I believe the pupil in the funky eye is always the same size, doesn't seem to react to light changes. I will check tomorrow for more certainty though

Thank you, I'll see if there's anything the vet can do or find out. I was told she was too small before and there wasn't anything a vet could do at her size, maybe since she's a little bit bigger and also more established a vet could give me more insight now!

Oh and here's another link to a video I took of her eye and how it bulges when she, I think, cleans it? Thread 'Hatchling with one bulging eye' https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/hatchling-with-one-bulging-eye.193663/ Aside from the funky eye, does her body appear healthy? I feel like her...

Back in September I hatched my two baby panther chameleons, M&M and Boo. Boo has had a funky/enlarged(?) eye ever since I first saw the baby post-hatch, and I've kept an eye on it, but recently I noticed a concern... In the last 2-3 weeks I noticed her funky eye seemed to be looking odd, and...

Regarding the halogen bulbs producing artificial UVC, I'm having trouble find the link I specifically read about it in the past, but wanted to clarify that I'm not implying all Halogen bulbs are bad, only the ones that are cheaply made without the correct materials. Halogen bulbs do produce...

So halogen bulbs are generally considered safe, however there have been some concerns raised in the past regarding materials used to make the bulbs & UV-C emissions from cheap/off-brand halogen bulbs marketed for reptiles. I'll see if I can find the links to these claims that I've read and if...

Does DIY interest you at all? I was looking into the following ideas/threads recently. I don't have power tools (aside from a drill) and was a bit intimidated at the prospect of a DIY wood frame enclosure...

What time of day does Charms normally go down to dig/sit near the bottom? Does he seem to spend more time down there later in the evening, maybe an hour or so before lights turn off? Maybe it's irrelevant, but I've seen that some chams have their own "night time rituals" so to speak.. I don't...

Sorry to randomly jump in, but I was curious about this. Aside from ensuring to feed a variety of course, is there a reason for feeding less of the BSFL?

Thank you for your reply!! I just wanted to respond to some of your remarks to clarify and/or answer your questions :) I just wanted to clarify this, I use NoD every feeding except for the 2x a month feedings that I use LoD :) I didn't explain that very well haha, sorry. Yes I have a dropper...

I've started second guessing lately if Pepper might be unhappy in her cage for some reason, rather than just being a bottomless stomache that knows I'm the food-bringer and demands my attention whenever she sees me 😂 so I just want to make sure everything still looks good and maybe get some...

I walked in on Pepper looking a bit extra monkey-like today 😂 I doubt she was actually stuck, but I helped her out anyways. She's such a sweetie. Also noticed the tradescantia started flowering 😍 tiny and beautiful!

Would you be interested in DIY? I haven't tried it, but many on this forum like this DIY fogger shown here: Post in thread 'DIY Chameleon guys YouTube' https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/diy-chameleon-guys-youtube.192482/post-1799031 I believe it works as powered on/powered off IIRC, so...

Rather than keep making new threads I figured I will just start compiling all my cham pics here 😅 I noticed this chunk sleeping (directly above the 'feeding station' I might add) and had to take a picture! This is Boo, being a cutie. Already a little bit bigger than M&M too as far as growth...

This is all super helpful!! The little baby is also a bit of a poor hunter, I can tell that s/he tries but unless it's right in front of the face, it's either not seen or ignored (leaning towards not being seen/unaware there's food). Will hunt crickets to an extent since they're more active and...
