    How old does Matcha look? Does she look too skinny?

    Beautiful little lady. 🥰 Is she showing colors or patterns when at rest or all the time, or is it just when she’s held or the raise stressed? If it’s all the time, then she is mature enough to start producing eggs.

    Custom cuts of glass?

    Within a few minutes after posting, it came to me that you might want a view inside the water. 😂 Ok, well…is it aquarium strength or thickness glass that you are needing? Can you get a tank (new or used) just to disassemble it for the glass you need? Have a glass shop person cut it to your...

    Is this cream safe?

    Generally an antibiotic is ordered to clear the infection. I believe I was given a version this product in the past for my dog’s ear infection, but he was also prescribed antibiotic. If you don’t see any improvement, or the area starts looking worse, say in the next week or so, definitely return...

    Custom cuts of glass?

    Ummm…the easy solution is to put a smaller tank into your big one. :p Maybe an acrylic tank that you could cut down if it’s too tall? Plant around any gap to hide it being a separate tank. Maybe some small parlor palms or similar.

    Flies in crickets??

    I have the dreaded gnats in my cricket and roach bins, but they aren’t the phorid flies…just soil gnats or fruit flies. To make life easier for my pet sitter when I went away, I set up my crickets bioactively (the roaches were already bioactive). Well, I guess the sitter put out too much food...

    Lucky’s eye

    Yes. Front arms in the bicep, poking between scales and alternating left and right with every dose (he gets a shot every other day). I have no problem poking people with needles, but hate when I have to poke my animal bebes.

    Help me! New chamleon owner!

    I can’t get my night time temps below mid 70’s without both freezing and bankrupting myself. So I don’t fog at night. I do have the mist king set for a couple of brief 15 second mistings during the night for a slight bump in humidity. Heat plus high humidity increases risks for respiratory...

    Help chameleon sitting still for long

    Hi and welcome. :) Little guy is using up a lot of energy to grow. How much are you feeding him?

    Lucky’s eye

    I don’t think it’s from over-supplementation. He’s very shy and waits until he’s certain I’m gone before eating, by which time his feeders have probably shaken off most of the dust. I dust lightly. The only time he eats in front of me is when it’s irresistible wormy feeders. He loves the wormies...

    Is this cream safe?

    Were you also given antibiotics, or just the cream?

    Laying Bin

    I’ve never seen a carpet chameleon irl, so not sure just how small they are. I think that depth would be ok, but not certain.

    Help me! New chamleon owner!

    Bare floor is best, unless you set up a true bioactive. Usually that is best left for after you get the hang of the basics, so bare floor for now.

    New chameleon not eating

    I think you know what I’m going to say. :) Get a fecal to rule out parasites. Is he showing any interest in drinking that you can determine? Maybe try covering at least 2 sides of his enclosure so he feels more secure. Does he have enough plant cover to hide in? If he’s used to eating...

    Help me! New chamleon owner!

    I keep my crickets in the garage. Every now and then there will be an escapee that chirps incessantly, but usually I can tune them out. It might not work, but I have found that if you put a piece of egg carton out near where the stray cricket(s) are, they sometimes will hide under it. Banded...

    Help me! New chamleon owner!

    As it is nearing the holiday season, it’s almost a certainty that the chain pet stores will be having some fantastic sale prices on ReptiBreeze enclosures. Or maybe you could even have Jax ask your family’s Santa’s for one…I’m positive he’s been the best boy ever this year. 😊 When making a...

    Lucky’s eye

    Hey folks. Thought I'd share what’s going on with my fella Lucky’s left eye. Maybe someone has a similar experience and can offer up input or what the end result was. Maybe in the future, this can be of help to someone else who may have this issue. As some of you know, Lucky was living wild...

    Help me! New chamleon owner!

    I realize I forgot to post some pics of my enclosures. (Typical for me 🤪) Perhaps that’s for the best though, as I’ve added one that I think you might benefit from seeing. Let me give you a bit of my history with chameleons though. I didn’t even really know what a chameleon looked like irl when...

    UVB-Baskin’ Rango

    Sweet handsome fella. 💗 He may not like the bamboo as it is quite slick and slippery, especially if it gets wet. Usually we advise against the little bridges and ropes as it can entrap claws and pull them out. However, in Rango’s case I do see that a bridge can be very helpful for him. I would...
