Keeping a chameleon at home, how and what to feed
If chickens are kept in apartments and houses today instead of birds, tiger cubs replace cats, and crocodiles are quite satisfied with the owners instead of aquarium fish, then there is nothing easier to settle a chameleon in the house.
And it will not be any reptile that will live next to you, but a real, only a small "earth lion".
This is what the ancient Greeks called chameleons.
And they called these strange inhabitants of the planet so for their royal "mane" or "headdress", as you want.
Only with its folds it resembled a crown.
They even hunt with a certain mysterious meaning, without fuss, as if they are sure of their victory in advance.
Chameleons, slowly, with some dignity, approach their prey and at the moment of throwing throw out their tongue, capturing the unfortunate bug on it, turning into a treat.
Donot be surprised, but we are not the first who decided to try such a neighborhood with this reptile.
It was a "favorite" among the ancient Greeks and a kind of biological weapon used to destroy annoying insects 20 centuries ago.
At that time, the contents of the chameleons were kept in the strictest secrecy.
We are trying to uncover the secrets of" communication " with an ancient reptile that causes fear and horror in many.
The animal is too terrible to look at.
What attracts chameleons
First of all, the peculiarities of its biological structure:
a bright color that quickly changes to suit any color scheme of the environment; its tail, curled into a spiral and serving as an additional support point; a way of movement when it moves easily through the branches with the help of well developed two toed paws; a virtuoso mastery of a long tongue, thanks to which the chameleon is always full and satisfied with his life.
These abilities gave rise to legends and myths about the reptile, which have not yet been solved.
In Western countries, strange animals were delivered in large quantities.
Many of them died, which gave rise to the opinion that chameleons cannot exist in captivity.
But the breeders proved the opposite.
The main thing is their proper maintenance, in which a cute lizard will live longer and still give great pleasure to its owners.
The West became interested in the domestication of chameleons after the war, and in Russia the possibility of acquiring and maintaining such exotics appeared only at the end of the last century, namely in the 80s.
To get an idea of the way of life of chameleons, we add that they prefer to live in humid and tropical forests.
Their favorite place is tall trees and shrubs.
Therefore, chameleons are very rarely found "wandering" on the ground.
They descend to solid ground only in cases of urgent need.
What you need to know to keep a chameleon at home
Like any animal from the wild, the chameleon needs to create natural conditions.
They should be as close as possible to natural ones.
It is unlikely that it will be possible to create such a world in an aquarium, because a 200 liter terrarium will be the best option.
Spacious and vertical.
You also need a heater to maintain a temperature of 28-30 degrees and a humidifier to create humidity, about 70%.
Equip the terrarium with a metered ultraviolet study (UV lamp).
This is necessary for a small pet.
One of the walls of the terrarium should be tightened with a metal mesh, thanks to which the" room " of the animal will be well ventilated.
On the territory occupied by the chameleon, it would be good to place an artificial fountain, a small pond.
Place live plants, strengthen branches, because in the wild he spent almost all his life on shrubs and trees.
Which chameleons are better to keep at home
You can choose a pet from three types.
To date, they are the most popular, these are:
yemeni chameleon; leopard chameleon; common chameleon.
The largest ones can reach 50-50 cm, medium 25-30 cm, tiny up to 5 cm.
Males, as befits them, are not only larger, but also brighter in color.
And horns, i.e. outgrowths like horns, are more pronounced than in "fragile" females.
A young chameleon will be happy to consume large portions of food twice a day.
Note that he will not overeat, since he knows his own norm.
This is far from a glutton.
An adult individual feeds less than three times a week.
That's how many times in 7 days you will need to get ready for your pet.
You can feed him with tweezers or in a plastic feeder.
It will not be difficult to make it yourself.
How to feed a chameleon
What can be included in the animal's menu:
flies; locusts; mealworms; crickets; zoophobuses; small mammals: small lizards;
The chameleon will accept small pieces of citrus, fruit, bananas, grapes from you.
How to water a chameleon
This is what you need to pay special attention to.
Chameleons do not drink and do not lap from the drinker.
Although many people teach them to use an eyedropper.
In nature, reptiles drink droplets that flow down from the leaves.
Spray the terrarium plants more often, and your pet will be provided with water.
Do not forget to do this several times a day.
How to do cleaning in a terrarium
A chameleon should live in cleanliness, just like any animal.
This is the key to his health and mood.
In two weeks, it will not take much time to do general cleaning in the terrarium once.
Do not transfer the pet, let it stay there.
The little owner should get used to your hands.
The chameleon should take a sufficient amount of food, water and vitamins.
A healthy chameleon has clean eyes.
The colors vary from pale to bright.
He has a good appetite, the feces are well decorated.
The body is plump and elastic, the nose is dry, and the breath is free.
If you notice that the eyes are sunken, the skin color for two weeks is brown or faded, the feces are liquid or has an admixture of blood.
The pet has become passive and refuses to feed.
Mucus is released from the nostrils or mouth, the joints are swollen – these are signs that should alarm, and therefore take measures to save the animal.
Tips for keeping a chameleon at home
Chameleons are nervous animals, and therefore any stress causes harm to health.
Put your hands in the terrarium more often.
Fix something, install it, the pet should get used to them and their smell.
To know that his hands are not dangerous for him.
If the children want to pet or play with the animal, you should be there.
Before taking a chameleon to a "permanent place of residence", learn more about reptiles.
A terrarium for only one chameleon.
If you put a relative to it, it can negatively affect one of them.
If you have never kept a chameleon at home, buy a male.
Do not immediately pour out your tenderness and energetic admiration on a small animal.
For him, this is stress, which can end in death.
If you make friends with a chameleon, it will recognize you, take food from your hand, allow you to stroke itself.
The chameleon is an interesting creature that has its own characteristics, its own character and habits.
He will be your favorite and a spiritual rest.
And always remember that any animal requires attention and respect.
After all, it is also a full fledged inhabitant of our huge planet.
Have you decided to settle a chameleon on your territory yet?
