Oh god, don't even get me started on PetCo :mad: Just ask @Andee Just assume everything they told you is 100% indisputably wrong. These forums are a treasure trove of information that should cover pretty much everything you will ever need to know.

That looks about right to me. I'm not sure where you were looking, but they should not be huge or have fully developed horns at 4 months. Jacksons are generally small Chameleons to begin with.

Well, I sent him another message in regards to the MBD. He pretty much called me an idiot and told me that he works at an exotic vet and that the animal is in perfect health. This is after earlier asking me what a casque was when I asked for pictures.

Yeah, honestly I think he stopped responding because he knows something is wrong. Unfortunately there's a lot people in my area that have Chameleons or other reptiles and know literally nothing about them. Craigslist is plagued with people either reselling animals, or trying to get rid of...

I noticed the face as well, but chalked it up to being stressed. Can't see much of the enclosure either, but from what I can see it looks pretty barren and small. I'm trying to get some more info, but the owner is just refusing to talk to me now. I was gonna look into rescuing him, but he's...

This is not my animal! Someone on Craigslist is trying to sell this dude, and I'm trying to figure out if he has MBD or not. The casque looks incredibly bent, and the way his elbows fold seems a bit off to me. Maybe I'm over thinking it, but I figured I'd post the pictures here to see what...

Plants raise the humidity, the cage is packed with faux foliage now. I set him up last Sunday with what I had on hand while waiting for the rest to arrive in the mail. That type of misting is correct when keeping the animal in a typical vivarium. In a glass enclosure, you can mist far less and...

Alright, quick update. Swapped to crickets and he's eating well. I started giving him small crickets with the legs crippled in a feeding bowl for a few days and he seemed to eat regularly. Today I tried feeding with tongs and he ate no problem! I feed him until he wouldn't take anymore, gonna...

The enclosure is rather large, so I worry that he won't be able to hunt efficiently right now. I figured it's just him settling in, it's just the fact that my other chameleon took to eating so quickly that had me a bit worried. I'll try some pinheads tomorrow and see what happens.

I do have crickets, I'm really trying to switch all my animals over to Dubias though. They're just so much easier to keep and breed. I'll at least try a few crickets to see if he goes for them.

Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Ambilobe, Male, Baby, 72 Hours Handling - I have not yet. Feeding - Small Dubia Roaches in a small feeding bowl. Supplements - I have not introduced supplements yet. Watering - The MistKing runs for one minute at 8am. Fecal Description - No fecal or urates yet...

Yes, I did. I got him from the guy whole only breeds Ambilobes. I can't recall the name off the top of my head, but I have his card somewhere. I'll get some more pictures in a couple days once he's had time to settle in. Really keeping any interaction to an absolute minimum right now.

Pretty much going off of what the breeder said. That said, there's definitely a slight bulge at the base of the tail, the picture doesn't really convey that.

I attended a reptile convention today to pick up some supplies for some dragons I have coming in this week, and to drop off another animal with a rescue. While I wasn't planning to pick up an animal today, I came across an Ambilobe breeder and I just couldn't resist. I have wanted an Ambilobe...

Alright, big update time. I attended a reptile convention today and turned Charlize over to a reptile rehab and rescue. I've been talking to them for the last week, and I honestly feel like this was the correct decision. Charlize has shown minimal improvement since posting this thread, and I...
