I've read under scientific studies that Chameleons "Don't" overeat. But these studies were based on wild chameleons. Perhaps there is a difference between wild and captive. However the live feed that I put into my cage to roam free iis only eaten when my chameleon wants it. Not when she see...

Please post a pic so that we can help understand the issue and what to recommend for treatment.

Well not that a lot of people around have time on their hands or gifted craftmanship to deal with a DIY Thing-Of-Ma-Gig. People like me who have the cash to toss out on a setup that works is what most of us are willing to pay and from that setup and from prices I've seen from others is that is...

I'd buy it if I didn't have one that already worked. I find the price comfortable myself. I would continue to recommend it. True dat is that if you want something that works out of the box then this sure looks like a product to be pointing out.

Night Tempatures: I know there is alot of discussion on this and I guess I'll point out what I use to control when a IR light turns on with my setup. I use a Ranco Adjustable Digital Thermostat to control when my IR light turns on. The position of the IR Light is not over a location that...

Position of the Tube is important. I myself have my Spot Lamp just off the edge off the UVB Fixture so that while mine is in her basking spot she is exposed to the UVB and the Sport Lamp. Keep in mind that if you do move yours to the back that it need to be within 12" of her basking spot to...

Is the IR Light all that you offer her to bask under? IR should only be used as heat at night when tempatures drop below 60. There should be UVB and UVA light source. These will promote hunting food and digestion. Lack of UVB will cause serious problems while UVA (Spot Lamps) will promote...

Thats why it is a good idea to supliment dusting cycles with power that does not have D3. Multi-Vit 2 days a week, Calcium only without D3 2 days a week, Calcium with D3 2 days a week, and one day a week no dusting at all. Most people only dust 1/4 or 1/3 of the feed they offer. I do...

BTW - Happy B-Day. Hope you and your cham are having a great day.

Sleeping and just hanging upside down is a natural thing. But if he does it all the time can also mean that he needs more room.

Your chams legs look very square to me. So its visable appearance does not suggest that. Most that do have MBD have very round elbows/knees.

Anything is possible with cleaning out a cage. Example: Moving plants out to sun and/or clean or swapping plants in and out. Its impossible to catch anything like that for a spider that can get in. I'm not going to say this is no doubt a spider bite but a possible idea. The fact that their...

Is there any signs of a bite? Perhaps a spider bite him? I would think a fall would show up in the x-ray but a bite may not. I don't even see any darkness on his back above the whiteness that is creeping up his tail Does it get outside exposure without a cage or such?

Regardless of the above mumbo jumbo, THANKS FOR THE TIP and I see no reason why you shouldn't let us know about such bad online purchases.

1.0.0 means 1 male, 0 femal, 0 hatchlins. 2.2 in the question you ask means 2 males, 2 females.

That seems to be a common tip used here to take a break from crickets for a week or so then introduce them to him again. Perhaps wingless fruit flies, mealworms etc.

Hanging upside down is actually normal at times and if he was doing it with just his back legs with no tail then he's still got some good strength in him. Glad to see your not giving up on him but also look into the fact that they do have hunger strikes and misting them helps them get thru it...

That really small for normal size crickets. Like I said PinHead/Small crickets would be best. The size does intimidate them but if their hungrey they are going to try to eat it anyhow. If you dashed out and got a dozen smalls I'm sure your cham will go hog wild on the little ones.

Looks like humidity rises at night. About 5%-10% in a controled enviroment duirng the day. Seems once the heat sources are turned off it rises.

Honestly your best off local. Find a nursery that does not use pesticides and chances are they have been keeping good care of it for a month or so that will help with the possible exposure to chemicals. I myself looked online and found nothing. I do believe transport of plants are not legal...
