    Giving away free 16 x 30 in. cage (NE Ohio)

    Any folks around the Cleveland, OH area need a cage? It's free of charge. This thing has been in our garage for months now ever since we got a better cage for our veiled. It isn't broken in any way, shape or form. There is a permanent wooden bar attached to it that's perfect for perching, and...

    Dying Umbrella Plant

    Odd. Thank you all, took it out, removed all the completely dead leaves, watered it a tiny little bit, and put it back in her cage. Hopefully it'll do well once I cut back on the H2O. Normally I'd let it dry out for 2-4 days before watering again but it still began to wilt. I'll keep at it though.

    Dying Umbrella Plant

    Possibly. Living up in gloomy, cold Ohio may not be the best thing for it. My chameleon's cage itself sits between two windows which I always keep shut, but this time of year the cold does tend to seep through the windows a bit. (I usually put up plastic seals during this time, maybe I'll do it...

    Dying Umbrella Plant

    Hey there, Happy Sunday, hoping everyone has a nice day ahead of them. Just came to ask about my Umbrella plant. I bought it from Home Depot where it was beautiful, large and perfectly healthy, but about a month and a half later, the leaves and stalks are browning and falling off one by one. I...

    New Owner, Questions About Handling

    They didn't specify where they gave her the shot... What's strange is that she was moving perfectly fine even minutes before she was handed into the vet. She's sleeping in this pic so that's why she has her eyes shut. But she didn't have the strength to crawl up to her usual sleeping spot, which...

    New Owner, Questions About Handling

    Alright, she went to the vet. Poop is fine. But she's definitely full of eggs and they're saying she has a reproductive disorder, which they say is common. They x-rayed her and said some of the eggs are deformed and if she doesn't lay by herself in the next 10-14 days we have to get her operated...

    New Owner, Questions About Handling

    Her bin is 10.5 inches wide, 9 inches long and 10 inches tall. The sand in 9 inches deep. Since I set it up I've always made sure to make the sand wet enough so that it clumps together, adding more water if it dries out. I've seen her go into the laying bin several times but she only seems to...

    Alright, first 3 photos were taken this morning. The 4th photo was taken last night (she's sleeping, not closing her eyes from stress overload). The 5th pic was taken on May 29th.

    New Owner, Questions About Handling

    Thank you, all insanely helpful. Have already placed an order for the light and thinking about places where I can find these plants safe and the bugs tasty. She's been sleeping for a while now, when I neared her to take pictures, I woke her up and she got very spotty at me, so I decided I'd...

    Oh okay, I've got you. I just filled it out (out of town over the weekend, didn't get a chance to fill in the finer details until a couple hours ago). I'm already thinking of revamping her enclosure with more real foliage, lights etc. Thank you!

    New Owner, Questions About Handling

    First time pet owner, got my little chameleon as a surprise in Feb. of 2021, so naturally I'm not too educated on the subject. I have, however, watched plenty of videos, talked to chameleon caretakers and have searched online on how to take care of my little lady. Not sure how old she was when...
