Hey all. I just ordered a male Nosy Be from the Chameleon Company. His cage is set up right next to my veiled with a divider in between so that they can't see one another. I was wondering if this is necessary due to them being different species of chameleon. I couldn't find anything on this...
Yeah I feed mine before I leave as well. When I come home and check on him though, he will run down to the cup and stare at me if he feels he needs more food! Demanding little thing lol.
I have read a few other threads on this topic and noticed my cham do this once or twice. Covering with rocks can inhibit the chams natural behavior. If he's eating a bit of soil, then there is a reason. We obviously don't know the reason for sure. We can speculate all we want, but the best thing...
What do the temps in your house get down to at night? Chams usually don't need a heat source at night. A drop into the 60's is fine because it helps them achieve deep sleep. If you do need to provide night heat, it is best to use a ceramic heat emitter. Light can disrupt their sleep patterns. As...
Nosy Be is a locale of panther chameleon that are generally blue in color. I assume when you say blue bar, you are talking about the Ambilobe locale. Ambilobe panther chameleons show a rainbow of colors that vary greatly. The blue bar refers to a blue bar that generally runs horizontally down...
Ditch the waterfall. Your Cham will probably poop in it at some point. The waterfall then becomes a breeding ground for harmful bacteria. Your much better off misting one to two times a day and providing a dripper. Also, be sure to let the cage dry out between mistings.
What are you trying to feed him? That played a big role in getting my veiled to start eating from my hand. Offer him his favorite treat and only offer that treat by hand. In my case, wax worms worked best. I got lucky and it only took mine 1 day before he ate out of my hand. Now he will come out...
I only have a Veiled but plan on getting a Panther in the near future. From what I understand they are pretty similar in care. The only difference that has stood out to me is the humidity. Panthers typically require a bit more humidity, around 60%-70%. Whereas Veileds fall in the 50%-70% range...
Any way I could talk you into sending me a PM with your recipe? The chow that I bought came from a breeder. He does't use animal based protein but other than that, wouldn't tell me what's in it, seeing as he sells it lol.
Right. Some brands of dog and cat foods aren't even that healthy for dogs and cats lol. Gut loading insects with animal based protein is just lazy. I hear that fish food is ok but I still wouldn't use it. I have read that algae strips (nori) are good to use.
From what I have read, they are more nutritious. The intestinal tract of a dubia is longer than that of a cricket. So gut loading is more effective with them as they hold the nutrients longer than a cricket. You obviously don't want to gut load them with high protein items such as dog or cat...
So I'm pretty excited with Ollie tonight. I got home from work and was giving him a treat (wax worms). He saw the tub of worms and crawled right out onto my arm and then up to my shoulder. From there I hand fed him a few worms and he just sat on me for a while. I put him back after a few minutes...
Wow just wow. Such a lack of respect. Kids today lol. Now you'll need a new apology thread to apologize for this poor excuse of an apology (sarcasm). Seriously though, just stop now kid. Use the search tool and the advice that has been given to you already. Please only post here when you can be...
You again asked the same question on a new thread! Plus this "apology" is less convincing than the first.
"Glass works too (see previous thread) and many use it for Rudis. Search Rudis chameleon on YouTube and most of them are in glass cages"
Posts like the one above make us not want to...
FOR THE LAST TIME, YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE HELP WITH THIS KIND OF ATTITUDE SO PLEASE STOP ASKING AS WE ARE OBVIOUSLY NOT GOING TO DO SO. All you have to do is sincerely apologize to this community. Easy peasy! Not like the last "apology" that you typed up, which was garbage. This has nothing to do...
