my male panther pooped for the first time in 2 weeks today. I used the bath method to make him poop. I put him in the bath with luke warm water just covering a bit of his stomach. He pooped after about 5 minutes. I did bring him to the vet about this problem and she thinks it might have...
what a brilliant line!!!
sorry but it was the first thing that jumped into my head when u wrote that!
You're dead right though. I was actually talking a second ago with a reptile shop owner who's very experienced and he said that it very well could have been a defence mechanism.
I'm...
I was spraying my chameleon with warm water the other day. He was on the plant initaially and then ended up on my hand and he started to fall asleep after about 10 minutes of spraying. I kept spraying him and when I finished up I brought him back to his cage and literally had to pick him up...
Ill start using the shower method more often so (how long for each session?)
I do also have quite a good misting machine which produces mist similar to the mist from a shower. It's a brand called nambia terra I think, a german crowd, really good!
He seems to be refusing water more often as he gets older alright, I'm not sure why so I am finding more ways to offer him water. That's my main mission with him now.I'm only introducing him to the drip method now, I always gave him water with the syringe and because he used to take so much...
I was wondering if anyone had any new and creative ways for hydrating their chameleon (I have a male Panther)
I have a good spray system which delivers a very fine spray. I also spray his cage with warm water three times daily and offer him water with a syringe and also with the drip method...
How long has it been since he deficated?
My panther went to the vet coz he was constipated (he ended up not going for 14 days!!)
We got it sorted out, the vet gave him plenty of fluids and he passed it.
Dehydration was the main problem so offer him as much water as possible.

He may just be starting to get sick of the crickets.
That happened my panther when he was about 11 months old.
He actually started eating them again (he's a year and 10 months now) but I was feeding him locusts in that time (and still am)
Locusts are great I find coz they always climb...
I never knew they can overdose on vitamin A. Ill get him some normal calcium powder aswell so.Ill try to get him some Superworms, mealworms, and wax worms too to vary things a bit.
I don't think he could have been bitten by anything, I normally feed him by hand. I am really starting to think...
ok illl stop using the broccoli so. He recently started eating crickets again so i'm happy about that coz i was a bt worried that he would go off them. Besides that I used to get him butterflies and moths in the garden in the summer but there's none around this time of year. I try to stay away...
Hi,
as of five days ago my chameleon started to have problems with the accuracy of his tongue and over the past two days he stopped using his tongue altogether. He will literally walk over to my hand and take the food from me. I have tried to position it away from him but he just stops trying...
Cheers for the help
Thanks for the replies lads, happy enough that the mouth colour is natural now. For the shedding problem, I received that shedding aid today but I got home too late to use it on him so ill check it out tomorrow and let u know how I got on. Also ill stop using that medication...
My Panther is a year old in since april and he started a new shed about two weeks ago although the only part of him that shed were his arms and legs. There is a bit of white skin on the top of his head that is seems to be slowly coming up but it's been there since he started to shed. I have...
