    Why does he want to walk in the floor???

    Hey guys, so I figured I would post an update - Rango is still roaming around, still on a schedule from about 9am - 3:30pm but he is now coming back to his tree when done. Hooray! Also in a thread I started concerning him being afraid of waxworms - he got over it and now that the weather has...

    Jackson afraid of Waxworms (Also diet question)

    Yup South Carolina, we have air conditioning but unfortunately as much as I would like it to warm up here and use it the weather is bent on being chilly :p I know he doesn't need to be hot, I just wasn't sure if his roams were leaving him too cool. He doesn't appear to be losing weight, I need...

    Jackson afraid of Waxworms (Also diet question)

    Yeah they wiggle around and he just acts uncomfortable, how much do you think he should be eating? I don't know what to do :/ He really wants that first cricket and after that he has no interest in food the rest of the day. I am not sure if its due to the very rapid random temp changes here...

    Jackson afraid of Waxworms (Also diet question)

    Hey there, Ive had my year old Jacksons chameleon for about a month now. He is free range and loves his crickets. Lately it has been kinda cool around the house because we are having weird weather here in SC. He has a tree under his basking lamp but tends to roam around most of the day. So my...

    Why does he want to walk in the floor???

    I know! I told my mom I am going to buy a nanny cam for him :p My mom told me to put a cam on him and have chameleon vision lol Who knows what sorts of things he is up to. Right now he has given up the floor wandering and is relaxing at the top of his curtain. I think he may be done for the day.

    Why does he want to walk in the floor???

    Nope Ive never seen him taste, but that doesn't mean he doesn't do it. I am not usually here during the day, but I have yet to see him do that this afternoon.

    Okay so here are pictures of his tree area and window. His umbrella plant and dripper are on a table behind the tree. Here are two pictures of him just now, finally content to sit on his vine.

    Why does he want to walk in the floor???

    I guess my problem is I don't know what else he needs. That was why I realized something was wrong with him in his terrarium, he wouldn't climb his trees or vines, he would just sit by the door and wait for me to let him out where he was happy to sit on the curtains. Now that he is out 24/7 he...

    Why does he want to walk in the floor???

    Yes maybe he is patrolling, I just picked him up and put him in his basking spot. He sat content for about 5 minutes then down the tree he goes. He is back marching across the living room again, I don't mind if wants to I just worry something is up but like I said he seems pretty cool about it...

    Why does he want to walk in the floor???

    Okay, so I have had my jacksons chameleon now for a month. I was told by the man I bought him from that he is "a little under a year old", he is eating and drinking well, and is very active. My original problem was I was housing him in a large exo terra terrarium, which I was told was ok. I have...

    Jackson sitting with mouth open??? Help Please

    Hey there, sorry I haven't been able to get online. Thanks for all the replies they are really helpful. Ok so an update, I have turned his heat lamp off and am only using the UV for his cage. I have bought him a fake tree and am letting him out in the afternoons to climb around on that. He...

    Jackson sitting with mouth open??? Help Please

    Yes I have a Flukers digital thermohydrometer, It says 81 for the temp and 71% for the humidity. Like I said I was told he could have a glass terrarium but when I went home and did research realized he could not stay in there. I am actually turning my spare room into my reptile room, so I was...

    Jackson sitting with mouth open??? Help Please

    Hey there, I have a new Jacksons chameleon male. I got him about two weeks ago from a reptile expo, he is captive bred. I have never had a chameleon before but I have several other species of reptile and amphibian, plus I am majoring in Herpetology so I figured I could handle him. My problem...
