The Lights are 10.0 UVB bulbs. Brand Zilla. The exact kind recommended for chameleons. the heat light is a 75w red bulb.. I turn all lights on during day and off at night.
The cages were next to each other
It was my initial thought that maybe they got cross contaminated.
But could a...
He seems to be getting worse by the minute. Now he is laying his head on the branch with his front feet limply dangling...
going to call tomorrow for emeregency visit to get him in asap.
But any other diagnosis would be helpful if these symptoms sound familiar
Your logic is reasonable when it comes to the parasites.
The reason for my concern is that he just suddenly stopped eating, and he hasnt moved much at all and his eyes have been closed all day.
I dont think it is the lighting because I use 10.0 UVB and since I recently lost my Jackson...
I ahve a vet scheduled at the soonest possible time with the only exotic Vet in town. He hasnt pooped, or eaten in the last couple days so I dont know if I will be able to bring in a stool sample.
If they are not eating/pooping does that disclude the possibilities of a parasite?

I have a 10 month old Panther Chameleon. He has always been very lively. As of recently He has grown very lathargic. He has not moved nor opened his eyes all day. When he walks he walks with his rear legs really far apart. I would imagine that he is impacted. However I have nothing in his...
So I just got a subadult jackson chameleon. he is about 6 inches long. He doesnt seem to be very active. I had a veiled chameleon a while back and he was full of energy and very out going. My new jackson just stays in one place and doesnt do much of anything. I notice he eats crickets when they...
Hi. I was wondering what would be the least stressful way to get my chameleon through a hectic day of moving. Its gonna be a 12+ hour process. My plan was to put him in a box with some holes in it. Holes big enough for his feet to latch onto so hes not sliding around in the box. Ill be sure to...
Yes Im checking the prices there now... its much cheaper!
Thanks for refering it to me guys.. I think I might buy a Emperor Scorpion for only $7.99 LOL! I could keep it in my old cricket cage... and feed it crickets... Does anyone know if they have special requirements?
Okay.. Ill probs get that cage then. Cuz that is the exact size you recomended...
And a correction on the light size. Its 18inches... So Would you recommend a 5.0 UVB or 10.0 UVB 18 inch for that size cage?
and where could I get one of those plant lights?
Hey so I have a couple questions before I make a purchase.
First off, My chameleon is getting quite a bit bigger than when i first got him. Im Looking at new cages for him. Can anyone provide me a link to a good sized cage that I could use permanently??
I was looking at buying the largest...
Ya, this is a smalltown in Iowa. There might be a bait shop... but I doubt they have any during winter..
I have some small fish in my aquarium.. Could I feed him one of those?
Ive seen ppl do it on youtube! lol
I ran out of crickets today. I placed an order on Ghann's for 1000 crickets yesterday. So I was hoping to get them tomorrow or the next day... They pulled a fast one on me and wont be shipping them out till Monday. So I probably wont have any food for him untill next Tuesday. And there are no...
