    Treating Wood?

    Anykind of paint that you put on will have a chance to peal sooner or later. I prefer some kind of stain/sealer as there really is no chance of pealing. there are a whole bunch brands some are better than others. Look for some thing with Low VOC's and outdoor use. Hope that helps OPI

    Need a little advice for my poor chameleon.

    What tests did the vet do to lead her to the infection conclusion? Injectibles are normally better way to deliver meds as it by passes problems with absorbtion and intolerance for the gut. follow what the other said and maybe we can offer more assistance. OPI

    Urgent: cham ate a bad silkworm

    Short of putting a straw in her butt and blowing really hard, there is nothing you can do. (sorry for the graphic) Just like chroma said. She should be just fine. Watch her poo and monitor her carefully. Good luck and hope that helps OPI
