lol i added it on but wanted to have one with this title about MBD and not being eggbound.

I have a year old female veiled chameleon and recently she started kind of hanging on her branches with her front leg or front two legs. i’ve noticed her grip isn’t very tight when she’s on them recently as well. a couple of days ago she went to the bottom of her cage and has stayed there since...

okay so now i’m thinking it could be the beginning stages of MBD. what changes should i make to help her and prevent it? i’m going to stop supplementing as often as i was, and i’m thinking of putting branches lower in the cage and maybe substrate at the bottom in case she falls or is still...

i feed her about 8-10 crickets (or less if she decides to eat less than that) everyday or every other day. she had 63 eggs last time and yes it was her first and only clutch

i don’t think misting regularly or keeping humidity at a higher level is excessive. i might have been generous saying 75 all day long. i’ll look more into that tho. i don’t keep her outside mostly because i have dogs and it’s been getting colder out recently. i do take her outside often though...

d3 comment is noted! i don’t feed super worms or meal worms often at all!! thank you!!

Female Veiled Chameleon, just over a year old. I’ve had her since she was very young maybe a few weeks so she’s been in my care about a year. I don’t handle her unless i’m taking her outside, she doesn’t enjoy being handled at all even though i tried to work with her on that since i started...

yes it is

i have a year old female veiled chameleon. she laid her first batch of eggs May 20th of this year. about a week ago she started laying on her branches and not gripping them unless she was moving. she was still eating and drinking well. and then about four or five days ago she started staying at...

okay great i’m glad it’s nothing bad. thank you!!!

yeah that’s what i’m thinking, i just thought it was odd because it’s been there for maybe a few days to a week already?

I wanna update you guys in cosmo first!! i took him to the vet for the bump on his eye, they removed it and told me it didn’t look like anything to worry about unless it comes back, in which case we kept the bump for testing. Anyways! I’ve noticed he hasn’t been shedding much, which I know is...

poor thing!! no he doesn’t have anything else, other than that i think he’s a super healthy lil guy

Yes that was my plan! I’ve been doing some research about exotic vets around me but I want to pick the right one before scheduling an appointment. definitely worth the peace of mind
