I bought the setup with a chameleon last year and ended up having to sell the chameleon for the future of the rare species. The man (chameleopatrick) who set it up was a professional chameleon breeder and hobbyist for over 20 years, and this tank was his masterpiece. The entire setup cost over...
Hello! I have a beautiful, healthy Peretti female named Aura (I bought her from Chuck at Heroic chameleons in November). I have been keeping her with a male, and they bred on March 5 (I saw them :rolleyes:). She is definitely gravid with fertile eggs. She is about 1.5-2 years old. This species...
Thank for the response. We've been supplementing with calcium almost every day for 2 months and she doesn't appear to have that bending of the arms in the pictures. We have a really great vet we can take her to tomorrow...
Hello! My peretti female is definitely gravid and has been so for over a month. I have the pot with the soil in it as directed, but she keeps falling off of branches in the tank. She has been falling up to 15 times a day!!! Sometimes she will climb back up via the foam back of the tank but...
Okay, so it was a prolapse. He was tested via fecal matter for parasites and it came back negative. So, most likely there was a mating attempt yesterday and since it had been so long for him, his hemipenes got stuck outside. So, they put him in a luke warm soak and were able to get it back...
Thanks for the helpful advice! It looked about the same this morning (a tiny bit better) and I put Vaseline on it. He has an appointment with the vet this afternoon. I will keep you guys posted!
What would a shower entail? Taking him out or spraying him inside the tank?
Yes, they're together 24/7. Patrick said to do this since they've a very docile species and the tank is so large for them- it's a large tank (36" tall x 18" deep x 36" wide) and this is a small species (~4"). I only...
Hello! I have had my peacock (Peretti- that I got from ChameleoPatrick) for a few weeks now and everything has been going well. He eats a lot of variety, and is well hydrated (though tonight he just drank A LOT). On Wednesday we brought home a female and put her in the tank with him. There were...
Lol- I just got my boy on Wednesday and it looks like his mate is coming this Wednesday (weather permitting). I got his whole setup along with him so I figured why not? Just one extra mouth to feed and she should make him really really happy!
Have you guys checked craigslist? There's often...
