@JacksJill might have some advice for you.

It’s called a “nictitating membrane” I believe.

Hope your chameleon isn’t eggbound. Part of what can push them to egg binding is overfeeding as they approach sexual maturity and temperatures that are too hot. Can you give us information on how much you’re feeding her and the temperature she is kept at? The substrate in your lay bin looks...

Photos of the chameleons that are having the health issues might help.

“The Chameleon is mainly distributed around the Mediterranean. It is present in the south of the Iberian Peninsula, Sicily, Malta, Greece and certain Mediterranean islands, presumably the result of ancient introductions. In Morocco it is widely distributed and occupies almost all the bioclimatic...

I don’t know…never did a study on it. All I can say is that I didn’t find any problems using my (Ontario Canadian) water for them when it was left out overnight like that. Using this as just one example…my veiled females almost always lived to be 6 or 7 years old..so I think I would have seen...

@ChameleonBoy26 …this might help…this is what I used to do…”Another chlorine removal technique is to leave your drinking water sitting at room temperature. While this process can also take 24 hours or more, it can sometimes be faster than putting your water in the fridge.”…...

“At least one of the mosquito bites appears to have induced a localized melanic color change, emanating radially from where the proboscis pierced the chameleon’s skin.”… https://par.nsf.gov/servlets/purl/10545422

I don’t remember…it was a long time ago now and I don’t have my records handy right now. I think the virus needs to be studied more to find out if there’s a reason it would shorten their lives if it happens in panther chameleons. There may even be more than one form of the virus like happens in...

“This is the first report of skin lesions in a chameleon species associated with HV infection.”… https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0021997520301626

So sorry for your loss. It’s hard when we lose them and all we can do is keep memories of them in our hearts. HUGS. Although it’s been said that these papillomas are basically a wart, over all my years of keeping chameleons, the couple I had that got it did live shorter lives than normal and I...

“A historical overview of documented occurrence of chameleon twins, triplets and quadruplets and their life history is presented, with reports on the first documented twins in Calumma parsonii parsonii (CUVIER, 1852) and Trioceros laterispinis (LOVERIDGE, 1932); second documented triplets in...

They look beautiful!

You’ve done well to get him to that age!

“This case study suggests the possibility that species of Isospora might not always cause disease because the animal that shed these oocysts showed no symptoms for more than two months.”… https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8437735/

You asked…”What made you suspect worms in its eye to begin with?”…it was along long time ago. I remember the eye globe/lid being swollen huge and I think someone who saw it said it could be from a parasite.

Even if she has a parasite, once a female is old enough to produce eggs, there should be a proper egg laying bin in the cage all the time.

Tongue colour…the whole video is not totally accurate…but I’m posting it to show the tongue colour can vary… One more… Last one…

I had a chameleon many many years ago that had a parasite/worm in its eye. The vet (not my regular vet..my vet was away) didn’t listen to me when I told him that’s what I suspected and treated it like a bacterial infection and the chameleon died. I had called the day it died and begged him to...
