I have removed all of the soil and mulch from the cage completely. I am so distraught to find out the harm he could be in because of it.

Thank you for your response and plentiful information/knowledge! I will send photos and upload a review for chami as well. Answering questions: 1. Yes, I will upload tons of photos when I get my new phone. 2. They will be in a dark room around light cutoff time, not currently as we aren’t on...

Yeah, I haven’t seen him open his mouth at all after that first day… tommorrow I’ll try using the syringe again for him to maybe open his mouth ( maybe put water in there? ) and try to out the cricket or mealworm into his mouth. He’s been acting not normal and he has just been hiding in his...

My chameleons color has changed and he’s been trying to scratch or get out of his cage. I take him out and he won’t stop moving or relax really. I wish I could upload I video to show his behavior but I’m not too sure how to from my phone.

Got it! I’m so glad someone agrees with me, they freak me out way too much. That’s such a solid plan and I’ll for sure try that. Thanks so much. Is your chameleon comfortable with you after a couple times of doing that? I want to take him outside for some natural sunlight since I feel bad...

Hi. Niko is definitely a she and not looking good at all. First, make an appointment with a good vet who has experience with chameleons is preferred). Attaching the list of those who some of us have gone to. Next and asap, you need to make a lay bin and put it in her enclosure. A plastic bin of...

He is a male veiled chameleon approximately one year old. I’ve had him for 7ish months. I handle him usually once a week to check on his eyes and general health. He eats 10 medium Dubia roaches every other day that are gut loaded with potatoes or any other scrap fruit or vegetables we have...

You have an attention to detail that will serve your chameleon well! Though, there are two issues that will become serious things very soon. The Chameleon Kit is going to be a problem for your girl. 1) Size: Veiled Chameleons grow ridiculously fast and she will out grow the Chameleon Kit cage...

Some days my chameleon is super curious or something. The last few times of cleaning his enclosure and moving his plants around, he might not have been happy but crawled all over me while I was trying to do stuff lol. Other days when I try to feed him (usually dubia roaches) he will just ignore...

I would avoid using tape of any kind in a chameleon cage. Moisture from the cage will cause it to lift off the surface. This can become a particularly unsafe thing with chams. We have seen everything from chams trying to eat it to getting it stuck to their skin and it pulling their skin from...

First post here so please let me know if I leave anything out and I will comment! We have a baby ambilobe panther chameleon right at 2.5 months old. He is in a 24x24x48 bioactive enclosure. We have been feeding gutloaded crickets (repashys bug burger dusted with calcium plus) and giving right...

You need to drill holes in the bottom of the bin and arrange it in the spot that gets less spray from the sprinklers. You can then cover the bottom of the bin with land scraping fabric to stop soil from falling out. This was my first attempt at a lay bin...

Thanks for the advice. I am going to get her a new UVB light that was recommended and going to put her back into the house! She currently hasn’t been eating much since her eyes are closed. When she was eating I was supplementing her with vitamin D3 twice a month and without D3 every feeding.
