Happy gotcha day!!!

Just want to say hello and welcome. I’m so glad he made it through the night. I have nothing to add as you are in the best hands possible right now. These keepers helped me get my guy with MBD back on track when I came here. Keep posting. Keep asking questions. I’m rooting for you and this...

Even though he is only eating crickets, continue offering other feeders. Chameleons are like kids when it comes to new food. Sometimes it takes them a few tries to decide if they like it or not. I recommend dubiaroaches.com for other feeders like dubia and BSFL. They are awesome.

Ok good. Just give him all the water he wants. 🤞🤞

So it’s not uncommon for them to ‘tuck themselves in’ for bed early. An hour or two before bedtime isn’t typically a cause for concern. But with the sunken eyes it may be cause for concern. Hopefully someone else will come along soon and help us out.

Ok. Yea they still need the hydration, just do not spray them directly. Chameleons are dry shedders and getting them wet will make the shed stick. So still mist the cage, he will still need to drink. Hopefully it’s just dehydration or stress. I’m not an expert and I’m just going off of what I...

Ok. How often are you misting and how? Is it automatic or are you misting by hand?

Ok I just went back through your other thread. Were you able to upgrade anything yet? The UVB is very important. Honestly it could be a number of things. Sunken eyes can happen from stress, sickness, dehydration, pretty much anything. Is this the first time you have noticed him at the bottom...

Hello! So the eyes sinking like that is not normal, and would not have anything to do with the shedding. Have you done a husbandry review?

Maybe he has something stuck in his eye? This happened to my guy once. I got some plain saline contact solution and dropped some in his eye and it seemed to help

Did he shed right before he started doing this?

Sounds like you are doing everything you can. Just take it one day at a time, and ask as many questions as you need. @MissSkittles and @kinyonga are the best around so you are in good hands. It’s a lot of info, so just keep doing like you are and making changes one by one. I’m rooting for you...

Check out dubiaroaches.com for feeders. I love them. Have never had an issue with them. They are fast shipping and so nice. Great quality. You can get the small size horn worms from them and they should be small enough for your guy. They send tinyyyy ones when you order the small.

You have to upload to another site, I use instagram, then share the link. YouTube works too

Mine is named Spaghetti soooooo don’t ask me

🙃 somehow I missed the photo of your cutie in the first post 🤣

just want to welcome you. Everyone here is super nice and helpful. Do you already have your chameleon? My suggestion is the kit that @BleuSaphir linked a bit further up in post #8. It has all the supplies you need to get started and will set you up for success from the start. You definitely...

I don’t want to say 100% that’s what it is since I’m not a vet. But it is very likely the issue. While you are waiting for the correct UVB, if it is warm enough outside, some natural UVB would be good for him. Just do not leave him alone for even a second! They can be fast and predators are even...

I was just double checking my review and noticed I told you the wrong brand UVB. NOT REPTIZOO you want zoomed or Arcadia. I’m sorry for confusion!

And please keep us posted!! Let us know what the vet says and any updates. We tend to worry about others chams as much as our own.
