    Are my BSFL dead? How did I kill them?

    I think they are dead because they have been like this over a month, but I just want to double check before I toss them. I bought ~200 and fed off maybe 30 before they all just stopped moving. I thought, it’s cold in the room, maybe they are just conserving energy. I put them by the basking...

    Dubia Colony Clean Up Questions

    About 3 months ago, a family friend gave me his dubia roach colony. There are about 300-400 Dubias of various sizes in the colony, and I'd say 100-200 mealworms. According to him, it is a fully self-sufficient Dubia/mealworm colony which he had been keeping for 2 years. He said that it doesn't...

    Swollen Eye?

    I used it twice last month and he's improved a little. I'll consider making it part of his regular schedule. Thank you!

    Swollen Eye?

    I have not caught him misting his own eyes, but I haven't been around for the misting in some time. I have a nice fine hand mister so I've sprayed a little above him before to see if I could help him flush his eyes a little. He blinked a lot, but didn't seem bothered by the water.

    Do Chameleons have people preferences?

    Is it weird that I'm happy about that? :ROFLMAO: maybe I'm selfish but I want him to prefer me, especially since I know that building trust will take a lot of work.

    Do Chameleons have people preferences?

    I'm wondering, are chameleons able to distinguish between different people? If I tame my chameleon and build trust with him, will he associate that trust with all humans or only me specifically? I just got a new panther chameleon and I'm curious what to expect. What has been your experience?

    Breeder Question: Is this a red flag?

    Howdy Cham Breeders! I was expecting to get my first chameleon September 1st when the batch of babies is finally 3 months. We called the breeder today and he informed us that out of his batch of 29 babies, 17 died and only 12 are left, with only 2-3 males (and since 2 customers were before us...

    New Cham and Enclosure Review

    Oh, didn't know that about the colored grow lights. What is it that the colored lights do that messes with the chameleons?

    New Cham and Enclosure Review

    Well the 150W bulb wasn't my first pick. Initially I went with just a normal 100W house bulb, because I remember someone saying there's no need to purchase a basking bulb specifically. However, I had the normal house bulb on for 2 days and couldn't seem to get the basking temp above the low 70s...

    Ah, yes, I don't think dirt is part of a balanced chameleon diet 😂 thanks, I'll go looking for some rocks.
