    Advice needed 🙏

    Chameleons and Chitin

    You make me work…reading all these studies…but it’s interesting stuff! Thanks for posting! So…now I have a question for you…do chameleons have cellulose in their digestive system? Do they get any from their insect diet that they can use to digest cellulose in their digestive system?

    My gravid cham is sick!

    If that’s truly when he mated her and true that she’s gravid, then she’s likely eggbound. They usually lay the eggs about 30 or so days after the mating. An X-ray would show wether she’s full of eggs or not. The problem is, that if she really is egg bound, at this point, because she’s going...
