Panther Chameleon, The Best Pet Lizard?

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

Chameleons are incredible pet lizards, but they are also difficult pets to keep. Clint looks at one of the best pet chameleons, the panther chameleon (Furcifer pardalis), to determine if this is the right pet reptile for you.

    Reptile keeper here! I have worked with several chameleons but I wanted to share the story of my panther Fauna. Having quite a few reptiles, so I have to get a lot of feeders. The employees at petstores know who I am at this point. My friend who is a manger at a location pulled me aside and told be about this cham in another town who was in pretty horrible shape. I was she had problems with her tongue and had mbd. I was also told she was 5 months old and had two different homes, including the petstore. Neither of these homes temporary or not cared for her well. After a couple of days I drove two hours to this location. I was unsure what to expect but what you are thinking she is like is an understatement. She was the size of a two month, had a noticeable kink in her tail and her front and back arms were completely misformed and almost u-shaped. You could see bone and it was quite obvious that she had multiple fractures before. Her ribs were visible and her mouth is fused open, her tongue could barely fit in her mouth so every so often it would fall out of her mouth. I was tearing up as I saw such awful care over this poor animal. I was also furious when they td me about her husbandry and care. From what they told me she lived in a 5 gallon aquarium as it fit her size and she ate twice a week. They used no supplements or special lighting because "she wasn't going to last longer anyway" I bought her for half price and took her to my local vet right after. She was on 4 antibiotics and had to get fluids that day. Now over a year later the chameleon that "wasn't going to live long" is able to hunt and climb on her own. She is a perfect weight and is the queen of her own castle. The care she had for a good portion of her juvenile years WAS NOT OKAY. Chameleons are very docile animals, but they are also absolutely incredible creatures. I wanted to share Fauna's story to one, sway you away from chams, don't get a chameleon unless you are an expert and have done your research. Because a chameleon's health goes downhill fast if you don't know what you're doing. Two, I wanted to share what love and correct care can do for an animal. Reptiles are beautiful and incredible animals, every day with my little zoo is a beautiful one, through rehabilitation, injections and all. Every living creature holds a place in my heart. I am truly lucky to have my reptiles and my life, as well as to have such a wonderful resource like Clint. I have been watching this channel for over two years now! Thank you Clint for being a ray of positivity ❤️ If you want to see pictures of my little zoo or more stories about my other rescues follow me on Instagram, only if you would like ! @Wilted_Flowerchild

    I'm an owner of a Masoala panther chameleon and I have to say, no amount of research can prepare you for how difficult they can be to look after. I got the best set up money can buy, do everything right by how they need gutloaded insects, dusting etc etc but still my chameleon got sick and it's taken weeks to just show a small amount of improvement. If you decide to get a chameleon make sure you have an excellent local reptile vet before you purchase one and do as much research as you possibly can. They are very rewarding animals but you need a never ending money pit.

    Great video. My veiled chameleon, Vladimir, lived free in my apartment. I set up a very large area with him in my bay window with grape vines, ficus trees, pothos vines and so on. I would mist it all the time, and leave mesh with ice cubes for him to see water dripping. He only left that area once, he went to my computer desk and while he hated me (lol) and wouldn't take my hand, he accepted the handle of my swiffer and was safely transported the 10 feet he traveled back to his area and he never left there again. He only liked me when he saw his purple feed cup coming, or if I was eating tomatoes, which he loved. He was such an ass but he was so fun! Forever grumpy

    I have had four chameleons. They're quite a bit of work because of the lightning, misting, and feeding. They do eat a lot. But they're great because they can just sit on your shoulder and you can forget about them. They tend to be cleaner than a lot of other reptiles, because they don't crawl around at the bottom of the cage. Chameleons are generally among the best lizards when it comes to capturing the attention of children. They tongues, eyes, skin, hands, etc. give them a lot of perks.

    So my first reptile was a panther chameleon named Darwin. Admittedly I rushed into it and let me tell you NOTHING prepares you for all the work these little guys require. I remember the first time I had to leave home and have someone else care for him and I just worried sick about all the feedings and misting. It’s kinda like being thrown in the deep end of reptile rearing. Darwin lived to the age of 5 and honestly rearing him was one of the greatest experiences of my life. That being said I definitely recommend sticking to beardies/leopard geckos for your first reptile. Though panther chameleons can be done as a newbie it takes so much work and they really aren’t a lizard that’ll tolerate a learning curve

    Clint, love the fact that you are so honest. These guys are not easy and having had them for 15 years I have told many people some of the same things you did here. That they are difficult and don't live long. Actually had one Panther from the wild that lived for 3 years and he was sick when we got him. He was a pet shop rescue, had toenail trauma and a respiratory infection. $400 dollars later we had a chameleon with 1 less toe and a bag full of meds. Would I change my decision that day, no Spin had the best life he could have had considering how he started out here in the US. We have had Veiled, 4 horned, Jackson and Panthers. Most of our Panthers were Ambanja like you have there today. They have the greatest personality. Veiled are cool too. My Louie lasted 5 years. He was a pistol. When the Budweiser lizards came out, we got the Tshirts. Louie thought my husband was carrying a lizard around. Finally he had to take that shirt off because Louie wanted to attack that lizard. I do miss them and one day maybe I will have another. Thanks again for the honesty in this upload. 🐊 ✌🏻❤🐊

    hi clint. i know this video isn’t super recent, and i almost never comment on things. but i just wanted to tell you how much i appreciate people like you putting accurate information about chameleons out there. i’ve been keeping reptiles and amphibians since i was ten years old, focusing mostly on frogs until recently (now i’m a bit obsessed with new caledonian geckos). in the 18 years i’ve been doing this, i never wanted a chameleon, because along the way, i learned about them - i learned that they are mean, high-maintenance, and short-lived. and then, less than two months ago, a friend texted me out of the blue asking if i could take in someone’s unwanted chameleon. when i saw the conditions he was being kept in, i was horrified and i did a lot of research before agreeing to take him in. and i’m so glad i did. he’s changed every previous opinion and perception i had about chameleons. he’s not a panther like you show here (he is a 3-year-old veiled), but he’s amazing all the same. in the short time i’ve had him, he’s taught me a lot, and i think the most important thing is that this is one of those animals a person needs to be able to fully commit to, every single day of its life, to give it the life it deserves. but if you can do that, it’s the most rewarding animal you’ll ever have. i’ve been working with mine and establishing trust with him and it’s the single most rewarding thing i’ve done in all the years i’ve kept exotics. i wish everyone could reasonably provide for these animals because i think everyone who’s considering it should experience proper ownership of one just as something to cross off the bucket list. they are spectacular beyond words. i can’t describe how amazing it is to share my home with such a gorgeous living dinosaur.

    Anna first off, i wouldn’t say burdening. I like chameleons because they are a species of reptile that is hard to tame, and i love a challenge! Everything about panther chameleons is super cool in my opinion, i know about all the care and i know the breeders i have to get one from. This reptile may not be for you but that doesn’t mean it isn’t for someone who has kept reptiles for years. What i mean is everyone has their own preference. Some people love geckos, some love snakes, for me, i love lizards and chameleons are my favorite! Right next to the blue tree monitor, varanus macrei. I don’t mind paying for the cost because if you know you could take care of an animal for many many years for 250, 350 or 400 including enclosure, why wouldn’t you? People do the same with dogs, my old cavalier king charles spaniel was a lot of money but i had her for 11 years.

    What rescue are you with? It's awesome that you take chameleons! Very few reptile rescues will take them and even fewer are actually equipped to rehabilitate them and soooooooo many are in need of help. Mostly do to those awful chameleon kits pet stores sell that are just a recipe for MBD.

    I love how truthful you are on this about chameleons. I currently have veiled chameleons witch are the grumpiest chameleons. I wouldn’t ever recommend a chameleon for a pet to anyone being one a chameleon is not a pet it’s a hobby. You never stop working on your husbandry.

    Great video on the Panther Chameleon! I had a Veiled Chameleon years ago and would not recommend as a pet. They are commonly sold in the pet trade and priced low, but very aggressive. I did have a big male, which is probably why it was aggressive and did not like being handled as an adult.

    Aaaaaaaahhhhh!!!!! That was great Clint and Company :)) Thanks for doing this vid on the awesome panther chameleon. I agree with your scoring and reasoning. I rescued a baby veiled from a neglectful pet store last year. Ive kept pets always, and several reptiles, and I did a ton of research. It was a horrid experience for all. She had such bad health, I spent hundreds of dollars, and so so so much time and energy...she had a sad miserable life for 9 months. Handling her to medicate her and feed her by syringe was so stressful to her, and it made her absolutely hate me. Chams are a difficult pet fer sure. I cringe whenever I see one sold at a pet store or expo. All that said, I still plan to purchase a healthy panther from a breeder in two years. I have all equipment/supplies needed already - I am so excited! Thanks again for an honest video :))

    Unfortunately happens all too often with chameleons. There's some great groups on Facebook that will help you make sure your enclosure is setup for the next one. I did 9+ months of research and I have a mentor from a group and I'm still figuring some things out with my panthers.

    He is beautiful! I had a veiled Chameleon and now have a Jackson Chameleon, like you said when taking him out of the tank he is very cranky and will keep his mouth open. He’s never bites though and once he’s out he’s very calm. He really likes my curtains and he curtain rail, no matter what he always makes his way there. He’s not full grown yet but he is a decent size and he has his beautiful 3 big horns. Panther Chameleon’s are definitely on my list of other Chameleons that I want to own on the future.

I did notice the uvb pictured in the video was a T8 setup, though it can work, most chameleon keepers have moved on to T5HO fixtures for better UVB output.

He even has a branch on the breakfast bar so he can hang out why i eat! He has never bitten me or puffed up. My veiled cham is a different matter, he is a grump and protests even when he gets to climb on the climbing wall i built. But I love them both :-)

    My brother has over a dozen of reptiles, this is my favorite. He's the chillest and comes at the door of its enclosure asking to come out every time someone is in the room. Open the door, give him your hand and he's just climb as long as you'll let him go. Once you're done, and put your hand in front of a branch so he can get back in his enclosure, he turns around and to avoid going back in. Never seen any sort of aggressive behaviour. My brother got lucky, he's the sweetest!
