Cage Info:
Cage Type - The cage I just got him in is a reptibreeze XL that I covered the sides and back in window film and then covered that with white corroplast. The door is covered in window film only. Bottom door and top are screen. Size is 2x2x4. Excellent and I’m so glad that you upgraded...
I’ll be putting my feedback in bold and since I tend to talk way too much, I’ll split this into two parts. 😊
Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - Veiled Chameleon, male, his estimated age is 9 to 10 months old, I have had him for almost a month.
Handling - We handle him maybe once or twice a week...
Hi. I haven’t done more than skim thru your post and saw that many have offered assistance. If you give me a bit of time, I’ll go thru it all more carefully and do your full husbandry review. :)
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.
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...
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...
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.
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...
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.
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...
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...
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...
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...
