Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

None. If you are looking for a friendly pet, get a dog. Some Chams will tame down a bit but the rule of thumb is these are display pets only and taming down is on a case by case basis and not guaranteed for any species.

well,i used to have a adult male chameleon but died.but i still have a adult female . they were pretty easy to tame but they never were agressive but some times she will hiss. so if u want a easy species to tame or to keep go with a veiled they are also cool when they get older especially the males they they will get a huge veied the only one problem with them(if u had one)is there sharp nails they have such sharp nails that my old males nail went right through my finger . but if they are trimed often they will not hurt.all i can say is this is the best one.
yes, chams get stressed so easy, so you should leave them alone. sure some chams seems to like you, but again, they are not pets.
I would say senegalensis or j.merumontanus, but I don't think it has that much to do with the temper of the species, because no cham are the same.

I dont know about you guys but my male panther is about as tame as they come. When I open the door of his inclosure he ll walk right up to my hand and climb on it. He never even yells or threatens me...
To me the best way to tame a cham is to get him as a baby that way he ll be used to you. Worked for me.

if he is only 8month, then i think he has nice colours. hmm I never really use reptisun, because i use one big 300watt uvb bulb 15min 2 times a week and when its hot enough (I live in a cold area) then i keep them out side.

Use that UVB source along with his basking lamp for 12 hours a day, everyday. He will need to get between 6-12 inches from the UVB tube. Don't let anything get inbetween the tube and him (no plastic or glass) except for the screen of the enclosure and he will get enough UVB. Real outdoor sunshine is best when it is available.
