I'm thinking about getting a chameleon....?

Question

Are they hard to take care of and maintain? And what kind of materials will I need before I get one>?

Answer 1

i was doing some research about chameleons myself and came across this website:

www.chameleonnews.com

i think i's got all the information you need.

there's even an article about the cost of keeping chameleons:

Answer 2

Chameleons are pretty to care for because they are such fragile animals, but are very cool and most are docile/tame. I would start out with something simpilar if your not an experienced reptile keeper like a leopard gecko, bearded dragon or even a crested gecko.

All animals are easy to care for no matter what you get. Its just that some require more time and effort for feeding, cleaning and ect.

I dont know much about Chameleons but i do know that some need pretty big enclosure with climbing areas.

Good Luck.

Answer 3

Chameleons are among the hardest reptile to take care of please start off with something simpler like maybe a gecko start off at geckosunlimited.com/ but you need to research research research!

You could handle a chameleon if you read lots and research them for a while they are not the beginner reptile but if you really want one and you are willing to spend some serious $$$ on them go ahed but please research for the sake of the animal it is possible but I would start off with something easier than a chameleon they are cool but honestly I don't find them worth it I'm a gecko guy I guess and don't think geckos are easy with the exception of a few species.....

But again please research (somewhere else) and read about them make sure you can handle on these are not impulse pets.

Best of Luck
