Really? The breeder said it was a male. He also has displayed reds, oranges, whites, teal, and green. Here are a few other photos. The second photo he was puffed up watching a cricket.
My cham started to sleep on the foliage widely exposed as opposed to in the foliage like he used to. Nothing has changed, but he seems to be happy slept in his new spot.
Any of your chams do this or have done this?
I completely agree. I am always overwhelmed anytime I get a new animal no matter how much I know. the first three months are nerve wracking hoping that all your hard work into putting and setting everything up is on point and that you didn't make any mistakes.
So, I have to say that in my short time on this forum that I have witnessed a great deal of people making those comments and I don't get how people can be cruel. I don't even know you and I understood that there may have been an underlying issue to your health that was a factor to your messages.
I just recently joined and I had read numerous threads that made me second guess being on this forum. If it weren't for the fact that I already have reptiles and and overly familiar with proper husbandry I would've definitely found another place for information. I don't think it's any place for...
You shouldn't really be handling your cham unless it's to do an inspection. If you must handle your cham I personally wouldn't do it more than twice a week. She is telling you to leave her alone. No matter our intentions reptiles in general are mostly solitary creatures. They don't like to...

So, he just wants to make sure his cham is going to be safe if he chooses to feed it wasps and bees. This should resonate with everyone on this forum. Other than the video he hasnt gotten any proof or real reassurance that his cham will be safe. You can say all day long you have done fecal...
I would love to but the article has been removed. Also, my post wAsnt meant to be taken seriously or anything but to state that it was interesting that a scientific article was stating the contrary.
I tried looking for that article again, but I couldn't find it. Every other article gives the appropriate ranges of 50-80%. It reminded me of old care sheets dry breeders use for tortoises.
@ZEROPILOT
how's your tort doing?
I read an article yesterday, peer review in fact, that stated that chameleons only need 50% humidity at all times. Anymore, isn't helpful. Higher humidity can lead to tail rot and other health problems. Now, I'm aware that there are many different schools of thought and each one with pros and...
