Whats wrong with my husbandry?? He looks pretty healthy to me. Im not asking for help just responding to someone saying he is overweight.

Thanks everyone! He has been having some cream put on by the vet and it seems to have improved, the vet is happy with it anyway. He's been off the cream for a few weeks now as it just has to take time to heal :) Im not sure what the cream was called but it was bloomin' expensive for the...

If thats his horn, it got burnt :(

I took some pics of my Yemen tonight, he's got some nice colours now. A bit grumpy these days since he had to go to the vet for his burned horn, but he's ok once he's had a huff and puff :rolleyes:

Is it normal for a cham to show aggression in its cage, but be fine outside? He has never shown any aggression before but since his recent vets visit he has been difficult to get out of the cage, puffing up, hissing and striking out, although he hasnt come near biting. Once out of the cage...

Really? I always think he seems really boring and dull compared to the others posted on here :o

thank you :) he is 10 months.

Some pics taken earlier on my phone, sorry for the rubbish quality, my camera has finally died on me! Also, no comments on how skinny he is please :( He had to have a couple of vet visits recently and that and the cream stuff he was having every day have not agreed with him unfortunately so...

On the advice of a couple of the members of this wonderful website i took Dennis along to the vets for a burnt horn thingy. Have never had to take him to the vet before, but I have a wonderful one who treats my parrots who specialises in exotics and he was really good with him. It seems that...

Summoner12 - Thank you for that info! That is very helpful. I think my set up is pretty similar to the diagram, just with an extra basking light in the viv (that is now gone!).

Ummm.... I will try my best. The strip light is an arcadia?? And the bulb is too, its 24" if that helps at all!lol The heat bulb is an infra-red one (i THINK it was exo terra) and that is in an Exo Terra porcelain clamp lamp/reflector. The basking light is an exo terra sunglow basking light.

Yeah, I wasnt sure about having a light IN the viv, but I was told he wouldnt get the benefit of the UV if it was ontop of it instead??? And i did actually ask on another forum about the discolouration on his head and was told it was due to him shedding...!!! Have taken the light out now and...

I thought i'd share some pics of Dennis, he's got very big now!! Hese were taken yesterday Close up of dinner! They are beautiful things really..

Lol no, thats a cable from a heater that runs through his viv that for some reason he thinks is the best possible "perch". He has lots of branches and vines in his viv of different sizes to make sure his little hands get appropriate exercise whilst he is exploring, but he just seems to like...
