Yeah..like how are you hiding when half your body and your tail are hanging out lol.

Just when I think I have seen it all.. My little Koanabe insists on sleeping in his beloved bug run (which means I have to clean it every day to try and keep it pristine). He starts heading that way around 4:30 pm. But last night was too much-he is yoga'd into it with his tail outside it still...

That is exactly what I would do. And since there is unlikely to be any real pain component, you might try tapering off the Meloxicam in a few weeks to see if it changes anything. It can help with inflammation, but if something is located inside the eye, I don't know how much good it would do and...

Late to the thread but I have had a similar issue. ALERT to readers!!! photo is graphic necropsy picture do not view if you are squeamish. My dear sweet Dude who I adopted from Multivitamins in '23 at the age of 5 had an eye issue from the beginning, and had been to a vet several times who...

That's the happiest story ever!

Exactly. I don't wear makeup much, but I had it on that day and I think the blinking "spider" was irresistible

Oh the horror if he hit your eyeball! That just won't wash off... Although I am sure it is also fun to get the patented cham goo off the glasses :)

Besides the sudden shock of it, it gives you a new appreciation for the power that their tongues have.

So yesterday before having company over I noticed that Dino (veiled) had knocked his hygrometer off so I went in to reattach it. Normally when I am incoming I have food so he was watching me very carefully as always. However, this time I was just trying to be in and out quick. BUT I guess...

So true! Dino will come towards me, and gape, hiss and rock and THEN climb up. He is eager to get to his outside sun cage but wants me to know he does not care for the mode of transportation.

We'll see how he looks when he grows! Still it is weird that he does not climb.

No it is me that is lucky. He is absolutely the sweetest thing in the world. He is that rare exception, a cham that loves to come out on my hand and hitch a ride to the sun cage. When he is eating, he obviously sometimes drops the bug or has to make a few tries and it is really a partnership. We...

Keeping for now. He is only about the length of a quarter (minus tail) and can't be more than a few days at most from hatching. I don't know how long he was without food/water and he is very vulnerable due to size so I hope I can get him to live and build him up. He is quite active today so I...

Well, appropriate name since he was IN my house lol.

I just found a neonate lizard in my indoor gym (no action to outside doors). I swear it must be a gecko; it is pink, with leopard spotting, and a striped tail. Eyes are large and black and must be nocturnal. I am in Socal, we only have western fence lizards around here and the tiny babies...
