Are you likely to find out exactly what killed your Chameleon?
If so, I'd wait until you find out before housing any Chameleon inside it just to be safe.
When my first Cham died from Coccidia I used Peroxide 40vol 12% to cleanse the cage before putting my new one in.
My Veiled has passed only urate before a couple of times. He always poo's afterwards though so probably nothing to be concerned about if its the only time its happened.
You need to keep your Cham interested by frequently rotating or offering a variety of feeders.
If you are going through a strike then just starve the Cham for a few days and then offer crickets. If no luck, just go another day and repeat. Eventually they will give in. I will warn you though -...
Yes I have been surprised about the colour of the recent urates - I am convinced the recent introduction of silkworms in his diet has helped significantly with drydration. They seem to contain a lot of moisture - and he has never been a great drinker.
Hi all...
Over the past few months my 1yr old male panther has been defecating less frequently. At times he can go a week or before he takes a dump. When he does take a dump he tends to do it when he comes out of his cage (triggered by nerves) - never in his cage. This is a slight concern -...
You made the right choice. I had to make a similar choice with an ill baby and we had to put him down. It's a horrible choice but you have to put the animal first, and you did. Well done :-)
It was meant to be mate. Mistake on their part somehow.
I'm really disappointed but dont want to say too much about it as they are probably normally really good and I was just unlucky.
Just feel sorry for the little fella as he will be going back in a box for another overnight courier:(...
I will be getting something else but not sure what yet. Might have an empty viv for a few weeks or maybe months depending on what i do. It's a viv I just bought and setup for this guy too. Really disappointed.
I got sent an Ambilobe cross
My latest addition is on his way and is due any time. He is a 3.5month old male Ankify x Ambanja. His sire being the Ankify.
He will be called Cookie, which is short for Cookie Monster... He will soon be joining his brothers Bert and Ernie!
Pictures to follow...
Its difficult to tell exactly what it is from the pictures, but I am pretty sure thats just bits of sperm that pass from his vent when he takes a dump. If it is that then its normal.
