I'm sorry about the bad quality of the picture, by the way. It was taken with my iPad!

Hi guys, (I wrote this topic this morning, but I've added some information about my chameleon and his terrarium. Sorry for not doing that earlier!) I just checked the temperature in Thomas's flexarium, and I noticed that his ribs were kind of sticking out and that he has a little lump on the...
