I have had my veiled cham for about 4 months now, and I never really handled him, in fear of hurting or stressing him to much. But now later today I have to get him into a wide air container and drive 2miles per hour to transport him to a friends for care over the weekend well I am on vacation...
Okay! I've been wanting to try mustard greens for him, but he doesn't like things that don't move. So unless I want to do 'here comes the airplane' with him, how should I get him to eat?
I've had my veiled cham for about 3 1/2 months now so he is about 4 months old, and have just been feeding him crickets that are being fed sweet potato and apple, with water gel that has calcium. Recently I have tried to get Picasso to eat some mealworm, but he eyes them with no interest. I...
My veild is 2 months old now, and is shedding for the first time in my care. I have left him alone so far, but now there is a small piece of the skin that has gotten stuck in his eye. It is affecting his hunting because he cannot see the cricket clearly. What is a safe way to get the piece of...
Okay, I set a lighting schedule: 6:40am-6:40pm. He woke up this morning with warm water misted into his cage. He crawled around then when offered small plastic tubware box with crickets he ate one. He wasn't intrested in a second but he kept his eyes open.
They are about the size of his head. I bought the smallest size there was. I am going to try fruit flies. He pooped once, and it looked healthy, did that mean he ate? Now he is moving throughout the day and slowing down in the later afternoon. When I misted him throughly he kept his eyes closed...
I put the crickets in a smaller cage with him in there. They crawled on his head and all around him. His eyes stayed open but he made no attempt to eat even a tiny tiny one.
I bought my crickets from Petco, when I googled pinheads, they looked generally the same. I will look more into that.
I certainly will do some more research on the fruit flies, so thank you for ideas. Your little cham is a beauty, fingers crossed my Picasso will become strong amd hamsome. I...
I have a compact bulb because it is a dual light thingy. I will try tomorrow morning to wake him and feed, without d3 then. I haven't got a set schedule yet, but I am open to options of what a good on would be.
Wouldn't fruit flies fly through the holes? The ones that get in my house during...

New question
Because we are on the subject of Repashy, I have a question of my own. The guy who I bought my chameleon. Told me to buy Repashy Superfood Calcium plus LoD, and Repashy Superfood supervite. He told me to powder crickets with one and one day and the other on the other day. Is this...
My new little male baby chameleon is acting odd. I got him yesterday from a breeders expo, and he seemed happy and energetic. But when I brought him home, and got him in his cage he became slow and drowsy looking. His eyes were closed, and if he was put on my hand would fall asleep almost...
