Okay so I put a cricket in her cage just 5 minutes ago, she ate it then started choking, she got it to hang out of her moth and I pulled it out but she didn’t get any better and stopped breathing, I’ve been trying to do cpr on her, but I think she’s gone... there’s no heart beat anymore...
Yes, the crickets are small. I’ve seen her eat bigger ones than the ones I just bought, and yes I only put it in the tip of her mouth so when she bites down she only crunches the head, then she starts eating it and it goes down fine.
I bought a temperature gun, I just haven’t removed the other gages. I want to get a pothos, but I don’t known how I’m going to put it in my cage because the cage isn’t not tall, I would rather have real plants, I’m just not sure how I’d set it up. And that is what her fecal looks like, I meant...

She’s a veiled chameleon. I bought a temperature gun and measured her body temp and it was 93.2 degrees Fahrenheit, but she was in her basking spot. She hasn’t been eating really anything so I was wondering if maybe the temperature in the cage isn’t right for digestion.
If my cage is too small to put a lay bin in it, could I add more eco earth dirt? And make sure it’s deep enough? Would she still lay her eggs? I’ve seen her go to the bottom and walk around before

I just signed up for chameleon forums yesterday, so I’m kinda confused. Where is the how to ask for help forum? And I’ve been looking at the back of her feet for spurs but don’t see any, also I’ve been looking for the lump on the tail and there is none, so I’m almost positive she’s a girl, but...
