Hi! A friend of mine got me three pygmy leaf chameleons for my birthday and they are eating like little horses but I was supplementing my veiled and my panther today and realized I had no idea how to dust fruit flies or what to gut load them with. I am going to get some 1/8 inch crickets but...
I am finally going to try to switch my 10 month old panther and 4 month old veiled to roaches - I just hate the cricket stink with all my being (and I clean the little bastards every three or four days)
Is there anything I should know about switching them? Is there a way to make the new bugs...
Preferably more the Fort Worth/Arlington side . . .
I'm not in need of one now but I have terribly bad luck with exotic animal vets (I have pet rats too, which are exotics for some reason) so I thought I'd ask BEFORE I'm panicing because I have a sick cham . . .
I know about the herp vet...
How do you guys go about introducing new foods to your chameleons?
Chupacabra was raised on crickets but he ADORES hornworms, so I've ordered him some silk worms, butter worms, and wax worms (because the fewer crickets I can keep in the house the happier I am) . . .
The silk worms I think...
I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the best forum, but as you guys all predicted I've become addicted to the chameleon - even though my panther Chupacabra spends most of his time glaring at me . . . actually, we made a breakthrough in chameleon/human interaction with hand feeding hornworms...
I've got a four month old male panther and he's still fine in his small reptibreeze (which is 18x18x24 I think) but I was wondering at what size I should get him a bigger cage . . .
If possible I'd like to skip right to a large reptibreeze to save money but if it would hurt him at all I'll...
I just got my baby panther from Kamerflage chameleons today - he is a cutie!
I think he's going to be a pistol too - I'd been reading that I should be very careful to let him come out of his shipping container on his own and not stress him - well, he walked right out and into his cage and...
Is it possible for a senegal to have an enclosure that is too big? I have one that I rescued from a shelter after he was taken from a hoarder and I got him a big enclosure - a large reptibreeze and filled it with umbrella plants just thinking he would really enjoy the space but he spends most...
Thanks for the replies on my other post about how big of a cage to get a panther hatchling . . .
I was trying to decide the best place to put my hatchling (when I get him) and I was thinking of getting a long coffee table sort of thing and just putting both cages on that - that way everyone's...
I got my first chameleon about six months ago and now I want to buy a second, but I want to get a baby - my question is probably simple for a experienced chameleon person - but should I get a smaller cage for a hatchling with the plan to upgrade as he gets bigger or should I buy a cage with his...
Ok - I've got my poor little rescue chameleon's new cage set up - it actually took her a few hours to venture from the fake plants onto the real ones, but she's set up his new sleeping area in a real plant so I guess she likes it . . . she also was fairly calm when I moved him into his new cage...
Hi! I've always sort of wanted a chameleon and recently had the chance to receive a rescue flap neck from an animal protection group that seized him from a hoarder who had over 600 animals . . . I just brought him home today . . .
I've had snakes and basic lizards (anoles, skinks, etc . . .)...
