I believe there is other life out there. To think that we our the only ones in the universe is highly unlikely. If you guys are interested in this kind of stuff you should check out the TV show Ancient Aliens on the History channel. It brings forth some good points on alien possibility...
I remember the thread where they were trying to sell that sickly chameleon. It's no surprise to see that now a year later they have a notice on their door.
I won't be able to make it Saturday but I will be there Sunday! If anyone wants to meet up drop me a PM. It'd be nice to meet some chameleon forum members.
I use leafy vegatables which contain a lot of water and cricket aid from Timberline (got a free package from the daytona show). The cricket aid serves as both a gutload and water for the crickets. Those along with some cricket crack provides for a perfect gutload and hydration source for the...
All my chameleons have eventually started hand feeding. It usually takes until about 3 months of age for them to start hand feeding (for me, at least). As soon as they figure out that you aren't a predator and in fact the supplier of food and they begin to trust you they should begin to hand...
I was in my 8th grade science class when I found out the bad news. Still remember the exact moment to this day.
I am now an American soldier and wouldn't change it for anything.
I feel lucky to live in Orlando. Dr. Alfonso is a great vet who's raised many chameleons himself throughout his life.
Great blog, Jannb. Thanks for posting a link to it.
You're right he's much too small right now to handle the heat. I did not keep my panther in an outdoor enclosure until he was approaching 4 months. I currently have another 8 week old panther that I keep inside. It's still much too how to be keeping him in an outside enclosure.
I live in Orlando and I have my 5 month old panther in an outdoor enclosure 24/7. Just make sure he has plenty of shade and is sprayed at least 3x a day and he will be alright. The natural sunlight helps them tremendously.
At 11" your cham can most likely eat an adult roach with no problem. If you want to make sure a feeder is ok for your cham to eat make sure it is not bigger than the spacing between the chameleons eyes.
As for freezing a dubia roach to use for bait it will probably die. They are tropical and...
Well cricket crack is not used for dusting it is used for gutloading your crickets with so that they are more nutritious for your chameleon when eaten.
As far as a good supplement to use for dusting I would say that the Rep Cal products are the most commonly accepted and widely used...
It's safe to dust daily with. It has d3 but in such small amounts that it can be used daily instead. Personally I would dust with it M-F or M-Sat and give a day or two break a week.
