Settling in Great!!!

Well i've had neo now for a few months and let me tell you, this boy is so SPOILED!!! Not only does he get most of my attention but, If i think it will be benificial to him i get it. Recently i added a double flouresent bulb ( one is a 5.0 uvb, and the other is a plant bulb). Then i decided he should have more leaves (or shelter) so he would feel more comfortable( the haha i see you but you don't see me thing) or that's how i would like him to feel.

I just recently ordered him some silkies (his first time ever getting them) and some horn worms (first time also). I just hope he likes them.

I believe he's also going into a slight brumation. He was waking up later than normal and going to sleep pretty early so i set his photo period down to 10 hours of light a day. he only eats a little bit each day (which is good, because he was a HUGE pig when i first got him, eating 25 plus bugs a day.) That's all from previous owner ship which i believe i wasn't too late from being able to save him. anyway enough rambling i'll show you some pics. Hope you enjoy.


This was neo a week after i got him.


And this was his cage after it's first revamp. When i first recieved him all he had was a ficus tree a water bowl (don't know why) and a few fake plants (not nearly enough for a cham).


Here are the pics from today.

These are 2 close up pics of neo. I can tell the change in apperence, and his attitude since i first got him. When i used to open the cage he would try to hide, and now he fully stands his ground like he's saying "this is my territory GET OUT!!!!"




Here's his cage all set up with his new fake plants (still waiting for the purple jew from my mom) and new floresent fixture.


This one shows how horrible my brown thumb is. LOL the ficus was dying until the new lights got on it. Now it's showing signs of new leaves. And neo telling me to leave him alone.


This one is a close up of the area he spends most of his time in. He's either under his basking lamp on the left or he's in the far back corner hiding under the uvb lamp and fake leaves. That's his spot that he doesn't think i can see him.


Thanks for looking

Jamie

P. S. Trace ahhhhh Help!!!! I saw a female and thought she would be a perfect match for neo. My boyfriend is half tempted to get her (to make me happy), If only we had a spot to put another cage. You can go right ahead and tell me "I told ya so" lol. Yep i'm lost to the chameleon addiction.

I still have alot to learn before i even attempt breeding.
