Every now and then Larry will be hand feeding and air will escape his mouth after his tongue shoots and before it retracts. It sounds like a combination of a squeal and a hiss.

If you are using tweezers, you could probably do an approach parralel to the chameleon's eyes so there is much less of a nose or eye poking risk.

A few weeks ago, Larry shot my hand instead thinking it was feeding time. Long story short, I panicked because he could barely use his tongue for the rest of the night. He was better in the morning but I had never felt so bad since I thought I maimed him. Live and learn.

On an unrelated note, you have an absolutely gorgeous chameleon :)

I could be wrong but I am pretty sure that is pus. That wouldn't be very good :/

You did come off as rude to be honest. The part that throws off your argument of just 'wanting to see the animal get better' is that your only supporting argument for not letting him back into the wild was because of its monetary value. I don't think any of us want to see a chameleon die. Common...

What should we suggest? Finding them inside?

I suppose it could be a twitch. It isn't hugely subtle and he chills out after a few seconds. Maybe its just him bein him :D

When I start spraying his enclosure down he does a few subtle head-bobs. He drinks his water normally and doesn't display any 'I'm mad at you' colors, I'm not sure what the little bobs though mean. Any ideas on what it means?

Great looking little guy you have there. He could just have parents that were well taken care of. Stanley (one of Jann's pups) is a monster and I would say outsizes most other chameleons I have seen at his age.

Good God man! What are you feeding them, people? :D

Thanks :) Here is a chameleon forum exclusive: I just watered Larry and I left his cage door open since I was going to feed him a few minutes later. Larry never leaves his cage when I leave it open so I figured he would stay put. He wanted to go for a stroll apparently :rolleyes: I got...

I thought I would give a paparazzi exclusive :)

He definitely isn't fat, he saw me comin though with my camera and flattened out pretty quickly. Body size wise he looks pretty healthy I would say =)

Think I should go back to two feedings daily? I have read a bit saying that over feeding will lead to problems such as MBD down the road.

He looks like a Gustav or a Sanchez.

Larry is probably around six months old now and I imagine he might need to have his feeding schedule tweaked at some point. He was being fed twice daily for a good while and I started feeding him once a day a week or two ago. I am now trying to gauge if this will be alright for a while or if I...

I attempted to make some gut load out of blended apple, kale, banana, and some other vegetable and my crickets wouldn't touch it :/

My mom is deathly allergic to wasps and I'm not the least bit. Guess its the luck of the draw sometimes.

The link doesn't show anything :/
