    Puffy eyes

    Caring for animals can be challenging and chameleons are said to be one of the more challenging. What I do when I notice something not quite right with any of my critters - I give it a short amount of time (usually a few days) to see where it goes. Some things go away quickly and are never seen...

    Dying plants, any suggestions?

    Hi and welcome. :) Hibiscus need extra heavy duty plant lighting. While you have a plant light, I have no idea what it is or how strong it is compared to something like Arcadia Jungle Dawn, which is enough for hibiscus. My second thought is that hibiscus have need for a lot of water and it may...

    How to best clean up?

    Coaxing onto a stick is usually the easiest. I use both hands to distract and confuse as I gently put one hand beneath until I can get a couple of feet holding onto me and then I approach from behind with the other hand to further coax onto the other hand. Hard to explain. Yes, no matter how you...

    Veiled breeding

    Unfortunately, there are no dedicated breeders of veileds because it just isn’t profitable. I would venture a guess that breeding them might even result in a financial loss. As has already been mentioned, you may end up with being unable to find decent homes for far too many of them. It’s a huge...

    Strange face issue, vet confused!

    I just saw this NERD video this morning and it shows the consistency of reptile pus perfectly. Advance to 8:58 if you aren’t too squeamish. While the snake in the video actually somehow expelled that from its respiratory tract, it shows how thick and solid it is and Kevin explains it a little bit.

    Strange face issue, vet confused!

    ^^^^ 100%! First, I would definitely try to find a vet with more experience with reptiles, specifically chameleons. A needle aspirate or tissue biopsy needs to be done before you accept euthanasia as a solution. Reptile pus is a thick cheesy material that does not go away unless it is...

    Puffy eyes

    Do you have an appointment with a vet yet? I strongly advise taking in a fresh poo for her to be checked for parasites while there. That can often be the cause of a picky appetite.

    Update: Eye Issue

    The person who created the list hasn’t been around in a long time and I am clueless how to edit it. I do appreciate that you let us know though.

    Puffy eyes

    Ok, good. In some veileds it has caused puffy eyes and gular edema.

    Veiled breeding

    Hi and welcome. :) I’ve never bred any of my animals, so am of limited knowledge. However, unless your male is exceedingly large, or your female extra tiny, size shouldn’t be an issue. The males are by nature larger. Before breeding them though, I do advise getting as much information about...

    7 years of Stella 🩷

    What? You want more? Okay. 😁 She was really mad at the phone! 😡 While I do handle her for less than a minute at least once a week, I don’t often take her fully out like this. She’s very calm once on my hand. Have I mentioned how I love her face? 😛 Still absolutely breathtaking after all...

    7 years of Stella 🩷

    Because I can never get enough of her. 🥰 Stupid papilloma appeared. Later had it successfully removed (it never returned) but it’s why her ‘affair’ with Hammlet was forbidden. (Plus I feared getting ‘stuck’ with dozens of babies) Not sure why she changed into her colors, but she’s stunning in...

    7 years of Stella 🩷

    This is a bit late, but I got the date completely wrong. So August 22nd was the 7th gotcha day for my beautiful Stella. Hard to believe it’s been so long! While she’s getting old and slowing down here and there, for the most part, she’s doing great. It’s been maybe a couple of years that she...

    Is it time to start cutting back how much I feed my 8-month-old panther?

    Hi. I think he looks perfect and healthy. His casque is still a bit concave from what I’m seeing. Do continue to keep a close eye though, as you’re already doing. Usually around 10-12 months is when they have done pretty much all of their growing and we want to cut their feeding back.
