The cages LLL has are the same ones I get. They come with a couple of tie downs (for lack of a better term) that screw into the cage's frame. You can hang biovine in there or make a support to hang a hanging plant. It's a new feature of the cages now. I think you'll like the cage. They're...

If anyone in the Los Angeles area is interested in buying trees for their cham cages, listen up. I'm going to be picking up a large order (large for me anyway) of pesticide-free, organic trees grown and kept in a pesticide free environment. I'll be making the drive on the weekend of the 21st...

I was given a new (gently used) small chameleon cage with lights and furnishings. If anyone living near Woodland Hills, CA needs it, please contact me. The size is ideal for a baby or juvenile chameleon or maybe a dwarf species if set up [email protected]

I would dilute it with some water, about 50/50 and just give her as much as she wants. I've had good results with this when rehydrating rehabs. It isn't a cure, just helps get electrolytes in her as well as fluids. Sorry I don't respond very quickly.

She has to lay those eggs. She's already pushing them out if that one you saw was indeed an egg. I'm not in favor of oxytocin but that's a choice we all have to make. For hydration, you can provide pedialyte through a dropper and just give her the amount she wants. Not too fast either. Good...

How long has he been acting differently? When I notice something change, a fecal test is a good start to determining what is/isn't wrong. These guys can get a little muddy looking when they aren't feeling so good.

It's always worth the effort to go in and help a chameleon (or any animal in despair) by explaining what you see. Don't get emotional though. Just express what you see wrong and help them fix the problem. If it's just a matter of changing lighting or raising temps or providing water, some pet...

I feel bad for you. All of that work and to lose them all so quickly. Doesn't matter how much experience one has, you can lose a lot of animals with one little mistake. I've heard this close to a dozen times, experiences just like yours. Please don't give up. That's all I can say. Don't...

Beautifully put!

It is great to hear you are having success with this. Keep up the efforts. I'm looking forward to your progress.

Hey Guys, I haven't been around here much but I appreciate the continued referrals from this forum. I've been able to help out several chameleons because of it and have moved them on to great new homes. I'm usually available by phone but beginning next week I will be unavailable in the...

That's very exciting! I hope you have success with this breeding. They are beautiful chameleons. I only know of a couple people who have bred them. It's been a while.

Hi, If he's lethargic, the first thing I would do is increase his hydration by getting him to drink from a pipette. I've used clear Pedialyte to get them started then followed up with filtered water. This can help pass things through the GI tract and they get a little energy from the...

If he's 3 weeks old then the glass tank is fine. Save your money to make a good set up when he gets a little older. He needs humidity when that young. But the position of your lighting is not beneficial to him. You will need to place the UVB light over the enclosure. Regarding the yellow...

My job is to provide a temporary home until a permanent suitable home can be found for the chameleon. In the cases where a chameleon is disabled, very sick or injured in any way, I consult with my vet and then wait to see if the chameleon can recover. If it does, then it gets adopted out. If...

Give me a call at 818-219-9315. I'll pick up any chameleon I can drive to. I'm in Woodland Hills but will be happy to drive to anywhere in southern California.

One time I goofed and forgot to include directions. Thankfully they are online.

Chris, thanks for the explanation. :)

That's what I was wondering and why I posted about having a vet suture the area closed. I figured that Chris would have a pretty good idea. That bone is normally enclosed in the tongue tissue.

Wouldn't there be a problem with having an exposed bone? My vet performed two surgeries on chameleons that were in really bad shape to remove the tongue because of permanent damage and in both cases, he sutured enough of the tongue to cover their hyoid bone. If there is nothing to cover the...
