What signs do you see of/ or look for/ for MBD?

I open it slowly every time. He would venture out around the room the first year, but now he seems to just stay in his corner about 99% of the time. I spend a lot of time with him. A LOT! He stays in that area. I have had him for almost 2 years now, my first reptile pet. The worst lesson I had...

Here are some pictures of him outside today. Not the best weather right now in Jacksonville, Florida - but he enjoys climbing on the trees and exploring the yard.

Humidity is high in Florida, he spends a lot of time outside in the backyard - and near the open window too. He gets a lot of sunshine, and has been doing good, besides that burn on his back, etc.

MBD he doesn't have that. Or if he does I don't know how to detect it, nor does my vet.

He had a burn about a year ago, and his back has healed up.

I use a fogger and mist him from time to time, usually give him a steam shower too

He stays in his corner of the room, and I shut the door when I am not in the room, so he is safe and doesn't get too lost in the house.

no cage He just stays in his corner, and does just fine. I take him outside once a day to chill with me by the pool, that's about it.

Hope my friend, Prince, the veiled chameleon wins.

Using bamboo and climbing rope with some zip ties... you can make a variety of chameleon climbing setups. Here is a version of a lean-to for my Veiled Chameleon.

He takes a while to find sometimes, but he is usually in his main spots. I used to have the whole corner of the room for him, but I grounded him to just 2 feet from the ground, he isn't climbing very well these days since a spinal injury - but he is getting better

I made a nice enclosure out of bamboo and zip ties and climbing 3/4" rope, he loves it, a male veiled Cham

I am curious if anyone has any information on the affects of using CBDs on chameleons? Any CBD with any Chameleon knowledge or thoughts???

My veiled chameleon rubbed raw his spines on his back by pushing through a narrow path near the ceiling, popcorn ceiling painted white. His spines turned black, and a narrow area of dead skin showed up, then the area began to heal, and now it looks like his injured spines are beginning to fall...
