opinion?

I was planning on getting a croton a pothos and a ficus tree... The only reason i was contemplating a feeding bowl, was to make sure he could find his food. Im not sure if he would find it under the dense foliage..

And your opinion: Wait up to 3-9 months for a rainbow phase panther. (6 months of incubation)
or get a veiled chameleon now...

anyone got a pic of a rainbow panther?

here's the major difference between the two, and i can get you a rainbow right now..........veileds are super agressive, panthers are generally a little more laid back. both are very hardy. panthers need more humidity. if you go to lllreptile, they have baby diego suarez for 139.99, and shipping is 29.

There isn't really a fixed image of how a rainbow panther looks like. A rainbow panther is basically a hybrid panther or panthers of one locale that have crossed with another, a "mutt" if i were to put it in a terribly blunt term.... But then again some people have difference interpretation of rainbow panthers. But tons of rainbows or mutts look much better than lots of pure locales.

Hi-

I would not worry about having to many plants with the three you listed. I don't know what size cage you have, but all sounds good. Crickets will crawl up the screen of the cage so the chameleon should not have any problems catching food. A bowl or cup works okay as well, if the chameleon will eat out of it. Make sure you provide a basking area, bio vines work great for this. Either a Veiled or Panther will make a great first time chameleon, I am partial to the F. pardalis locales, others are the same with Veileds. Rainbow panther doesn't tell us much, it could be a few different locales. There are many different breeders and lots of both on the classifieds. I would be cautious about buying a panther with out seeing a pic of the parents, unless you don't mind what the chameleon will look like. You get what you pay for. There is allot of pictures in the kingsnake photo galleryHope this helps!
