Did you put anything new near his cage? I put a speaker on the floor near my chameleon's enclosure and she started pulling attitude on me until I figured out the only thing I had changed was that recently. I moved it and started to hand feed her (with the long tweezer tongs) and she started to...
Hey all, well I have now had Tia for almost 6 months and she is doing awsome. She is very familiar with her surroundings now, she climbs all over the cage walls its actually quite funny when I get home and I find her basking upside by the UV light.
She is easy to handle when its necessary, I...
The store said she was about 1.5 - 2 years old but I think she might be a bit younger. I mist often have a drip system and a humidifier in the tank but not sure if she is drinking she looks kinda skinny at times and she is a Veiled
I am wondering how often is normal for a chameleon to deficate? Either my baby is hiding her fece's or she just isnt pooping. I look daily for any to clean it out but its been about two weeks now since I last saw any fece's or urinate. Is this normal? She eats about 2-3 large crickets per day...
I want to thank you all for your advice. I have put my drip right above the large log climing thing the wood is sucking up the water. I took out one of the UV bulbs and now she is not hiding all the time, she is sitting right out in the open so the bulb was definitely bothering her eyes. I put a...
My only tip is to Listen to what these guys tell you, they know a lot LOL. I joined only a couple weeks ago when I got my first reptile also and they have all really helped!
Also, I kinda had to use a cricket as bait for her to come out of the cage. I covered my hand with leaves and grasped a cricket with some chopsticks and kinda led her onto my hand to get her in a box filled with plants till I changed it. That should be okay right? After when she had to return I...
I have removed the soil from the bottom just now. It just has the plastic bottom that is recommended for the cage, I will go buy a grass carpet this afternoon.
This set up I have now cost me almost $1K no kidding, though that was with the price of her but money is not an issue for me, its...
The hood light itself has a spot for two, they are the small curly ones not the tube lights. I will remove the soil, but what should I put in its place, is it okay to use the fake grass type carpet for her? since it is a mesh cage I need something to save from water going on the table and floor
The stuff on the bottom is plantation soil, I go into her cage daily with a mini kitty poop scoop looking tool and I sift through the soil for any feces and give it a mix around to keep the moisture evenly distributed
Here is a better picture to show the size of the cage, it is actually quite large she basks in the heat lamp by sitting on the bushy leaves, she seems to like it, I have one branch going right underneath the basking light but she doesnt sit on it often
The lights are as follows
UV...
I buy my crickets in bulk, I take the cage outside and put a hole just in the corner of the bag they came in. They all slide out into the cage eventually I just leave the bag slightly hanging with the top shut down I also have a piece of egg carton in there it gives them space to life without...
