Veileds grow fast, and even though they look fully adult around 6-7 months, they continue to grow a bit more up until around 10-12 months I believe. Chameleonaire is quite handsome btw. 🥰
I would opt for a permanent feeding station, like the shooting gallery. https://tkchameleons.com/products/shooting-gallery?variant=30018608595032 Attach it, leave it in place and put the feeders in. It may take a short time for your guy to get used to it, but once he does, you’ll find him every...
The reason I was tagged - doh! Unless you are setting up a bioactive enclosure, it’s best to keep the floor bare, especially in an aquarium-type tank for a chameleon…which shouldn’t even be in this type of tank, but…. Wood chips, moss (real and artificial) and things such as this pose serious...
I’ve had a problem with pests getting into my feeders, even when I had them in the house. Yes, I’m also in Florida. I took some lids from my biggest storage bins that were extra, flipped them upside down and put a nice ring of diatomaceous earth in the dip near the edge. This works great for...
Hi! :) You’ve gotten some great feedback for your precious guy. I do have a few comments and additions for you. The first is have you taken him to a vet yet? He does have significant mbd, and a vet can help greatly with his recovery…vitamin injections, special more potent calcium, etc. He will...
I love that purple snail vine! I’d love to plant it in my backyard, but I don’t have a good history with that. Everything usually either dies or very literally takes over the little wildlife area behind my house.
I have to wonder if Spooble has been born with the tendency to accumulate or form the plugs. It’s not really anything that can be proven/disproven other than if they continue to recur in spite of your best efforts to prevent them. I do hope that this is not the case and that your handsome fella...
I try to keep a nice thicker layer of leaf litter and some decent sized pieces of cork bark for the isopods to hide under. Just this morning I caught my two girls hunting their clean up crew. Occasionally I’ll give the cuc some of whatever I’m feeding my feeder insects - I put it under their...
I have to disagree about the silkworms. They are quite nutritious and make a great staple feeder, and yes, they are hydrating as well. :) I’ll provide info to back this up later…no time now.
Lightly dust with phosphorus-free calcium without D3 at every feeding.
At one feeding every other week, or twice a month if you prefer, lightly dust with either Repashy Calcium Plus LoD OR ReptiVite with D3.
This regimen is great for panther or veiled chameleons and when used in conjunction...
