    Laying Bin

    I’ve never seen a carpet chameleon irl, so not sure just how small they are. I think that depth would be ok, but not certain.

    Bare floor is best, unless you set up a true bioactive. Usually that is best left for after you get the hang of the basics, so bare floor for now.

    New chameleon not eating

    I think you know what I’m going to say. :) Get a fecal to rule out parasites. Is he showing any interest in drinking that you can determine? Maybe try covering at least 2 sides of his enclosure so he feels more secure. Does he have enough plant cover to hide in? If he’s used to eating...

    I keep my crickets in the garage. Every now and then there will be an escapee that chirps incessantly, but usually I can tune them out. It might not work, but I have found that if you put a piece of egg carton out near where the stray cricket(s) are, they sometimes will hide under it. Banded...

    As it is nearing the holiday season, it’s almost a certainty that the chain pet stores will be having some fantastic sale prices on ReptiBreeze enclosures. Or maybe you could even have Jax ask your family’s Santa’s for one…I’m positive he’s been the best boy ever this year. 😊 When making a...

    Lucky’s eye

    Hey folks. Thought I'd share what’s going on with my fella Lucky’s left eye. Maybe someone has a similar experience and can offer up input or what the end result was. Maybe in the future, this can be of help to someone else who may have this issue. As some of you know, Lucky was living wild...

    I realize I forgot to post some pics of my enclosures. (Typical for me 🤪) Perhaps that’s for the best though, as I’ve added one that I think you might benefit from seeing. Let me give you a bit of my history with chameleons though. I didn’t even really know what a chameleon looked like irl when...

    UVB-Baskin’ Rango

    Sweet handsome fella. 💗 He may not like the bamboo as it is quite slick and slippery, especially if it gets wet. Usually we advise against the little bridges and ropes as it can entrap claws and pull them out. However, in Rango’s case I do see that a bridge can be very helpful for him. I would...

    Okey doke…I’m back. :) You’ve already been given the feeder graphic. For his size, I’d try 1/2” feeders. The general rule is to keep feeders smaller than the space between the eyes. For wormy feeders, we go by the diameter of them, but also just kind of instinct about them too. Hornworms can...

    health question- worried owner!

    I think he should be okay, especially if he didn’t touch any skin where you had put the balm. Of course, as you probably already do, just keep an eye on him.

    I’m currently away from home and unable to give much of a reply. When I get back home, if no one else adds their help, I’ll be back to you with more.

    Three things about Antwan that worry me…

    Hi. Antwan looks good and I love his enclosure. Was there maybe something that spooked him before he stayed in his sleep spot? One of my boys will come running as soon as he sees me open his door…usually. Often it’s difficult to put his bugs in his feeding station because he’s climbed on my...

    Help me

    If you’re in Florida, I can possibly help you find one. If you’re elsewhere, another member is awesome at helping find vets…just let us know your general vicinity. Usually we have to travel a bit for the good vets experienced with chameleons.
