hi everyone! It’s been a minute since I’ve posted in this forum! All of you are the best chameleon people so I wanted to run some things by this group of amazing people to see if there is anything going on. Herbie is my panther chameleon that I’ve had for almost 2 years and I feel like a...

Do you tell the hotels about your pet? Or do you map out pet friendly hotels along the way?

How long was your trip? I'm thinking our trip would be a week or so.

I also want to add that Herbie is possibly in the beginning stages of renal failure (sorry should have mentioned why I was this nervous to travel with him), so he's not really in the best conditions for something stressful

Hi everyone! My husband got a super sudden job promotion across the country. I am in Atlanta with my panther chameleon and we would be moving to New York. I am sort of at a weird spot because 1) is it too stressful of a move to take my chameleon with me and 2) is NY even really the right place...

Ah okay I’ve been giving him .10 mL so a very small dose not 10 mL

That’s honestly why im a bit concerned too. And yes I’m like 99% sure nothing has passed.

Oh jeez thanks you guys! The vet told me to give this if he’s constipated so I’ve been sometimes giving it to him if he doesn’t go for a while. Poor thing I hope he’s alright 😭 I will increase his dripper and fogger tonight. He’s been eating silkworms

*to not two

Hey everyone! I fed Herbie a hawk moth and it was obviously a little big but he ate it and liked it! But now I’m afraid that he’s a little constipated. I’ve given him lactulose 10 ml once per day for the past 3 days and still nothing. It’s been almost 2 weeks. I called the vet and they are...

Hi everyone!! Just want to update! I took Herbie to UGA and met with Dr. Divers and his team. They were absolutely amazing! They did an exam and a full CBC and saw what they believe may be the beginning signs of renal failure. They want to do a CT and ultrasound ASAP but I just don’t have the...

I was feeding my chameleon a hornworm sort of close to his nap time he was getting tucked in but we just got a huge shipment of hornworms so I was excited to get him one. He mistook my thumb for a worm and I’m afraid it may have hurt him? He seems okay and he sort of reeled in and was able to...

Just sent him an email, he is out of office until July 5th but hopefully when he returns I will hear back from him! Thanks so much, I’m so stressed about this 😭

Just caught Herbie sleeping and he appears to be getting worse. I’m willing to drive somewhere to someone that actually knows chameleons. I’m in GA if anyone has any recommendations for an exotic vet chameleon specialist?

This makes me feel a bit better 🤣🤣

Just out of curiosity, when does everyone’s chams wake up and go to sleep? I know some of you have been following Herbie’s health journey and his sleeping schedule has changed a bunch. We did move into a new apartment that gets a ton of sunlight but he seems to be waking up super early and...

we set up our mist king but it just seems like something is wrong here like it’s too strong, anyone know what’s going on? It’s making noise and the mist is fine but it’s like the tubing is going to pop off or something

Soooooooo Herbie has been a bit constipated so his poops have not been flowing like they used to and I haven’t been able to get another good sample to take to the vet. Currently waiting on the next poop but he seems to be pooping once per week. He really scared me today though because I caught...

Okay! So maybe take in another fecal in the next 2 weeks?

No worries! I don’t think I’ve answered that before, but he is not going into his sleeping area to sleep. It will be places like his basking spot or this other spot he has that he likes to try and hunt for isopods (there are none there anymore since it’s not a bioactive anymore but he got lucky...
