To this...some serious black. I've never seen him like this

He was fine to start but he then went a little crazy

Does appitite vary at all? When my female was the age of my male (5-6 months) she ate at least 3x the amount of food he does. Is this right? Do females hitting egg making age tend to pig out? Is their appitite possibly hormone based?

No she had a full hysterectomy 4-5 months ago. I think she's lazy/fussy as she nailed a wax worm this morning not at a great distance but with some power behind it

Was there a gradual recovery or was there a trip to the vets? It's strange because there is no difference to the movement it's not as if its swollen or raw it's just the standard dark navy and mucusy colour it's always been.

Just out of interest is there not the risk of pesticides?

They're quite susceptible to bacteria (not harmful to chameleons) but I learnt the hard way by not washing my hand s once and picked a couple up and within a couple of days a lot had died so I now use tongs. Also they only eat mulberry leaves or 'chow' (it's a pastey mulberry mix that they eat...

Definitely silk worms my two love them, problem I have is getting them as they're quite a delicacy to find in the uk so if anyone knows where to get them then a share of info would be amazing

My female yeme aged 8months has just come off a rather long hunger strike and its been going well for just over a week she started eating crickets and silk worms again with full extension of her tongue but now she's got a little weird I am monitering her and when I put in new crickets she...

Agreeing with most of the above. I had no clue when I bought my first. Was in a pet shop and the guy said how easy they are... and they're no trouble... So you put your faith in them and buy one. Not saying I regret it because I don't but I didn't know this site existed till my vet said as she...

That's an interesting question. I didn't realise the difference in price between reptiles and other animals like cats and dogs. Its a considerable gap. I had to get an emergency history tony for my female yemen which would have cost £400. Fortunately the other vet had quoted £270 o. A check up...

Hey guys and girls I'm in need of some advise. My 2 chameleons particularly my lady have just come out of a hunger strike and she has lost a fair bit of weight and my little guy has a bit to but they're both eating again which is a missive relief. Here is the thing the vet said to get...

Young chameleons climbing on the roof is common when they're new and settling in. Other than falling is he eating/drinking/ pooping ok? It may be a phase but I'd think about butting a towel at the bottom if possible to have something soft to land on. Sorry haven't really got much advise on...

It's quite sweet but it happens that fast it scares the crap out of me and its surprising the force/speed behind his tongue

Good evening, My male yemen has been doing the weirdest thing... He's fully launched his tongue at my finger the other day I'd had a silkworm there about 30 seconds before which he got but then I was fiddling with his temp probe and he shot me from 6-8 inches away and I had nothing there never...

I guess it varies I'm sure your aware chameleons have personalities my little boy Freddie is that "friendly" at the moment he will beg to come out and will happily climb out directly ontop my finger/hand yet Charlie my girl will tear my finger off given half the chance

This may sound wierd but it makes sense. I can't remember their name but most packs have 1-2 of them. They are harmless and they feed on dead crickets at quite a fast rate so to lower decomposition etc

He's stunning and I've wanted one since I first thought about getting one. I had an elliots but he got poorly and didn't make it but I have 2 veileds. What's their humidity like?

Your carpet is stunning. What are they like to look after?

I guess so as Freddie just launches himself up my arm to my shoulder then stays there. It's the difference in eating that is beginning to niggle
