    My chameleon 1 foot is swollen

    You can't clean her eyes. She does it herself, when there is moisture in the air. That's part of why misting her cage is so important. Stay away from the meal worms, and stick to the crickets then. I don't what type of online shopping you have available to you. http://a.co/d/6mDF1A5, this...

    My chameleon 1 foot is swollen

    And our chameleons are solitary creatures. She does NOT like to be held. It stresses her out and causes unseen problems. Even if she runs out of the cage to you, it is likely that she is trying to get away from her cage, and not to you. Where is Durban?

    My chameleon 1 foot is swollen

    Carissa, Unfortunately, there is quite a bit of your husbandry (the way you take care of your chameleon) that needs to be corrected. These guys are very finicky, and will not thrive without very specific parameters. Here is a link to a care sheet, and it very simply lays out everything you...

    veiled on the ground

    I would think if you gave your vet a call, they'd answer this one over the phone, rather than make you come in and pay for an office visit.

    Setting up Leonardo's enclosure.

    I would think it's fine, but turn it upside down, and check all the joints. I've had ceramic decorations, made for reptile cages (bearded dragon), that drew blood on me, because of a sharp point. Check them for anything that might scratch your cham, or rust in the misting. I have seen lots of...

    I want to do it right

    Have you kept reptiles at all before? Chameleons have very specific and intensive needs. It might be better to show your parents you can be responsible with something really simple, like a crested gecko. With that species, you can handle them, and they don't require live bugs. You can also...

    Dark Colour Around Mouth

    Could the lighting fixture be a problem here, veterans? When you say double light fixture, are you using one of the coiled uvb bulbs? If so, they aren't very efficient, and your buddy may be lacking the proper uv to absorb his calcium. The beginnings of MBD can often be an inability to use...

    Cricket crack

    Sorry, I read too quickly. I thought you meant how long will the bag last, not each feeding. Again, a lot of different factors. Just check the food levels when you open up to get feeders, if you're feeding every other day. My dubias will clean out two egg slots worth in two days. Granted...

    Bumps on my female veiled chameleons sides?! Please help? Pics
