    parasite? bacterial? fungal?

    Hard to tell from that pic. Could it be a burn?

    R. brevicaudatus with closed eyes?

    Yes especially as i have experienced, where a thermometer is out by two or three degrees. That possibly then makes temps 28C or more.

    Freddie isn't settling in

    You don't really need the ceramic either. I kept my veiled in the mid/high 40'sf during winter nights. Without any problems. Veileds don't really need lots of spraying. It's important to let the enclosure dry out between spraying. Twice a day should be fine, morning & evening, especially if...

    R. brevicaudatus with closed eyes?

    Your temps could be a little on the warm side. Is that maximum temp at substrate level? How accurate is your thermometer do you know? What night temps are you keeping them at? Does she show any signs of stress from being in with the male? I would try housing her alone if you can. See if that...

    Jacksoni shedding problem.

    I'm going to clean out the tank today. Will throw away the substrate, but was wondering if i can use the live plants in another tank at some point? Also the back & sides of the exo terra, are covered with coco fibre panels. Should i clean these & how would be the best way? Dont really want to...

    Jacksoni shedding problem.

    Thanks fellas. Real shame tbh, & quite a shock (though i must admit i feared the worst when i saw him yesterday evening), as he seemed to be doing so well. Although i have only recently started keeping montane species (kept yemens & panthers for six years, a few years back) i'm fairly confident...

    Sleeping Schedule

    Yes same as mine, set on timers. All my animals can tell the time :D Mine are also all ready for bed approx an hour or so before lights out, all curled up & comfortable, & nine times out of ten. On the same branch each night.

    Looking for a good beginner chameleon.

    Male panther chameleon & if possible, Nosey Be locale. Always found this particular locale, really tame & a pleasure to keep.

    New To Chams needing some wisdom

    Yeah i think it's a female jacksons, but which sub species i'm not sure. It's not a panther. Mmm! Not so sure now looking at those pics. Does look like a panther. I can't enlarge the pics?

    Freddie isn't settling in

    Firstly, if he isn't drinking he's unlikely to feed. But judging from what i can see in the pic, he doesn't appear to be dehydrated. Try using a small hand held spray bottle, with a fine mist & direct it at his mouth. It may take several attempts, but persevere & you might need to spray him for...

    Freddie isn't settling in

    I find it makes things worse to leave prey items in the enclosure if the animal is not really interested. Usually in my experience, they just stress the animal, especially if they are climbing all over him. If they are interested in feeding, they usually do so right away, or at least show some...

    Need good brand for UVB and Basking lights!

    Yep, same here. I use these above my enclosures. The plants do really well under them too. Forgot to add, i use reflectors with mine too. http://arcadia-reptile.com/fluorescent-lamps/t5-d3-forest/ I just use 20w GU10 halogen flood's for basking (i keep montane species).

    Jackson cham wont eat.

    Whatever you do, don't force feed it. Like Carol said, it most likely just needs time to settle in to it's new home. Also i personally wouldn't feed meal worms to that age chameleon. Stick to well gut loaded crickets for now. Can you get some blue or green bottle flies? Jacksons, or any...
