Btw I live in Los Angeles, I have a great vet and have lights and stuff you can use and can help you get setup to see if this guy is going to pull through. Let me know if you are nearby and I can help!

It’s probably an abcess between the eyeball and eyelid. You need a vet visit asap. Its position will interfere with targeting correctly. Abcesses are different in chams than humans. It’s a sack filled with thick white stuff like cottage cheese. The best is to remove the entire sack then treat...

Welcome back! I am sure the wedding was fabulous. I wonder if it was rougher on you or your daughter? Hmm headless chicken🤫 I would say sounds like you got the harder crazier part of the deal but that’s what moms are for to make beautiful moments in their kids lives. All the pics of your Cham...

Omg I just looked at the bottom of the picture. It says Adult Male Veiled Chameleon $159.99. This is not something that happened overnight. This is long term neglect. Email or call your local aspca shelter and give them that pic and the store info and the vet name so they can make a case. If...

I totally agree that this is a crime. Take lots of pics and would you mind sharing the pet store info with us? Oh don’t use a heat mat like the ones you use for tarantulas. He will need heat from an incandescent bulb. Maybe you can rig something up. If he shows any kind of recovery he should be...

With Ecoli running rampart just make sure you wash each leaf real good. Also plant eating can change the color of her poo. Make it darker. That is normal. Try hanging it and if she doesn’t go for it cut it into two inch squares and put it in her food bowl. It may take her a bit to figure it out...

Bare floor is so much easier to clean and prevent parasites. Just make sure she has a way to climb off the bottom. Also if she is eating your substrate she maybe a Cham that enjoys eating plants. Try taking a whole piece of romaine lettuce, wash it good then tie it to something to see if she...

Looking good. Stuck shed at base of tail usually isn’t issue. maybe caused by vent. As long as it’s not the tip of the tail which can cause damage. As long as there isn’t a ring of shed that encircles the tail it’s ok. If there is just peel off a piece to break the ring and let the rest go on...

Ever since May my male veiled has had color variations too. Much brighter than usual and he is showing his “I am a big bad cham stance more often then usual. I figure it’s spring starting late in May instead of March and the heat and humidity elevations. Also people with allergies are...

It looks more to me like feces and a urate

That doesn’t look like a sperm plug to me. Put it in a plastic zip lock bag and if it’s a sperm plug it will shrink then harden. They have a wax texture to them.

Careful with the coco fiber. Freeze the whole brick for three to five days before using to kill parasites.

Hi and welcome. Beman’s advice is backed with a lot of knowledge and a ton of research. One thing I suggest is get a done masking fixture with a dimmer switch. That way you can alter it if the temp is off instead of moving branches. Oh the bulge is at the vent. Don’t be alarmed in the future if...

Welcome! I am so glad you came here when you did. With the knowledge of all the chameleon owners here you will be able to stop what is happening and fix things right up. Chameleons are climbers hence the splayed hands. Being up high makes them feel the safest so you need to create a jungle gym...

You can always cover the outside of one or two sides of the cage to help with humidity. I did the back and the sides the cords go down. A vinyl shower curtain liner works. Cut it to size and tape it to the frame. But I want to tell you that you have done a fantastic job. Soon your new son will...

This works well for me too. Mainly water the leaves of the plants and it drops the humidity. Just don’t mist him at night could lead to RI.

Enter that one in the monthly photo contest! It’s great

Well 21/2 months is too young to have sold him to you. 4 months is the preferable purchase age of a baby. A couple of suggestions. Don’t mist him directly with an RI. Must the cage and leaves well so he will drink off of them. Move the fake plant to the outside of the cage you don’t want him to...

Omg I am so sorry. We are all going to miss seeing his pics on here. Such a little character! I know you will miss him terribly but at least he is free from suffering. You did the absolute right thing! Sometime it sucks being a grown up! My thoughts and prayers are with you.

He sees your finger move and thinks it food. Perhaps hand feed him with a glove on that will give more contrast to the bug. Just avoid red they hate red. I recently have to wear a blue hand brace and he does his defense posture every time he sees it on me! Oh my would target my glasses. I...
