If you are a new chameleon hobbiest owner or are about to take that plunge into chameleon ownership, this is the ONLY book you will need.

It covers feeding, caging, care specific to many different and exotic species, and basic medical information as well. The book is well written and covers topics thoroughly. The pictures are superb and the author's personal experience keeping chameleons and other herps is very reassuring and lends to her credibility. I wish I had got this book first, if I had, I would have never bought the deVosjoli or Bartlett books. I spent way more than twice the cost of Davison's book buying 5 or 6 other books about chameleons--all of which have outdated, incorrect and/or incomplete information.

I WAS LOOKING FOR THE QUINESSENTIAL BOOK, WRITTEN FOR THE HOBBIEST, ON THE HUSBANDRY (aka CARE) OF CHAMELEONS.....I OWN EVERY ONE OF THE BOOKS CURRENTLY AVAILABLE ON AMAZON.COM IF YOU DO A SEARCH FOR "CHAMELEON" OR "CHAMELEONS" BUT, I PROMISE YOU, NONE COMPARE TO LINDA DAVISON'S BOOK! SHE HAS GIVEN US A BOOK THAT IS AS CLOSE AS YOU CAN GET TO FINDING THE PROVERBIAL DEFINITIVE BOOK.

P.S. If you are a chameleon owner and you do NOT have this book, no kidding, you do NOT know what you are missing!

Nov 20 1999 This book is the most up-to-date and user friendly chameleon book available on the market today. Filled with a lot of practical tips and colorful pictures. This book is a must have to anyone who has a chameleon or anyone who wants to learn more about chameleons.

This book saved me and my chameleon. Chameleons are very sensitive creatures in captivity and there is so much to learn about them. I purchased this book and found it gave me the information I needed to keep my little friend alive and healthy.There is so much incorrect information in other books. I have them all. In my oppinion, this is the only one I needed. I could have saved some money if I got this one first.It has all the latest tips and information. Thank you Mrs. Davison for your book. Lana

I have all the chameleon books currently available and this is the one I always go to for information. I have bred my Veiled Chameleons and have treated quite a few health problems using the information found in this book. This should be the first book you buy when you are thinking of owning these wonderful animals.

I have purchased five books on chameleons in preparation for buying one as a pet. I found that several of the books contained conflicting information or not enough. This book was full of accurate and helpful information. I confirmed this with a local breeder! I have refered to this book quite a bit. Buy this book first!

this is the book to get. what more can be said. seems pricey but it is worth every penny.

One of the best Cham books out there for beginners. Chameleon husbandry Information is hard to find in book form. I as one of the above reviewers stated also have all the cham books on husbandry on amazon[.com], and this one is the best. I recommend finding a breeder and talking to them, that is the only way to get the most up to date info on chameleon care.

I am very impressed with this book. I am always looking for more information on my favorite animals. This book has a lot of information that I haven't found in any other publication. It's simple and thorough and covers all aspects. I highly recommend this book to any chameleon hobbyist.

This book is old and talks about solving calcium problems that have been solved many years ago. I advise looking for something else more recent if you want to care for your Chameleon
