    CHAMELEON KEEPS HIDING IN BRANCHES — NOT BASKING

    Hi, a couple questions: When you say he goes to his sleeping spot, does he actually go sleep there or just hang out, awake? What are the cage temps (both overall and basking)?

    It's been a little while, hasn't it

    It's taken some time to getting used to having all the cage lights off and being able to have my room lights on past his old bedtime, but I'm slowly healing. I'm glad he had a long life, especially because he's my first and only reptile. I feel like there are a lot of things that could have gone...

    Not eating, no poop

    So I lost my chameleon named chamo this is my first time loosing a reptile pal

    I'm so very sorry for your loss. I understand what you're going through right now, my first reptile also recently passed away. Losing a pet is never easy because they quickly become like family to us. Even though Chamo is no longer with you, I'm sure he'll live on in the happy memories you've...

    Thank you! I look forward to seeing you around the forums :) It makes me happy to hear you say he had a long life. Even though I know that's in the normal lifespan range I can't help but feel it's too short

    Then again, that doesn't look like what I'm used to seeing. I'd recommend adding food

    Medium just means "substance" in this case pretty much. Just like Kaizen said, they should be burrowing in their own food when the arrive

    Kudos to you for taking your time and examining your options :) I'm pretty sure it was mentioned in the video Gingero posted, but when you're buying a panther chameleon you're also paying for a relationship with the breeder at the same time. Experienced breeders are a great resource when you...

    Super pumped for this! I love seeing photos of the lesser kept chameleons 😁

    How smooth is too smooth? and how much is too much?

    Same here, I just gave the bark on a good scrub. All of my branches were on the smooth side to begin with (nothing like birch or anything)

    It seems like they're selling their panther babies at under 2 months old. Panther babies aren't well established that soon. Also, as @MissSkittles mentioned above, a place doesn't specialize in chameleons might not be the wisest choice. I would still stick with a place that is known for their...

    How smooth is too smooth? and how much is too much?

    There is such a thing as too many branches, but I think a more common critique when building chameleon cages is a lack of branches. As long as you have adequate room for plants and there is a sufficient gap between the lights and your future chameleon's designated basking spot I think you'll be...

    Thank you for the warm welcome and the words of sympathy <3 I'm not sure about his exact age because I got him as a sub-adult from a chain pet store. I had him for a little over 5 years, so I'd imagine he made it to about 5 1/2.

    Help identify sex of panther chameleon, please :)

    I'm far from qualified to make a guess but I'd place my bets on a male too. I think I see a bulge on the second and third photos. I'm curious what the experts think 😅

    Hi chameleon moms and dads, I hope you've all been well! I'm glad to see so many familiar "faces" on the forums still ☺️ It's been a few years but I thought now seemed like a good time to get active in the chameleon community again. My baby, Mondo, passed away this past Christmas eve and my...
