Hi there im looking at gettin 2 chameleons in 2 weeks, just wanted some advice really as i have never keept them.. i currently keep leopard geckos so i do have some reptile knowledge. i have also read up on chameleons but you tend to find a lot of the information on the net varies depending on who is writing it lol. thats why i like to ask in forums as i find i get the best advice. I was planning on keeping my male and female together when they arrived, but have been advised not to keep 2 chameleons of any sex together, does anyone out there keep theres together? Also on a scale of 1-10 how difficult are they to keep as a species? i just really need to know what i am getting into so i am prepard for when they arrive. i have currently seen a 4 foot tall vivarium it has wood but a glass front, some people say that it is not godo to keep them in glass as there reflection will stress them. so i was just wondering if anyone uses mesh vivariums, my worry with this is that they may get to cold as my house can tend to get chilly somtimes, this is because of my heating. it does not affect my leos as they have glass tanks that are nicely heated. Also when it comes to breeding would you advise against breeding a pair that were from the same mother and father? i do not feel this would be right as it would be like me sleeping with my brother if i had one yuck !! but the breeder who i asked is happy to sell them as a breeding pair. all i am wondering is will this cause long term health problems..I do love any animal that comes to live with me and i want to be able to offer them the best living conditions and food etc so they can lead a happy and healthy life. Any advice would be appriciated.
Thanks guys
