She doesn't need to eat crickets?!?!?! She eats worms like its the end of the world! She will be ok on a diet of just a variety of worms? That would be awesome.
So my cham is in her new big cage, and the crickets are in there running around, mostly on the bottom or in the plants and leaves. I feel like she can't readily find them if she's hungery, but she also hasent really tried so maybe she will hunt when she's ready.
Is it normal for the crickets...
2 Dome lights = 1 60 watt basking bulb just to raise the temp a few degrees to hit 80-81 during the day in the basking spot. The other is my 5.0 UVB coil buld which I am changing ASAP. I'm getting the tube bulb that is suggested in the blogs and what not.
As for Vines, Yes I will be getting a...
Finished building it today and so far is looks like lil Vlad loves it!!! At least I hope so.
Here are a few pics, let me know what you all think!!
You can see her crawling on the twine in that last pic :)
I am from Toms River. I used a Vet. in lakewood last time I had to go, I can't think of the name but they were good. They loved my lil beardie so much they named a collection called the "Frank Fund" after him to help sick animals :).
My baby started the same thing. Her eye was closed and I thought something was majorly wrong, but she opened it on occasion and sometimes kept it open for quite a while. I did some research and read about the same stuff here, something in her eye or a vet problem, also that it could be some...
Had her for about a week now, and being that i'm a new Cham owner, I just wanted to make sure all of her legs and eyes and everything were in the right place. Here are a couple of pics I just too of her while I cleaned her cage and she hung out on her Pothos plant in the shower...
Help with opinions on my baby please, Pics inside!
I've had a couple posts about basic care and everything, I just wanted ot throw up a couple pictures of my little baby who I've had a week now and make sure everyone says she looks healthy and everything. I'm paranoid being new to chameleons :/...
I use repcal with d3, so everyday use is no good :(. I went to one last pet store near me today ran by a younger dude and he said he would order it today because I told him how difficult it is to find. He also gave me a couple small sample packs of plain old calcium to hold me over a day or two...
So I have my calcium with D3, I have my multi vitamins, and no pet stores near me have just plain old calcium powder. Petsmart, petco and all the non chain stores don't have plain calcium.
They told me to go to the local vitamin store and get calcium tablets, and crush them up. Is this ok to...
Awesome, you guys rock and thanks for the blogs, they were very very informative. My Cham is going to be a baller once she gets in her new cage i'm building and gets all these lives plants and a few adjustments.
Thanks for the responses, just read the blogs and will get the proper powders and lighting etc.
I also see now that it's too hot from the blogs, she is only 3-4 months and I will get a lesser watt bulb.
I had one of those red night bulbs in there, but i guess thats no good either? It gets...
