Mango threw himself to the floor (laminate on concrete) last week when I tried to take him to get an extra silkworm. 😱 No matter how slow I move, he freaks out as soon as we approach the living room. I used to think it was the dog that scared him, but the dog is gone, so the next suspect is the...

I’ve often looked at my dried mango and wondered, but I love the stuff too much to share with my bugs. I’ve also looked at nuts and wondered. A few weeks ago I had dropped a cheez/peanut butter cracker and was curious so gave it to my adult roaches. I thought they might like the peanut butter...

The way around that is to have different species. ;) My girl panther is Nosy Be and my boys are Ambilobe. I do have a male and female veiled, but I would never put Stella thru that. (Her one and only love was Hammlet and he’s passed)

Happy birthday to our humble leader, Brad! Hope your day is super fantastic!

No, that is absolutely not normal. I have no idea why she would be doing that, but from the looks of the tail, she needs a vet visit asap.

Happy birthday Jillian!

How many insects are you feeding to her and how often? She does look a bit thin to me - her casque is a bit concave along with being able to see her ribs so prominently and her spine. Mealworms aren’t good feeders except for maybe in a pinch. Attaching the feeder graphic along with the ‘gutload’...

Of course I forgot the graphic. :rolleyes:

Hi. Nothing in your husbandry is really standing out to me except what you are feeding your bugs. Yellow and orange veggies are high in (proformed) vitamin A. This is the type of A which is water soluble and easily excreted and is the one which we are unsure if chameleons are able to utilize it...

I mist for 2 minutes each at around 8 AM and 7 PM, 1 minute at 2 PM and then 15 seconds around midnight and then 4 AM.

I’m in Florida and can’t get my temps below around 74 unless I want to go bankrupt. My electric bill is insanely high enough. I had tried a room ac but it just wasn’t enough. My solution is not to boost humidity at night except for a very slight amount. I run the Mist King for 15 seconds, twice...

I’ve heard of it being done in more southern Florida and find it totally irresponsible, amongst a few other negative things. It’s things like this that give reptile keeping and keepers a bad name and reputation. These poor animals are considered invasive here in Florida and like it or not, they...

No idea how long she’ll be around. My girl has been with me for 6 years and is around 6 1/2…she’s sometimes showing little signs of slowing down, but then gets right back to her usual. What is going on with her back foot? That looks painful to me. Does she have gout? Has she been to a vet recently?

Yay! She’s a little beauty! I’m so happy for you! 💗

Perfect! 😂

Babies! 🤗🤗🤗 I want them all! 🥰

When it gets dark, chameleons go to sleep. They will wake up once it’s light, but it’s best to let them sleep thru the night for about 12 hours. It is best to feed early in the day, so they have plenty of time to bask and heat up enough to properly digest their food. Little ones like yours...

If it was fully dark, then she is sleeping. Not sure I understand what the concern is.
