I usually get vermiculite online via Amazon but there was a big shortage a while back that cause the price to triple. I get the fine rather than the course. I was getting it at Lowe’s until they ran out.

Garlic cloves in the soil work for pests too. My sister has a shoe hanger and has accumulated a nice variety of succulents.

Gout is usually detected in the blood or in the symbiotic fluid in the joints. In humans it can be detected in X-rays too. It means the kidneys are not filtering the uric acid properly. There is no cure but there is meds for flare up’s. It’s very painful and can affect the temperament of the...

An infection usually takes longer to heal than the dosing. Even if all the visible signs of infection are gone, the fight in the body continues. It’s the same with humans. I have noticed that chameleons heal slowly which is why follow-up with the vets are so important.

Hello. This is perfectly natural. Until they are full grown, they will change with each molt. Colors will be added as well as lines and shapes. Do you see the their skin is made up of little dots. I call that pixilated. It’s actually chemicals that cause the color changes. Now it’s your job to...

I have found that getting a uvb that is longer then the top is good as the weight of it rests on the frame and not the screen. The plants are great but I would add more bend-a-branches so he can climb with more confidence as live plants tend to bend or sway or break under his weight. As u can...

Do the best you can to fill out the form. And take pics of the top of the cage so we can see the position of the lights, the entire cage and many pics of your Cham. You might want to start a new thread with husbandry review in the subject line to get more people to review it. Beman and...

Oh here’s the husbandry form. Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - The species, sex, and age of your chameleon. How long has it been in your care? Handling - How often do you handle your chameleon? Feeding - What are you feeding your cham? What amount? What is the schedule? How are you...

Well we all understand how difficult it is to care for chams properly especially with so much misinformation out there. While you are here, you should take advantage of having a complete husbandry review on your setup. There is a firm which I do not have on hand right now that you can complete...

Hello and welcome Ed. Nice looking Chamily you got there. We have photo contests here so keep that in mind when you take that special Pic.

Hello and welcome so sorry to hear your baby has gotten burned. Burns normally start off looking more like scrapes. As in one of you pictures. Don’t freak out if all the area turns black. This may happen depending on how deep the burns are. It will turn hard and the black scab will eventually...

Oh Jann, I know your heart is aching. We will all miss your posts of his beautiful face And loving temperament RIP Wilson happy hunting in the heavenly hunting grounds.

Well I think age comes into play with pricing. The young ones usually go for less then say a full grown Cham which has required more upkeep and expense.

You should take pictures of his progress.

Oh so happy to hear that. Well just keep it up and be patient. As long as it not spreading. You will really be able to tell after he sheds a few times. When it comes to skin. They are very slow healers. So don’t give up if the reaction is as fast as you like!

The vet can give you Carnivore Diet As ell as the feeding syringe with the rubber end. Do not feed him with tongues as they can cause injury too. You and he will have to develope a feeding ritual that works for both of you. It can be done and sometimes you have to think outside the box. The...

Wow MissSkittles gave you a lot of info to deal with but let me assure you she is one of the best. First off when they molt it can be stressful. The good thing is molting when they are young is a very quick ordeal. The are dry shedders so too much humidity or helping them with water can result...

Well I would put him on the carnivore diet asap. That way you don’t have to worry about him losing precious needed weight. You can get a rubber extension for the tip of the syringe that way you can open his mouth and administer from the side. I would try sutures before any amputation but that’s...

I need new eyes!

Beautiful.
