I just got home from dropping him off at fedex. Anyone that prays please pray he gets there safely and healthy! Thank you! I’m just really sad but I know he will be better off with Jackson. I took some pictures before packing him up that I will post here. He was angry because I wrestled him out...

Does anyone know if there is a place to get a properly labeled box to ship dubia roaches in? Eustis is leaving tomorrow and I have a small dubia colony that I want to give away.

I received a box from a reptile shipping company to ship Eustice to Jackson but it only came with two canvas bags and a deli type dish with a lid. There’s no air holes in the box and it’s lined with styrofoam. Eustis won’t fit in the deli cup and if I put him in the canvas bag what will he hold...

Another member here is adopting Eustis and he needs to know what plant light I have and I can’t remember the name. It’s one of those square or slightly rectangular metal box with 3-4 rows of small lights. Does it ring a bell with anyone?

I hate that I am doing this but I’m just putting feelers out here for now. I have a severe low back issue that is going to need surgery and I won’t be able to take care of Eustis for maybe weeks. Is there anyone on here from Maine or nearby that might be able to take him? He will come with...

I have a small dubia colony and it’s done well for at least a year, I can’t remember for sure when I started it. They reproduce well. Recently I was going through the bin and noticed that I have way too many adults in there. Eustice won’t eat anything larger than a medium size dubia so what do I...

I’m wondering how I’m supposed to dispose of old uvb bulbs? I have several old uvb bulbs that I need to get rid of. Anyone know? Is it safe to put them in the trash?

Today I cut back the umbrella tree and the schefflera in Eustis’s enclosure because they were up against the top and then I went to Walmart and got him two new full pothos! One is a golden pothos and I’m not sure of the other but probably the same. I used the pot in a pot method so I can change...

I finally bit the bullet and ordered a solar meter 6.5R. I’m hoping it can put my worries to rest about Eustis’s tongue issue. I have changed to the repashy lod and ordered a new Arcadia 6% bulb. Fingers crossed his aim gets better!

Yesterday we had a snow/ice storm all day and into the night! It tore down power lines and tree limbs and the temp in my apartment plummeted to 59 degrees F! Last year I luckily invested in a box of hand warmers that you shake and they get hot. I had Eustis n his cage all night but then today I...

He’s looking a little dark but he was low down in his cage. He’s still looking for a girlfriend!

Eustis is having trouble targeting his bugs I noticed today. He kept missing and he finally just walked over to my hand and took the silk worm with his mouth. I replaced his Arcadia 6% uvb bulb last June so it should still be good. He gets reptivite with D3 once a month so I’m not sure what’s...

Do chameleons ever just put out urates without a poop? Eustis hasn’t pooped in like 2 weeks but I still find urates. Just wondering.

He loves them and ate 3 today. They aren’t very big but I’m hoping they will help him poop! He hasn’t pooped in over a week! I had to hand feed the silks to him because he wouldn’t eat them out of his dish. I don’t know if he couldn’t see them or what. The dish is white and so were the silks...

He’s doing well, still sheds every 2-3 months. I haven’t weighed him in a long time because he just hates coming out of his cage! Hes terrified of me touching him as well. I don’t know why because I’ve always been gentle and try to go under him to encourage him onto my hand but he just won’t...

And Eustis is roaming his cage and looking for a girlfriend! lol!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I’m so thankful for this forum and all the hardworking members who make it possible and work so hard to help everyone with awesome information and advice to keep their chameleons safe and healthy! Thank you!

I’ve been gone awhile due to health problems but I’m back now. Eustis is doing great, he just celebrated his 3rd birthday! Of course I’ve only had him 2 and a half years. He was approx 8 months old when I got him. Anyway I just wanted to say hi and Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

I walked into my apartment a while ago and smelled a strong mildew musky smell! I know it’s coming from my Jackson’s cage but what to do about it? I clean regularly the bottom of the cage and pour hydrogen peroxide all over the bottom and down into the drainage tray. I hadn’t done it in 3-4...

I’ve never seen Eustis, my Jackson’s, drink before but today I got to see him do it! I’ve often offered him water by putting a plastic cup with a pinhole in the bottom so it drips onto his leaves but he always just walks away. Today I noticed that he was paying a lot of attention to the mist...
