He didn't eat at all today :( I tried to feed him this morning, usually he eats 2 crickets without issue right away. I left them in the cage and they were still there when I got back. So I did what I usually do (place the cricket a few inches from him) and waited and he still didn't eat. I...
The cat is 12 years old and has lived with reptiles her whole life, I am not worried about her bugging Ivan. I am also not worried about the dogs bugging him, they don't even know he is in there lol. They are also only in my room at night while I am there. I am more just worried about their...
I have 2 large dogs and a cat. Ivan (flapneck) is in my bedroom, the dogs are not in there during the day but sleep in there at night. Ivan's first two nights home I kept then out of I the room but last night I let them in. They went over to sniff the cage and Ivan immediately flattened out...
Thank you! The people who I got him from had him for a couple of months I think before I got him. He is eating (a little) and drinking water, seems somewhat active (more so since I got the heat lamp). When I get my student loan check (soon) I will get a fecal done on him. Thanks for all your...
I fixed my lighting, have a heat lamp, UVB light (compact florescent) and also added a regular florescent to keep the plants happy. My basking spot is at 85*f, ambient temp is about 78*F. Still need to get a humidity gauge. I also got a dripper from petco and have that dripping onto a branch...
Hopefully someone can tell from these what kind he is, it stresses him out to take pics so I don't want to do it again. I would like to know just so I can take proper care of him. He now has a name, Ivan.
So do Senegals eat plant matter or are they strictly insectivores? I got a compact hood for the top, but the compact UVB bulbs don't really seem to give off heat, or not much at least. Guess I am going to have to add a heat lamp as well. From what I've been reading I should also add a plant...
So it looks like they stay fairly small, will this enclosure be big enough for life then? Guess I will have to try my luck out with him and if it goes well get that panther I have always wanted lol. Kinda bummed, I was looking forward to having a big chameleon.
Ok, a senegal guess I will have to read up on those. I thought he looked a little different. Is it still a male though, with those bumps on the back feet? The people I got him from told me it was a veiled, that is what they bought it as.
Just got my first chameleon, was told it is a veiled. I work at a pet store and someone called saying they needed to get rid of it, so I told them to bring it in. Got the chameleon and set up for $20. Its a juvenile male (has the bumps on the back feet). He is in a 16"X16"X30" (LXWXH)...
