i think the rubbing hard against the screen is a good thing. keep in mind how long it takes for chams to showing prgressing in healing etc., their metabolism is very slow. i think cyrus is very lucky, you seem to be doing all you can for him, i would keep up the showers and maybe 1 of the eye...

why not just let him eat normally? if you provide him with good foods (healthy/gutloaded insects) he will put on the weight he needs naturally. drew

chameleons can stop eating for a few days but each situation is different, i have some very good eaters so i don't think twice if they do not eat for a few days. try giving him a shower for the possible dehydration, bath tub with plants and or trees, warm shower, close door (keep him out of the...

wow, he looks content in the picture what a story, your concern and work seems to have paid off, good job. drew

well if you only have 2 females, i would say they are duds, after laying they use so much energy she is probably dehydrated, soak her in a shallow tupperware with warm water, 85 degrees. sometimes it take 5 minutes of dripping water for their reaction to act and want to drink. wax worms are...

after looking at the second picture he looks dehydrated, his eye should look like a ball or marble on each side of his head. it is not the best angle.

can't get a humidity gauge?? no pet shops, online ordering? you got the chameleon, it does not sound good for a chameleon to not open his eyes, the pictures were not very good. i would be very concerned, what about going to a vet? drew

heika becareful with the liquids, i tried the same thing with a few day old and i think i drowned it with a drop of ensure. it is so easy to forget how tiny these guys are, we see them small and then they grow but then when we see a baby we can't believe how tiny. i find tiny silky's are...

there was another thread a few weeks ago about this, i also witnessed a 2 1/2 year old male jackson vomit, he was gapping, pointing his head downward, gapping, hanging from his back feet (i thought he was dying) he vomited got back on the vine, gapped and adjusted alittle and walked away. he...

i would find that vet and if there is any time before you go soak him in a luke warm water, he will absorb water thru his skin but i think it may be something else? MBD maybe? dehydration could do this to him but why the dehydration? i read all the other replies but you might be missing...

where are the problem locations? my jacksons will shed their body quickly but around the head and horns it tends to take longer, a few days at least drew

how large is he? maybe his growth is slowing? maybe he wants variety? have you tried hornworms, silk worms, butter worms? my adult male veiled won't eat crickets at all!!! he will eat super worms, hornworms and silkies but willnot eat crickets anymore, i don't know why i offer them to him drew

my male veiled who is about 17 months old does the same thng all night his eyes bulge out 2x what they normally are, he also gets very thin at night he seems to inhale and hold it? i don't know but he is healthy and normal. he does it every nite. drew

that's great news and glad to hear the female is doing better but since the first reply the male has not been mentioned? did he get a screened enclosure too? drew

about 3 weeks ago my male jackson 'Burt' was dry heaving, then he hung from his back feet. he thru up solids and liquids. then he got back on his branch and got back to normal. it freaked me out, i though he was dying. i check the solids he thru up and there was roach wingsor cricket wings...

i hatched mantids last spring and yes my cham's loved them, they grow pretty quickly. mine were not incaptivity i let them live on my terris. drew

do you guys use pillbugs? can i tell you my chameleon's love them. i also am entering into my 2nd generation of slugs, most of my cham's love them even though they cannot catch them with their tongue, that slimy body, they have to bite them off the branches. i started a land snail colony...

stuey understand one thing, cham's take a very long time to recover, it is not like me or you who show signs daily. if you cannot get him to open his mouth, get a syringe with no needle, you can make your own sauce or buy baby food, put his supplements in the sauce and pry his lips with the...

if needed you can use me s a last resort because the pet shop thing should not be an option!! i would rather if someone closer can help you, i live in new york city. i have cages and i have 7 jackson's, 2 veiled's and 1 panther. drew

as far as the lighting i use the reptisun 10.0 supposed to be stronger than the 5.0 (or reach further) i never used the MVbulbs and have heard both sides to the story but think i would rather not deal with them. as far as the calcuim to phos. ratio and the D3, from what i understand chams...
