First I'd like to say how impressed I was with the customer service, not only did I receive my order sooner than expected, I was pleasantly suprized with a free gift (a 6 way power outlet) and a hand written note thanking me for my business (nice touch). So thank you Todd, I'll be doing...

I bought some from a pet shop once, my panther was afraid of it (and he's not afraid of much) I think he thought it was a snake. My jacksons just ignored it.

Sleeping with his head raised could be a sign of respiratory issues as well, this combined with the open mouth and popping makes me suspect a repository problem. I'd see a vet and get them to do a culture and sensitivity test. When my guy had a respiratory infection a member suggested using a...

I 2nd this, also meal worms are not a great feeder as they have a hard exoskeleton and aren't very nutritious the tiny super worms are a slightly better choice as they can be gut loaded, however they are still pretty fatty so it's best not to have them as the largest part of his diet. It...

My schefflera(s) do great, I like them best and so do my crew. I lost my first batch of trees because I repotted them in strait organic top soil, since I added sand to the mix they all do better but the schefflera does the best. I think it is most likely over watering/ poor drainage that is...

You can leave crickets (about how many you figure she will eat that day) roaming during the day, just don't leave them over night as they may bite your cham (or in the very lest disrupt her sleep) As others have said try a number of feeder worms (horn, silk, or even supers) also flying...

Nice, I want some (darts and eco zone). did you get the network issue resolved? Keep us posted. p.s. What's the plan with the fan?

Your best bet is probably going to be online (you MIGHT find them in a reptile shop, but I doubt it). I've used mulberry farms for silk and horn worms (which you may want to try as well, just be warned hornworms grow FAST). check out the site sponsors, I've only bought silks and horns from...

As the above poster said please fill out the how to ask for help, it will help to identify if there is any obvious things that need corrected. You said he was sleeping and it's 5 pm, has he been sleeping all day (or on and off throughout the day) or just now sleeping? Because my guys tend to...

I love it when I'm around family, I was working with my dad for a few months (we both work out of state, but aren't always on the same project). I would have my mom check in on my guys and give me status updates. She really loved it to, my sisters said she was showing off pics like they were...

It maybe that the screen is blocking some of the uv (if I recall correctly the finer the mesh the more uv is blocked). Also is there any branches or leaves between the bulb and "basking site" ? Another thing would be a reflector (does it have one?) If it doesn't you can use tin foil, try...

I've been super busy lately but I thought I'd update everyone, Max is almost done with the meds and showing no symptoms of RI (no more open mouth). The cipro did seem to effect his appetite, he went from eating about 6 large crickets a day to one or two most days (a few days he would seem to get...

Sounds like a good schedule, just make sure to not neglect gut loading as well. My jacksons is my avatar and also under morpheus in my albums ( tho I need to update pics) he's shedding right now. Xantholophus is just the sub-species, it's the same one that is now found in hawaii and some...

How often is some what dependent on species, for panthers and veileds most recommend a multi vitamin every two weeks (or twice a month), montane species are more sensitive to supplements so you typically would supplement less (some don't use a multi vitamin at all, just make sure gut loading is...

Cool, at first I just saw the egg and thought you were teasing. Can you really tell their sex that young, or were you using "girl" as a generic term?

Some people can get stung and it be only slightly worst then a ant bite, others it's life threatening, maybe yours was allergic? Sines they seemingly eat them in the wild I would think the bee it's self isn't toxic (ingested) but I would also guess there are less allergic chameleons in the wild...

Could be a bruise (as mentioned above) or it might be stress patterns, often dropping is a defense mechanism. Hows his grip? Did he seemingly drop on purpose or was it lack of balance/ grip ? if they are healthy they can take a fall pretty well, just watch him for any signs of injury...

Nice, are those "fired up" colors or normal? (I'm thinking he really LOVED that tree! ) either way he looks great!

Yep it's normal for them to do that every now and then, as the shop said just cleaning the eyes, if it happened to often or they keep the eye closed for a extended time I would be concerned but other wise it's like you or me blinking something out of our eye.

I'm not a big fan of pet stores with chameleons (tho this one maybe the exception?). I'd double check any care info you got there with info (post and blogs) on this site. I would think you could get her out for some supervised sun time, at 90 + you'll surly want ample water (misting) and...
