He does seem to be male looking at the color of him in the pictures. I want to say he seems a little younger than 5 months old. I would say 3-4 months maybe. He is a beautiful little man :) Try to think in a chameleons perspective. Raise the temp a little, and if the black still doesn't go...
Is there any possibility it is a female? The chameleon in my avatar is 4 months old, and you can see his color. In his cage he is still a grayish color but he does show some blue and green full time now. When taken out of his cage he shows the colors you see in the picture. I would guess that...
And yes shes been outside 4-5 times this year already! Along wirh my panther chameleon. I also take my argentine tegu out. Hes 40 inches now and he likes to stretch out his legs and get sun too. The neighbors are deathly afriad of him though lol
That is who we found online and ended up going too. He treated her very well and looked realy closely at her eye instead of just guessing. I might take her back and just see if he has any advice for why her eyes are doing this. We were ready to pay him and he said no petsmart covers the cost. He...
Okay thanks! My girlfriend lives in california and the plan was to originally ship her when she got home. But we are waiting for her eye to clear up before shipping her. Her eyes seem okay today i think maybe something was in them. I am also worried because at least 4 members have asked if...
Well first off i do have a panther chameleon, and i am fully aware of what hydrated eyes should look like. Pictures 1-2 are the best because the swelling goes away when shes out of her cage, and by the end of taking those pictures the swelling already was going down. So i know its not...

As a few of you know from previous threads me and my girlfriend "rescued" a female jacksons chameleon from the petsmart. She had many patches on various parts of her body that I thought were burns but were advised on here to be old injuries/bruising. The main concern was her eye which was...
There are some chameleons that tolerate handling, its not a written rule. There are actually many reptiles said to not like it at all but there are always exceptions. Double check your husbandry and if everything is on point then i would assume hes one of the few that dont mind it. Just watch...
I posted about her before and people thought she might be gravid.. at the vet i kind of mentioned it but he said she wasnt. I didnt really see him check her for that though, his focus was on her eye. I really hope she isnt gravid because im not sure how to care for babies :/
I rescued a jackson chameleon from the petstore last week and have made a thread about her before. Members here came
To the conclusion that she had multiple bruises/burns, and possible eye infection, but overall no signs of mbd. She has very strong grip and straight healthy limbs. My question...
I would probably try to do as suggested and set up smaller branches for easier gripping as well as keep padding of some sort on the bottom in case he does fall. I know what you mean, My first lizard i got was an argentine tegu who is now 8 months old :D then I got my first chameleon. very...
