I was wandering what substrate people use for panther eggs in their egg box. I'm guessing vermiculite is the norm but I do have a lot of pangea hatch em for my crested gecko eggs and was wandering if that would work.

Hello, I am a student at a community college in Southern California. We have an amazing program for Bio majors that offers students a paid job to take care of several aquariums and a run a herpetarium. I recently found out there are about 4 separate established populations of jackson chameleons...

It would greatly be appreciated

HEllo, I know this is an old post but could you maybe explain how you got rid of the edema

I would like to add that when I touched it, it was not hard... it left like extra skin and was quite soft. Also she has been quite active today

Today I noticed an almost wart like area in my Female panther chameleons armpit area. It was 100% not there yesterday. It is larger on the right side then on the left. Ive done some searching and think this might be an edema... Can anyone confirm. I am planning on increasing the frequencies of...

I am 95% sure my female is gravid. I just put her laying bin in the cage and am moving her cage into a quite room where she will not be disturbed. This is my first time dealing with this and one thing everyone seems to mention is that they need absolute privacy... My question is should I...

I have a 6 month old nosy be... Lately I have notice she is hanging out more frequently in the lower parts of her cage... not getting on the ground but close to it on the lowest branches available, which is a few inches off the ground. However from my understanding if she is gravid shed be...
