I think he is talking about in the 3rd pic, I can see how he would think it's bent but I agree it's most likely the way he is holding his head + camera angle.

On hornworms I'd get small ones (they grow fast as you know) most the time some grow dater than others, as they near the size you want feed off the largest ones then start rotating them in the icebox (I think you can keep them in 1 day then out for 2, tho I may have that backwards) the warmer...

he's big bold and beautiful!

I'm not sure I'd use to much lettuce or cucumber as they are mostly water, kale is good, but don't over do it either because it has sorta high Oxalates (which can block some of the absorption of calcium) but it small amounts all thoses are good. some good ones are greens (collard and...

my panther is very outgoing and will come to me when ever I'm near, my jacksons is shy and I don't handle him except for cage cleanings (tho I haven't had him long). point being I think you just have to listen to the lizard (so to speak), go slow and don't push him to do anything he doesn't...

gout is acid crystals that build up in the joins which cuts up the cartilage causing pain and inflamtion, people can get it to (from my understanding due to poor diet as well). some people on here have had chameleons with gout and from what I hear it is very bad (makes in hard for them to...

I wouldn't do the fish/chicken because I've heard to much animal protiens might be the cause of gout. are you sure it's a issue with them getting stuck in his throat? I know my guy kind of goes back and forth on what he wants to eat. for a while he'll like crickets, then worms, then he might...

I agree, I think it has to do with the lizard as well as showing them your not a threat. when I was catching alones as a kid a few would be half friendly off the bat while others would try to bite a finger off (even tho there was no chance)

I have mine in a separate room but I too was worried about opening the door, or that he might squeeze under (there's about a inch gap) so I put a slick piece of paneling (about a foot and a half) across the door and taped it in place(I just leave the door open). Its to slick and to high for him...

I just got a jacksonii xanth. from Lancecham (I had purchased my panther from him about 4 months befor). I'm very happy with both. I also agree with cain those jacksonii jacksonii are very nice looking, abit more pricey but also less commonly found CB. I'd definitely buy from a breeder on...

she is looking good, just make sure to keep up with taking good care of her (and the bugs you feed her). I'm proud of you for listening to the advice so many have given and making the changes needed for the health of your chameleon, keep learning and keep loving that little one (and she'll be...

your best clue is the color of the urates, white is good, yellow is some what dehyrated and orange is very dehyrated. I don't think the "wettness" of the poop is a very good indicator or hyration (tho runny, or overly dry "fresh" poop may indicate other issues). for one thing if you don't...

you should check out the classifieds on these forums, the are a number of great breaders on these forums (I'd look for some one that has been a member here for a while with a good reputaion), chances are you will get a healther animal at the same (or less) cost. about saving the chameleon...

like others have stated you most likelydo need all 3 (with him indoors), make sure and look up how offten you should give him/her based on the species (montanes are more sensitive to over supplemention so you have to be carefull). also make sure and gut load your feeders on the right kind of...

they are cute and very cool, such charactor in there faces! these are live bearers correct?

I agree with others here I think hand feeding helps build trust (plus it's a way cool interaction you can have with your cham that isn't to stressful for him/her), I don't think they would forget how to hunt, but if your worried about it (or just want to make sure he/she's getting some exercise)...

Well I'm not sure about love bugs I know hardly nothing eats them so I'm guessing there's a reason, that's another I wouldn't risk. As for winged insects I've never hear that, in fact being a tree dwelling lizard it's fairly safe to assume a larger percentage of what they eat in the wild is...

Well first make sure the insect is safe (not poisonous), I know fireflies are deadly to bearded dragons so unless you have other info I would assume they might be for chameleons as well (best to err on the side off caution), I'm not sure about june bugs but they have a pretty hard exoskeleton...

Nice looking boy you got there, what flavor is he (local I mean )?
