 This
very typical and terribly incorrect
set-up was found in a pet store. The
picture
quality is not great because I
tried to take the
pictures
without being noticed. The idea is to show the DON'TS of
chameleon keeping. This female veiled was in an all glass
aquarium with a solid top. I was able to get them to put a
screen top on it,
 and I showed them how to make a dripper from a styro foam cup. Notice the way she came
right to the water when it was dripped in. It was already much
too late. If you look closely you can see
the dark rings around her sunken eyes. She was badly dehydrated
and probably suffering from a URI (Upper Respiratory Infection)
as well. Her tongue was dark yellow with black spots, not the
light pink that a healthy chameleon should have.
Bottoms are 1/8 inch
white high impact plastic. All cages are made with a solid bottom.
Yes we can make your
cage with a screen bottom. The wire color is charcoal . the
frame color is charcoal. All Corner's are mitered . Our cage can
be put in direct sunlight . Every cage is hand made ! The top as
well
 as
the sides are wire.
Yes! You can put a reflector (clip on fixture) directly on the
top for a basking light .
Custom sizes are no problem. It just takes a few days longer to
receive your cage. Yes ! You can disassemble your cage and
reassemble it in a new or different location.
The smaller size wire is *small cricket tight*, two weeks old
and older.
Lightweight, somewhat portable, well
made, affordable, easy to clean, and designed for chameleon
housing.

REPTARIUM
The REPTARIUM
takes into consideration the basic needs in terms of air,
hygiene and overall happiness of a
captive reptile. We feel that the well being of your reptile
will improve significantly with your use of the REPTARIUM,
a product designed not for fish, or a revision of a fish tank to
broaden their market, but solely for the explicit purpose of
modern reptile containment utilizing the most current
knowledge of reptiles and their unique yet simple needs. Walls
of the REPTARIUM are constructed of reinforced nylon.
Nylon is also cricket proof, where fiberglass is not. The
openness of our mesh allows the reptile to feel less like it is
enclosed and allows full sensory perception of it's
surroundings.

Can
be hard to clean, the black has a slight problem with
visibility (good for the cham bad for the chamowner), the white
looks much better for visibility. Not a bad choice and comes in
many sizes.
CHAMELEON CANOPY
 The
TOP DOME creatively conceals both the lighting
system and the drip system. It also keeps chameleons from
escaping because they can not grip on to the wide smooth rim. On
the rear side of the Top Dome is a fill spout for adding water
to the adjustable flow rate drip system. The CONFINEMENT
BOWL prevents chameleons and live prey items from
escaping. Its smooth inner surface keeps crickets and chameleons
from scaling the wall. The system also keeps crickets from
climbing up the ropes-- they are always trapped inside of the
confinement bowl. Only your chameleon can explore the free
climbing area.
Unique,
interesting appearance, GREAT roaming cage, difficult to control
temp and humidity-only suitable for limited species if used as
permanent home.
