Make sure to give your new plant a good drainage layer in the bottom of the pot to avoid root rot. Make sure the pot has adequate drainage holes too. Just about every plastic pot that I’ve bought I’ve had to drill drainage holes thru.

Happy birthday beautiful Chanel! 🐷🎂 Those baby pics! Squeeee! 🤗

Hi. Beautiful boy! 🥰 You’ve got some great larger plants. Are you looking to add smaller ones? Pothos is the workhorse for chameleons and does come in different varieties. If you place it on the bottom and train it to grow upwards, the leaves will grow bigger. Tradescantia zebrina is another...

Hi. I’m going to guesstimate a little bit younger at about 2-3 months old in those pics. Are you certain you have a boy though? It’s hard to tell from your pics. Boys will have prominent tarsal spurs on their back feet, like this. Boys will also start to be showing these kinds of patterns at...

I use the methods in @Beman blog still. One of the most important things I’ve found is to keep my body as far away as I can and just fully extend my hand out while not making any eye contact at all. Eventually neither of those things will matter much, as your chameleon has learned to have some...

Thank you! Little cutie! 🤗 I am a ‘cat lady’ (currently with no cats) so do love to see them all.

Where is the obligatory pic of this kitten who lives on the wild side?

Looks like a piece of stuck shed to me. It should flake off when ready.

You want to use the calcium without D3 at every feeding. The multivitamin/D3 combo you use for only one feeding, every other week or two times a month, whichever is easiest for you. Lightly dust his feeders with the supplement. You don’t want or need them to look like powdered donuts. I put a...

These are both vitamins and using that particular Repashy daily is going to overdose on vitamins D3 and A. Both are fat soluble, so aren’t quickly eliminated in the body and can build up to toxic levels. You need a phosphorus-free calcium without D3. Repashy Supercal is a good one and doesn’t...

Interesting. I use diatomaceous earth all over for pest control where I can’t use chemicals.

Sounds like you’ve got a good grasp on things so far. I’ll probably tell you things you might already know, so just smile and nod if you need to. 😂The minimum size enclosure for adult chameleons is 2x2x4’, so as long as you have that, it’s fine. I just like encouraging people to go larger if...

Gorgeous! 💗

You aren’t a bother at all. :) I usually hop on and off of here a few times a day…usually. I want people to succeed in keeping their chameleon happy and healthy, and sometimes a little, or a lot of help is needed. From what I can see of your guy, he looks good. He’s well fleshed out and looks...

Fram’s chams also sells silkies.

Hi and welcome. :) Very hard for me to determine if he’s too thin or not. Are you able to get some better pics - preferably without the screen in the way? If you can’t do it without risking stressing him (if you just got him), don’t worry about it. Instead, let me give you this. I would like...

Congrats to the winners! 🥳

I’m sorry. 🥺 Poor guy. This is pretty much what happens though…they hide that anything is wrong until the end or very near to it. RIP Marvin

Still as handsome as ever! 🥰 I recently came across the video of him waiting at the door & walking thru your courtyard. One of my favorite chameleon videos! 🤗

I have to agree with everything, except I’m not able to judge how old your guy is to determine if he needs a basking light or not. Usually under 3 months old, they don’t need temps above about 78. Then we give youngsters temps of 80. When the boys reach close to full size, we up their basking...
