Also, Chameleons are preeetty slow sometimes! -shrugs- good luck ♡

Hey there! I would try adding some more horizontal branches a tad higher in the cage.. if your guy is hanging from the ceiling, it could likely mean your basking spot isn't warm enough or high enough (so he climbs higher to get warmer or safer feeling). From the picture of your enclosure, it...

Weird! Have you tried home depot? Do you have those near you? That's where we found ours, surprisingly they have a large plant selection.

Our veiled loves his schefflera - strong branches, tasty leaves, lotsa hidey spots.

Uh oh.. I'm pretty sure this is some sort disease. Forget the name. Something that stems from the breeder she came from.. I believe it's also contagious so if you have any other chams dont fraternize them & wash your hands. I'll keep digging for the name.. good luck ♡

Wow, thanks for sharing! Amazing. I've seen that black foam stuff in multiple cages - newb question - what IS it?

@somerandomband Aww shucks! You're too kind :rolleyes: ...And chameleon kisses ARE the best. I just love the energy they bring with them - patience, observation, calculated & deliberate movements. I think we could all learn a thing or two (or a thousand 'cause they're kind of complicated) from...

We mostly feed silkworms & hornworms - The couple times we've let them free range, they end up pupated at the bottom, buried in the plants or in places our cham can't reach. Also, they're fairly expensive.. so when multiple worms evade our chameleon, it starts to add up. Therefore, we cup feed...

Ah! Drat. Okay. I'll have to get my timing down better & hatch a male & female around the same time.. Someone from Chameleon Central USA (FB Group) was also really helpful: "I try to have at least 6-8 trying to get a pair at the same time. Males will live a bit longer assuming they are fed. Last...

Wow, I'm so glad I found this blog - Thank you for compiling all this info in once place!! I do have a question - We've successfully hatched a female moth & have a few other pupa's on deck. She has the enclosure to herself & has randomly dropped some little blueish orbs that look like eggs...

From Poop 101: "Urates should be white, soft but firm and may have a chalky texture. A yellow tinge is okay but orange urates indicate that your chameleon may not be getting enough water. If your chameleon defecates infrequently the end of the urates may be more orange but the rest still looks...

Nice! You might wanna check out Poop 101: https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/poop-101.120171/ Also, filling out the below survey "how to ask for help" could help us pinpoint where the dehydration is coming from... Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - The species, sex, and age of your...

Yes - the yellow urates suggest dehydration. Is your cham pretty regular? That looks like a big ole poop lol

Whats up Cham Fam! It's been a while - just as a quick update, Buddha's doing great! His edema still fluctuates, but overall he's thriving :) So... I've run into something unique & I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this... Long story short, we've been attempting to get a hornworm...

@Mawtyplant Wicked!! :cool:

You are aware of your chameleons leg situation, yes? It looks like he has severe MBD. You should fill out the "how to ask for help" in the forum section so we can learn more about how you've been caring for your chameleon. He looks like he needs a vet visit ASAP.

That black mouth is crazy cool! I'm hoping that's normal, yes? haha

This is my fiance Jake & Buddha, sharing a moment - Buddha was excited to climb in his new majesty palm.. but not before puffing up & holding Jake's finger for a bit first.

This is me (OP) & Buddha - Owning & caring for a chameleon has been the coolest journey so far. Every day we gain new levels of respect & perspective for chameleons & lizards alike.

Basking in the fruits of our labor lol (and looking super handsome of course!)
