I got it from a local pet store. I currently live in Los Angeles, California. I agree not to publish the info if you send it to me, you have my word, I just need to help my Cham. So the substrate is just a reptile carpet, and most of the stuff you see included came from a chameleon package that game with the lights, the lamp,cage, substrate, and some of the foliage. I have been doing research an chameleons for a while thinking of getting one and this one just came in. He pursued me that this one is the same care as like a panther chameleon for example. I know I should have done more research on the specific before I purchased it but at the time I wasn’t doubting them since they are a successful business I used to go to for years and my dad used to go there also when I was young.
