    baby chameleon closed both eyes please help!!!

    Vitamin A can be complicated a bit. There are two forms of it - beta carotene (proformed) which is from vegetable sources and is water soluble. We aren’t sure that chameleons are able to fully utilize this form. The other form is retinol (preformed), which is from animal sources and is fat...

    Phew! The D3 is used for just one feeding every other week. Did you buy a combination D3/multivitamin? If not, you will also need a multivitamin which will also be used for one feeding every other week, but not the same feeding as you give the D3. Usually they are alternated every week, so for...

    Yay for eating! BUT…. Are you using calcium with D3 at every feeding? If so, stop immediately! He’s gotten overdosed on D3. It’s a fat soluble vitamin, meaning it takes time for the body to excrete it and it can build up to toxic levels. There’s little to no way to undo an overdose, other than...

    Veiled at petsmart

    Ok @jamest0o0 . The forum has decided it. You need to go get that beautiful male veiled without delay. Right now Mary Lou Who could be counting her allowance to see if she has enough to buy him and the original chameleon death kit while she entertains carrying ‘Pascal’ around everywhere just...

    Veiled at petsmart

    Well, I already told you that both of my male veileds have been shy. Neither ever showed any hissing or aggression. I got bit once by Lucky when giving him an abt injection and it accidentally went right thru his poor little arm…I deserved the bite. Lucky will come over when I’m getting the...

    Veiled at petsmart

    Yes! Do it! While I’ve only had two of each gender, I find my males were more shy than anything. It’s my girls who are very spicy. I think we all feel the same about chain pet stores, but my Stella came from a Petco and not only is she gorgeous, but she’s now about 7 1/2 years old. Think about...

    Full adult ones just ready to pupate may be, but small to medium ones should be ok. Stealing a graphic from a cricket vendor here, I believe the size your baby needs is about 1/8”, or about 0.3 cm. It’s better to go a bit too small than too big. It’s no problem for your chameleon to need to eat...

    Well, you need to get him something to eat now. He can’t wait. Maybe the shop will have some other type tiny feeders. Bean beetles, fruit flies, freshly hatched roaches, small black soldier fly larvae, baby silkworms, etc. Talk to the people at reptile shops, ask the person who you bought him...

    baby chameleon closed both eyes please help!!!

    I’m so glad that you posted this pic. Those crickets are way too large for him to eat. He needs much much smaller food. His food should be around 2 mm in size…tiny. I’m not sure how your reptile shops are, but here they don’t generally carry such tiny feeders, except for fruit flies. We have to...

    He should have a feeding station inside of his enclosure instead of taking him out to eat. This is similar to the style that I like and use...

    If it doesn’t make any change, do take your pretty lady to a good vet.

    What is the screening made out of? Usually it is a steel screen, which won’t melt. You may need to get steel screening and replace whatever you have with it.

    First bioactive enclosure!

    I forgot to add…on the very bottom, below the root pouch, I do have the ReptiBreeze substrate tray along with some plastic tarp. It’s insurance against any excess water leaking. The only times I’ve had any leak issues is when my mister tubing had a hole and was totally drenching an enclosure or...

    Your Chameleon - Rambo is a yemen chameleon, i didnt get told how old he was but i think around 2 months? got told hes a male and ive had him for around 2 weeks now.

    First bioactive enclosure!

    Hey…whatever works! Bioactive is not always the same thing for everyone. I do have some gaps that poos fall into, but the isopods still find it and take care of it.
