Hi everyone.
I'm considering purchasing my first chameleon. I was wondering what I need as far as setup. Is there a checklist.
Also, I am planning on getting a screen enclosure. What is the best size to get if I want to not have to upgrade? Also, can you place heat lamps on these?
Also, what is the best kind to get for a beginner? our local shop just got in some veiled chameleons that are so cute. How much should I expect to pay for one?
as far as feeding. any alternatives besides crickets? I don't mind them as an occasional treat if thats possible.
Thanks
