Hello. I have my little Jackson's Cham here, and I was wondering if Shamwows are a suitable and safe replacement over paper towels. Thanks in advance!

Okay no problem : We replaced the Eco earth soil with paper towels changed daily due to him eating a little of the soil. Munch is a Jackson's chameleon ; male ; we've had him for 6 days now We do not handle him often. We've handled him about twice in the past days we've owned him We are...

Hello. I've had a few concerns with my new Cham, Munch lately. It began with sleeping during the day, but we resolved that by keeping his nightlight off. He's been losing his balance lately and has fallen just a few times. Also, when a cricket comes by he gaps his mouth open, then closes it...

He's acting perfectly normal now! Thanks for all the advice all of you! He's eaten all but one cricket in the terrarium. I'll set a potato in there as well. The two bulbs are about 8 inches from the screen, however the room is cooler than most of the house. It's about 75F in there right now.

Thanks so much. We're keeping the nightlight off now, and the misting system is being shipped to us. He's been acting perfectly normal, now. I think he just needs to catch up on his sleep. There are three crickets in his terrarium that haven't been eaten all day. Any red flags there? Should we...

Okay thanks for the advice! I'll be sure to check that out. I got photos of the bulbs we are using (Sorry it's a side image)

We changed out his cage and used paper towel instead. The only reason I was concerned about his eye closing, is because when I picked him up to mist the plant he was on, he froze up a little bit, shut his eyes, and until I put him back on the branch did he loosen up and open his eyes. Like I...

Okay let me see.. I am not using any supplements as we literally got him three days ago. He just started doing this about 5 hours ago. We will get rid of the soil. I've heard paper towels is a good substitute. Now that you mention it, I have seen him with a piece of dirt hanging out his mouth...

I have a 5 month old male Jackson's Chameleon I recently adopted from a local pet store. He's been eating, pooping, and drinking normally but I've noticed one red flag. He's sleeping in the day, and when I picked him up, he kept both of his eyes closed. (Just started today) I don't know if this...

Yes, I did. The soil it is in is the EcoEarth from a local pet store.

Yes, we have one of those. We just got a yellow tropical Hibiscus from our garden. No little pests as I can see, used a magnification glass just to be sure. I haven't checked on Much since I popped it in there, but I will ASAP. Thanks everyone for the quick reply! Are there any precautions about...

Oh that's cool. It's just we adopted our Munch from the Petco sale. It was me, my dad, and my sister. Good luck finding your Cham, though!

Just out of curiosity, was this the Petco in Odessa, Florida?

As you may not know me, I joined two days ago. I currently have one 5 month old male Jackson's Chameleon that I just got a few days ago. He's a wonderful companion to watch, and we bring him outside for a "sunshower" once on the weekend as we should. Munch is eating very well. We have all the...
