The Vet Tech weighed him. I saw her zero out the scale but I'll weigh him at home. I bring my scale to 0 after I put the bowl in place so that it does not include bowl weight. I was in shock. I didn't ask him to be re-weighed. I've been totally committed to his food plan. 2 feeders and 1...

Hello and welcome. She is so tiny! How old is she? Three months? I have raised two from babies so I will make a few suggestions that may seem controversial. First, the size of feeders should be no longer then the space between her eyes, not casque. She should be on small crickets right now and...

Hi All, It has been about 5 years since I last posted here but everyone was so helpful with educating me on the proper care for our brand new (at the time) veiled chameleon, Gussie. Unfortunately, Gussie just passed away at the age of five. Over a 1-week period of time, she had stopped eating...

oooo this is perfect for me because I literally feed hummingbirds lol so it's the same drill as hummingbirds ..... interesting. I may have to try this.

This Hawk Moth is a Messy Bessie! I just made simple syrup for its nutritional needs. My whole identity has changed!

Only the front is glass. The top is mesh, the sides are dark colored PVC. Soil - I'm planning to cover all the soil with weed cloth, then large river rocks. So that the bioactive portion keeps doing it's job, so that all the moisture produced from her misting system and dripper are being...

There are never too many questions, we want to help you with anything/everything you need! With baby chameleons, you’ll order either hornworm eggs or freshly hatched hornworms online to get ones that are small enough to safely feed. They also have a strong grip, so only feed them in a smooth...

The hawkmoths need to be able to climb and hang from something in order to fully unfurl their new wings and let them form and dry properly. This is my current set up. I use pool noodles and landscape fabric because the eggs come off of those easily. I’ve tried branches and plain screen and the...

When your introducing a new feeder especially roaches you want to have the feeders they are used to mixed in. I always do my roaches smaller so that when they target a known feeder they may hit the new ones as well. They then grow accustom to seeing the new feeders and will accept them.

Yay! I had mine emerge, they made some eggs and now are all dead. You’ll need to make it a nectar if you want it to live. It’s just 1 part sugar and 4 parts water, heat until it boils in the microwave and that’s it. Super easy. In the past I used a hummingbird feeder, but this last group didn’t...

Thank you so much

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...

Thank you! I’ll definitely give that a shot.

I do not take mine to every other day until roughly 9-10 months old. And that is only if the cham is showing signs of fat storage or has started its own curb down with appetite. I keep them on every day and just start reducing the feeder amounts if I see fat storage or if they slow down and...

...think chameleons all eat all their bugs in one go too so keep that in mind. My Jackson's will eat a span of 10 crickets throughout the day. My veiled with eat everything in her feeder bowl as soon as its offered, no questions asked. You may have a cham that picks at food throughout the day.

Glad to hear she's been happier! Waxworms are really more of a treat - so I'd stick to crickets, hornworms, black soldier fly larvae, dubia roaches, and silkworms for main feeders. A lot of chams get addicted to waxworms and they're way way too fatty for them to eat every day. Also if the...

Weigh him again when you get home to be sure and then we can discuss further. I just want to confirm that it is a real gain. And the prior weight you had on him was that at the vet or at home with you?

Not uncommon... This is why I always have a feeder run for my cage. That way it is more like free range feeding but the bugs are contained.

...loose on the plants and screen so she could hunt but a feeder run would definitely be a more organized way. i’ve tried putting them in a feeder bowl and leaving it but she would just watch them but not get close. i think she’s gotten accustom to hunting them down so i’ll definitely try making...

I feed my adult panther chameleons and my adult veiled chameleon every other day. That’s 15 feedings per month. 13 of those feedings are with Arcadia Earth Pro. 2 of those feedings are with Repashy Calcium Plus LoD So instead of remembering to dust biweekly I just went ahead and made a...
