You said he's in the computer room next to a window...AND it's cold outside. That's a no no. Chameleons can get sick from cold drafts from windows and AC vents and busy doors. It's normal to fall a couple times and jump when they are scared, but if this is a routine I'd be worried.

Is that a DYE mask in your closet? I hope you find him..Look inside that guitar, and remove all that clutter.

I'd watch every step you take, and treat every heavy object like hes underneath it, because I had a frog once...and. Yeah.

At 7 months I think he's a late bloomer, but I've seen signs of red, blue, yellow, and green.

Habba Mister is more a weak sprayer. Mist King and Aqua Zamp are quality.

My panther doesn't mind me too much as long as I am either feeding or spraying. If I just sit there and look at him he will get pissy, but doesn't like handling at all. So, I only handle him when I need to clean the cage or if I REALLY want to.

Try Umbrella plant and pothos combo with dowel rods. Umbrella is easy to care for and it likes humidity, pothos is...well pothos...it just grows a lot! And dowel rods are strong, sturdy, and cheaper than those fake vines. You can pick all this up at Walmart for under $30.

Welcome. Check back because more people will chime in.

Depends. You could be gutloading with too much vitamin A. You can try to stop dusting and keep them both really hydrated to flush out excess vitamins if it is gular edema.

No, no. This neck swelling is VET worthy. Dusting with D3 twice a week isn't going to swell the neck. Something is wrong with him and dusting less isn't going to make the swelling go down.

Thank you! Everything is in order, but I get cautious when I hear the word tank. I've seen chameleons in fish tanks and it makes me shiver. Anyways, they are solitary creatures and don't like to be bothered. It's hard to not handle and watch them so close because they are so la flare! He needs...

Two months?! Mine is six months and is the same size. I've give up. I have a midget, lol. I like the blue and green i see on John.

I wouldn't raise the UVB above the cage unless you have a really small one. The uvb is effective at 12 inches max. I have my basking lamp pointed underneath my uvb, because they need heat to make use of it.

Use a small amount of vinegar because it's a natural fungicide. Mix with hot water and let it sit for 30 minutes. Then, rinse it a couple times. I don't have a fogger, but it's the same as my humidifier. Do this once a week and you'll be set.
