to handle her. Not often but I want her to be comfortable enough to let me, does anybody have any tips to help her trust me and open up eventually :)
A yo thank you I for this this video was awesome my parents out of nowhere bought me the same kit and I was very overwhelmed but I really like how you made your enclosure it looks really nice I’m gonna take your idea and out the plant with the pot in their I really like that
Why not a great first pet for first first time reptile keepers I call bullshit on that because I got mine around July and I never never never in my life owned a reptile not even Chamaeleon but I’ve always wanted a Chamaeleon in my life he is well and he is growing up and he’s doing fine he does not like anybody else but he likes me he prefers me to pick him up in his cage and he doesn’t mind when he sees my appearance in his cage he actually runs for my hand and climbs up my my whole arm I actually hear a lot from different people they’re great for a first pet and now I hear they’re not a great first pet? And he always loves to be hold by me by other people he’s a little bit sketched out he runs on their hands and they move fast as they can to keep up with him but he runs because he wants to have my comfort I think it’s adorable I love my Chamaeleon he’s only six weeks old 🤍🤍😂
They can actually be handled plenty! It depends on how much you get em used to being handled from baby! The more you handle em the more comfortable they become with being held! And even have em outside there in closures.
i disagree with you .got a chameleon when i started with reptiles and my chameleon would rather be with me than in his terrarium. the hang of the chameleon either he is very social or not social and stay alone in his terrarium
I disagree with a chameleon being a first pet, and also handling. My veiled is 6 years old and enjoys being held, he free roams on my giant monstera and other plants near by. Soon as I open the cage he walks towards me and on my hand. It all depends on the chameleon and early handling. You have to learn at some point, But telling ppl not to get one for first pet is imo wrong. Just do your research and watch different streamers On chameleons.
could you provide more info? why is mealworms bad for chameleons? besides crickets, I also feed him mealworms, dubia roaches and sometimes hornworms for treats.

My biggest pet peeve is when people say not to get animals when they have them you were a beginner once
Yes get a beginner reptile he’s 100% right. This is just common sense. People get these animals then don’t do the shit they need to do to take care of them.
@@OhHesCrackedwhat if you knew everything to take care of them and you are still a beginner?

Theres a wild one living in a bush in my garden, but i want to bring it in and build an enclosure etc, im sure it will live longer if we feed it rather than it hunting for food ?
@@bfg69bug yeah if you take good care of it it'll live long
Another question does a chameleon need a heat lamp or can it just be the uvb light? Cause I know my leopard geckos need them but do chameleons really need one?
They need both
Good to know this. There is a chameleon at a pet store nearby who doesn't have an eye and has been there awhile. I'll be adopting him
update when you get him please i need that wholesome energy in my life 😂
@@k4pn I will! Getting his setup then him.
@@THISH265how is he
Just got my first veiled chameleon and needing some tips as well so far he likes his environment. I need to get another light cause as you said the one in the kit does not suffice.
Hey I’ve had mine for about a week . How’s yours doing ? What age is your chameleon
Where do you put Jerry while you clean his enclosure? I have a Jackson’s Cham.
I have a long wooden stick that I let him sit on while I clean and I stick it in a potted plant nearby...
@@LzvlogsVegas thanks,that’s a great suggestion. He absolutely hates being handled.
cool I have a vieled
I really want a Jackson’s chameleon however the place that sells them near me has them listed for like $175 which is a lot for me right now so I went with a veiled
I have a question, do you use 2 60w bulbs in your lighting? or just one?
One UVB lightbulb and one ceramic heat bulb, 2 60 w heat bulbs would fry your chameleon…
Im thinking about getting a chameleon and how often and how much do i feed them
Once or twice a day 5 or more crickets depending on how fast they take em'
I'm sooo passionate about chameleons. thank you!!
Wow. Super helpful!! I just got one today!!!! I’m so excited!! I would like to create her habitat with live plants.
Good enclosure setup, I personally owns a chameleons farming business in South Africa. I understand very well how much work goes into captive breeding of this particular species.
Dude, yours and my chameleon are literally twins lol. Ik they all tend to look pretty similar but I almost thought that it was my chameleon on my screen haha
Really? haha that awesome!
😂
Im getting stuff today then getting one tomorrow!
Is it true if they get to stressed they can die because I might be getting a chemileon
yes that is very true keep handling at a minimum
I have had many chameleons (they all lived for 3-5 years) and I still learned something! Thanks
You’ve had many and you didn’t know some of the basic information?? Sad. Poor chameleons.
i'm getting a chameleon and i live in sparks nevada what time should i have my electric mister spray?
Put a hygrometer in the cage and keep the humidity to 65 to 80 Degrees so spray about every 8 hours
I have a Panther Chameleon and want to put live plants in with it. I have here a Dracaena moonlight and a Fiddle leaf ficus,9Ficus lyrata Bambino. Do you know if they're safe? Thanks, Jimmy
Devils Ivy is the most preferable plant just make sure the soil isn’t wet all the time otherwise you’ll get root rot and the plant will die.
Do you know where I can get a UAV light?
theres always online but if you cant get one there for some reason you should be able to find one at petco/petsmart personally if you have one i like shopping at pet supplies plus
It's actually called a UVB You can get it at and reptile store, or pet store.
Thank you
Of course!
Very educational video!
Q: regarding the lighting, do you leave the lights on all day?
No, I have it on for 12 hours a day, Cause you need to simulate a day/night cycle.
@@LzvlogsVegas so u turn the lights off when u go to bed I’m guessing?
@@drshon2919 yeah I had them on 8am -8 pm
Yes they do change color to blend in with their environment. They actually change their color for many reasons and their environment is one of them.
Hey my name is Jere just like your chameleon Jerry !
@@LeonardoZavala-z6t 😭 what a coincidence!
Thank you, I will probaly not buy one cuz I think I couldn´t handle it species-appropriate. Good advices
This really helps bro
How did you do the dripping system?
I wouldn’t recommend dripping I would do spraying with a spray bottle
This is a very beautiful setup im sure he is going to enjoy his new habitat
I don't think you got that vine from the kit mine only came with the flemzy one I have the same kit as you
I bought that separately~
That's hilarious, I got a Bearded Dragon a month or so ago and named him Jerry. Great name :P
Right?~ 😭
How does it make the room smell? Fresh? Or it starys to smell?

One thing I’ve learned is that you can hand feed. If you feel comfortable with holding a cricket or worm in your hand.
Welp back to Petco I go I didn’t get enough I guess 😅
I cared for a beaded dragon / gecko am I ready?
…Tells us chameleons are super sensitive if held a lot… next clip shows chameleon being held..
Greta video!
Just because I held him in the video doesn’t mean I hold him all the time…

No substrate is better as it causes impaction if eaten

Bro for a chameleon his size, your enclosure is NOT big enough
I know because this was as starter kit I planned to get a bigger one once her grew bigger.
but we ended up trading him for a leopard gecko.
Don’t use a substrate they can choke on it
Not necessarily choke but it does cause impaction if eaten, meaning they cant digest it properly.
Bare bottom is best…
no I feed meal worms to my chameleon
No dont do that, they are very bad for chameleons
