    Hemipenes....

    hi all, so, this morning I sprayed my boy, Alfie's, vivarium, and he pushed out his hemipenes. So I shouldn't worry initially, but wait and see? They have gone back a bit. I was told if it didn't retract in a few minutes to soak him in sugar water. However he hates being handled and gets...

    UVB strength and position help please?

    Well I guess it's a sad fact that some people put money before welfare of animals. Sadly learnt this too late for my little Freya. Stupid when you consider how much the cost of the viv set up was. It's not like I was trying to save money, I was going on his recommendation. It was never about...

    UVB strength and position help please?

    Well hello anyway. I've bred (purely hobbiest level) corn snakes and would like to try with panthers at some stage but won't get another female til I'm sure of my set ups.

    UVB strength and position help please?

    Hi Andre and Davecameos (wayhey someone else see U.K.) Thanks for above posts. Yes retrospectively I think the shop prepared supplement may have contributed to the new problem, maybe the light too far away, not sure but I'll certainly ensure zero room for error in future. My vet recommends...

    UVB strength and position help please?

    Well hello Jillian, Nick here. I bought my male cham from a different pet shop - much more trustworthy. In fact he was one of the first people that told me (from pics) that Freya was female rather than male. I'd love to meet up with a UK breeder for advice and check their set ups.

    UVB strength and position help please?

    No, trust me when I say I'm at Homer Simpson's level of "where's the "any" key?" Ok so I've just read lighting for chameleons 1 and 2. Twice. Thank you that was what I was looking for, and sadly or happily it showed me that I was pretty much doing the right thing so it looks like the vet might...

    UVB strength and position help please?

    UVB µW/cm²/strength questions and positioning: hi all, I've lost my little darling female panther chameleon, Freya, aged 10 months. After a few days intensive care at the vet's, the vet recommended putting her to sleep. She had MBD and was egg bound with her first infertile clutch. Now, yeah...

    Which Light Setup Should I Use?

    µW/cm² and strength questions: hi all, sorry to jump in here, but this seems to be the most recent threat. I've just lost my little darling ultra friendly Freya, aged 10 months. After a few days intensive care at the vet's, the vet recommended putting her to sleep. She had MBD and was egg...

    Chameleon Poop 101

    Agreeing care wise with melbe68, first few days can be stressful. I think us Brits have a more colourful array of "poop talk" :)

    Chameleon Poop 101

    Worms are pretty juicy, if it stays more fluid and he seems poorly, worry then, but alternate between dusted crickets and worms for variety.

    Hello from London, England.

    To be honest I think quickest is the best way. But I'm "taming" Alfred Lucifer but by bit, he still does all the puffing up and changes colour to yellow and red patches (still not mature enough for full colour) but I spend 5 or 10 minutes a day with him in my hands. Let him walk up your hands...

    Hello from London, England.

    He's fine. But made a rookie mistake yesterday. Was cleaning out Freya's viv yesterday afternoon and left the door open, half hour tops. Not even that. Went back in and she was gone. I'm on the 2nd floor and have a balcony with loads of plants but she'd have had to climb across the chest of...

    Hello from London, England.

    If only it were mine, sadly at the tender age of 48, life events and dodgy health conspired against me for getting on the property ladder. So it's just me and the chams, Freya and Alfie (aka Lucifer) and Bathsheba my female royal Python. I'm also an indoor/balcony gardener, hence my place having...
