Hi, he has been resting the whole day, haven't moved much, will see what he does after i give him some food after work, that's when he usually starts moving a lot. Haven't seen a big or noticeable improvement just yet, but i have faith. I guess it will take some time. Went to the vet today to...

Hi Guys, thought id share what it looks like when i have to feed Ego after work. His jaw muscles are really strong so trying to open his mouth without hurting him is a challenge. I would never in my life ever thought of using this type of force on him. Im always gentle with him, always move...

Hi all, thank you for keeping us in your thoughts and prayers, i really really appreciate it. Ego's still here, i realized when he got hurt his hind legs didnt have much strength. at the moment they are gripping my finger hard enough to cut off blood circulation in my finger(not constant, only...

Hi guys, just thought id give an update, The specialist that had a look at Ego's xray's said that she doesn't see any internal fractures but she would rather not give him any Cortisone, as it suppresses their immune system. I will get the full report when i go and fetch Ego's antibiotics...

Hi guys, just an update on Ego. The vet did Xrays and they found there is something wrong with one of his vertebra just behind his head. They are going to send the xrays to a exotics specialist in Johannesburg SA and see what she says. They gave him some more cortisone(they say it helps with...

Hi guys, Ego is still resting( correct me if im wrong, but the longer he rests, the more it will help against any swelling since when he does move he sways around from side to side possible aggravating the swelling), i haven't taken him back to the vet yet, its only scheduled for later. They...

Hi Guys, my little man fell on Saturday, after work i found him laying on the tiles. (free ranged) I picked him up slowly and carefully and looked to see if he was hurt, i could make out a small bruise between his forearms more towards the left behind his arm. I wasted no time in getting in my...

Update: Just thought id upload the latest pics of Ego. I have depleted the petstores stock of feeders... so now im breeding my own feeders. Will post my feeder breeder setup soon.

Nosy Panther Chameleon Owners, post post post :) Hi guys, for all the Nosy Be lovers/owners, please post pics of your blue dragons so we can all view their beauty :). Here are 2 pics of my buddy, Ego

awesome, thanks for the info Juliaf3 :). The pic of the jacket is about 3 days after i got him, he slept there for about an hour, until Explorer Mode was activated. He gets about 2 hours a day of pure sunlight on his plant outside, today he actually climbed down onto the grass and just laid...

i would take carol5208's advice :)

maybe to be safe dont spray directly on him until he is a little bit bigger. from your water dripper give him 3 drops, give him time to swallow a few times and repeat. i have seen threads about chameleons drowning from receiving to much water because they weren't given time to swallow everything.

Nah, only calcium+d3, i don't have calcium separately, will go get some today but he does luckily get time outside everyday. At what age do you classify a panther as an adult, Ego is 2 & half years old. How does that affect the amount of food that is to be dusted.

Yes, i offer him dusted(calcium + d3) crickets every 2 weeks so basically twice a month + he gets time outside everyday as well.

Installed a 60 watt light, seems to be doing the job :) Thanks.

Awesome, thanks Lpsouth1978, i will go get a 60 watt today :) and replace the black light.

yeah, i would say its definitely better as it covers a wider area.

Yep, i dust his food twice a month. Here are some pics of his enclosure. Please excuse the wires. The enclosure is built using aluminum and has a hardboard backside and mesh on the sides and top. His cage enclosure is due a clean this weekend and i also forgot to mention he has a mister that...
