Thanks for the encouragement, ive really been struggling with him lately. I had to move him a few weeks ago and force him onto my hand and hes been super aggressive lately. I lost all the trust i built. 😭 i feel so guilty
I dont feel like its the temperatures i feel like theyre just jacking around honestly. I received a shipment today with moldy potatoes inside, ive never had that happen before.
Ill definitely look into them if i decide upon roaches. Ive mainly only had crickets so far as he seems to be a bit picky. I got horn worms once and while he did eat a couple, he was not amused.
Hello!
I am currently a customer of Joshs frogs for feeders and i am not happy. We do not have any local shops you can get feeders from so i rely on mail in services. However joshes frogs keeps sending my packages late and leaving the bugs in the mail for a week or more. Leaving me with no food...
Thank you all so much 😭 i do actually think milford is the closest. You all have calmed my fears about shoving him in a box a little better lol i was really worried about the stress that would put on him. Swelling has gone down a bit today and looks like he is in the same condition he was prior...
Okay it got worse, up until yesterday it was staying about the same maybe a bit better. But he has been going to sleep as early as 5-7 pm on some days which he has always done if its dark and cloudy out; so i hoped for the best. Yesterday he was asleep when i got home at 6, today he is awake and...
I struggled w crickets too. Idk if this will help but I learned that theyre much more dependent on water than food so i keep a dish with a saturated paper towel in there and just feed this different food scraps maybe once a week or flukers cricket cube food (just to keep them alive). Also i keep...
I gave him a 3 minute misting yesterday and today i admittedly forgot. (Lights out now) Will try a five minute misting tmmrw and probably everyday until resolved. When i fed him today he was still winking. But he was back in the foliage so i didnt want to stress him.
I will order a new uvb bulb...
Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - male, panther, approx. 1 yr, he came into my possession last spring from framchams
Handling - i do not handle him, i sit/stand next to the cage during feeding. Attempts to put my hands near him seem to deeply stress him and i am trying to build trust, however in...
A little while ago i posted that i was concerned about my dudes eyes looking puffy around the bottom. Evefyone said he looked normal so i just let it go and kept watching him.
Now ive been noticing he may have his eye/s closed during the day but opens them if he notices me nearby. Today i came...
We also have had a raging cage of fungus gnats for many months now, ive been trying to get rid of them via sticky traps and mosquito bits. Ut i scared i might accidentally poison Mr Melon if i leave them in there or too much juice.
Now that im looking at old photos maybe it isnt that bad maybe...
My cham has had swollen eyes for nearly a week now, theyre not getting any better or worse, im not sure what to do about it or whats caused it?
Ive been ill lately so i admit he has not recieved the best care. But i recently replaced his uvb bulb for a new one, and added a sansii grow bulb...
I have a pretty heavily planted enclosure and it is mainly pothos, but even after cleaning my cage has a bit of a smell, does anyone have any tips for keeping things squeaky clean in a heavily planted environment?
I really couldnt fit many more plants in if i tried. All my plants are potted...
So melon (7mo old panther male) has been in his new large cage for a couple months now, I collected all the sticks locally from my yard and my parents yard, these sticks were too big to fit in my oven, so i just closely inspected them and sanded and cut them. But now alot of dust coming from my...
So i just moved my guy into his new xl 24 in wide zoomed cage from the L 18 in cage the night before last so were on day 2.
My basking spot is farther away from him now because I wanted it to be big enough for him as an adult. Plus i have a double deep dome lamp so the bulb is pretty far away...
