i think you are right, africanus seems to be it.

Looks like a Veiled to me, but I may be wrong. Anyone else ever seen a veiled with these colors? More pics at http://www.indianaturewatch.net/

I stand correct exo-terra does list the plant as Abuliton, which I guess makes it a member of the Mallow family.

He gets his grub around 10-11am

Thanks guys. I went out tonight and got him Mustard and Collard greens and hung them all over the cage. I also added some of those greens to the cricket tank so they take in some of the vitamins. I dust with Fluker's Repta-Calcium from insectivores. It says it has a minimum of 36% calcium and D3...

He gets crickets, wax worms, and meal worms. I gut load and dust the crickets. I have offered veggies in the past, but he never seems to eat them.

Big Leaf = Canibus = I think the latter is closer than the former

Any one else ever seen this happen? Merlin has stopped using his left eye completely and has had it shut for almost 3 weeks now. His right eye is fine, he is active all day, he is drinking and seems to be eating. In fact, everything looks 100% except for the fact they he has his left eye...

I don't. I originally insulated the bucket and put heat tape in between the insulation and the bucket sides to keep the whole thing warm but I found it made the water in the reservoir go bad unless I chemically treated the heck out of it. Maybe someone else has had better luck. I just fill the...

Not to much info about the Chamaeleo verrucosus out there. Anyone here keep them? I've found a basic care sheet but I am looking for some first hand experience so I can gauge if they are right for my next addition. I'm deciding between these guys and Flap necks.

Sodium by itself is not salt so you will not be dehydrating your chameleon. The water should be safe for you and all your pets. If you are really worried ask your vet.

So at the behest of others I increased the humidity levels in my veiled's cage this week by adding a 1 gallon dripper and installing a fine misting nozzle, connected to a 1/16th hp pump with a 3 gallon reservoir. I am proud to say it now "rains" in Merlins cage 2-4 times a day depending on the...

I just culled all the males tonight, I was getting to the end of this batch anyway. I was going to put them up on toothpicks in the cricket tank as a reminder to the others, but then I remembered they are bugs so I went downstairs and fed my snakes instead

Anyone? I am just worried about his eye.

So After this week's vet visit with Merlin (was in for a potential eye infection) I noticed his poop had return to normal but he had begun to rub his left eye on branches in his enclosure. I called my vet immediately and she prescribed Gentamicin Sulfate eye drops. I've been giving him 2 drops a...
