Hi! I'd just like to say that if you ever get the chance to buy a cameleon then get one they are lovely,they can be a bit moody but on the hole they are great! Me and all my kids (3,4,7 and 10)all used to feed him (george)from their hands and he used to come down onto the floor and tap the glasss then i'd open the door and he would come out and sit ontop of my curtians or on my sholder!unfortunatlly he died last year he lived to about 6.

i have taken my dragons back to the shop, for a few resons. after leving them to settle in for few days i notied they started to fight all the time and both stoped eating so i tryed everything i could think off, the set up was fine temp, lighting ect. i went back to the shop to make sure i was feeding them proply i tryed everything. i tryed to handle them they both were very agresive i noticed one started to look realy un happy i thort this could be stress so i stoped for a week no change. A friend of a friend who has had dragons for years came to cheek everything was ok and it wasnt my doing. He advised me to take them back to the shop as they were to young and small to have been sold. By now both dagons wernt active at all so as hard as it was i did. at the end of the day i pay that pet shop over £250 for the dragons and set up i didnt want them to die in hands as im a beginer with dragons im deverstated i keep wondering how they are but i think its best i dont know. oh and i did tell the RSPCA.

Sorry about the Dragons Jo, but i think you did the right thing.
What did the RSPCA say?
