Hi All! I had just fed Oliver this morning when I realized he does the funniest little thing right before and after he eats. He will always lick his lips right before he shoots for a bug, and right after he swallows. Maybe all chameleons do this, I'm not sure, but I found it super funny...
Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - Panther chameleon, male, 11 months old. I've had him about 7 months
Handling - Not often, only when necessary. I've been working on it though, and he willingly walked onto my hand about a week ago (but I think it freaked him out)
Feeding - Crickets and super...
So today I decided that I would re arrange and deep clean Oliver's cage. I plan to post pictures later, but I just have one question:
Do I really need to have a (live) tree in there? I was ready to put it in when I looked at the cage and thought of how nice it would be to just wipe down the...
I've had Oliver a little over 6 months now, and he is so beautiful! He is about 11 months now and I just have 1 question.
Lately Oliver has been eating alot less. Today he ate 1 super and 3 crickets. Everything in his environment is the same except the fact that I added some new branches...
Oliver is just under 10 months old now, and he's showing some pretty good color. :)
Here is a picture of him Saturday, it was his first time on the free range
I built him. :)

My question is what can hornworms eat? I bough my first batch about 1 week ago, and they are getting huge!! I'll probably keep a few and let them turn into moths. But what can I feed them to keep them alive? They came with the "Hornworm Chow", and it is almost out...
So today I've just been hanging out in my room with my panther Oliver. Every once in a while, I'll look over and see him just biting at the air. Earlier he shot his tongue at the screen of the cage, with no bugs to be found. He seems to be getting pretty frustrated and upset... what do you think...
Lately I've been seeing TONS on grasshoppers running round. I've seen people on here talk about home made grasshopper catchers, and I was wondering what you use?
Also, would grasshoppers be a fine daily feeder? While they're in season here anyways
Recently I've been a little shocked at how little color my 9 month old ambanja panther Oliver has. I posted a tread about it and everything. (Thread also expressing my concern for size, but I recently found out he is a good size).
But then I started seeing more and more pictures of young...
THis is my 9 1/2 old panther chameleon. I noticed today this bump on his mouth. I'm willing to take him to the vet if I have to, but I honestly don't have the money, and would rather not risk stressing him out.
Please let me know if you think I need to take him to the vet. I already called...
Hi guys!!
I was just wondering what kind of camera you use?
Do you like it?
Would you recommend it?
What do you use it for?
Cost?
I've been looking for a nice camera for a while, and I was just wondering what you guys would recommend? :D
So I've had my chameleon almost 5 months now, and he is about 9 1/2 months old. I've seen so many pictures of Panthers much younger, but still quite a bit larger and colorful. Oliver is about 8-9 inches long, and while I see him getting more and more color, it is still minimal.
I feed him 9...
So the last couple days, my chameleon has been a little cranky. I couldn't figure out why, because I hadn't really changed anything in his routine. A few minutes ago, I walked into my room and saw this! Thinking more, about a week and a half ago, I started feeding him superworms (because he...
So I had a thread before, getting your guys' opinion on stand sizes, and what you guys have.
SO I decided that I'd show you guys what I founf. :) My perfect surface dementions would have been 24"x 30". I went garage saling today, and found this drawer/stand thing. I think it is supposed to...
Today my chameleon has been quite on edge. I haven't changed anything in his daily routine, but every time I even walk up to his cage, he puffs up super big, and just stares at me until I leave. I went to put some more food in his enclosure (He dropped his food cup into the dish that catches...
I am trying to find some sort of stand to put my chameleon cage on. Right now Oliver is just in a 18x18x36 inch cage, but I will be upgrading him to his big boy cage (24x24x48) in a few months. I'm having trouble finding anything that would be able to hold a cage, with a depth over 13".
So I...
I found my camera charger, so I decided I would take some pics of little "Olli Pocket as I call him. :D
He's a 9 month old ambanja panther from Kammerflage Kreations. He doesn't have too much color yet, but the color he has is really beautiful. So I'm sure he will be lovely when he grows up. :)
I have a 9 month old male panther chameleon. I'm looking to buy some worms offline. Is he big enough to eat hornworms? I know the general rule that the length of food should be the length between their eyes, but I've seen adult chameleons eat bugs much larger than even their head. Do you think...
So I have an 8- 1/2 year old male panther chameleon, and he has grown a lot since I got him, but I see pictures of chameleons around his age and they look so much bigger.
I currently feed him between 12-14 1/2 to 3/4 inch crickets a day (the amount depends on the size), and about every other...
I have read the safe plant list, but I dont really remember anything about Lilacs. We are cutting down out lilac tree (I think they are trees?) and I was wondering, if I strip the bark, If it would be safe like that? Or do I still need to either bake, or do the boiling water system?:confused...
