This book covers all aspects of the care for exotic chameleons in South Africa and elsewhere, from housing, lighting, feeding through to a chapter on health issues. All the species likely to be encountered in South Africa – or anywhere else – are covered with their own chapters.
Although aimed at keeping chameleons in South Africa, this book contains considerable valuable information for chameleon keepers in any country. Here you will find reliable information on UV light, vitamin and calcium supplements, and a lot more.
Most chameleon books are focussed on people living in either the US or Europe. This book bridges the gap between those countries and the rest of the world, where copying those conditions won't work. I've used the same techniques in Malaysia and Mexico with great success.
