My litttle guy (girl) doesnt eat right away. I have never actualy seem him (her) eat a cricket. He (she) did eat a few mealworms and even a waxworm, all from my hand (not in the same feeding session). The only evidence I have that the cham eats crickets is that there is always fewer of them...

Im just wondering. I have a 6 month old Panter Ambilobe, that I am still holding out for my vet to say its a boy, but a few of the smart people on this forum say its a girl. The breeder sais I have a boy too. If it turns out that I have a girl afterall (I'ill know after feb 5), then I...

Now I have TWO reasons... 1) to find out if he is really a girl. 2) to verify health and discover any unknown problems early. (S)he eats good and is really climbing around nice, so I have no worries. I wanted a boy:confused:

How would I know... ... for sure if zippy is a girl? I have a vet appointment on 5/5/2010, but is there an obveyous sign I can see now? I was counting my blessing that I had a boy because of the whole egg laying P.I.T.A that some others have gone through on this site. The ficus IS...

I took these after I installed his dripper. Someone had posted the idea of poking a small hole in a hamster watering bottle. I did that, but I poked too big a hole and the water just ran out in couple minutes. I got a small 'Swedgelock' needle valve that I installed in line to control the...

well ??? Well?? Zippy has left a turd yesterday. I guess Ill let you know when the next one arrives.

How often... ... does a six month old Ambilobe Panther Chameleon poop? Assuming that all husbandry conditions are perfectly met, and the chameleon is healthy.

... to Chameleon husbandry? First, it was the color changing (he is young still, but he does change a little). This is more of an anticipated benifit really. Second, it was the way they move, so careful and cautious. They have amazing dextarity and flexability. I was surprised at...

Extreme conditions of any kind are a hazard to any creature. If a person has a cham and they live in a ruckus house with kids and dogs and a lot of things going on, and they handle the chameleon every day with the kids, that is a bad situation. They should get a cat, and look at movies of...

I see a fair amount of photos and video with people handling thier chams. Its part of what attracted me to begin with. Dont get me wrong. These are not cuddly little kittens we can just play with and make tea. They are sensative, nearly defenceless creatures that we have moved from their...

Greens are OK Right??? The bugs eat the greens, and the cham eats the bugs. She actualy saves a step. Dont chams also eat flowers???

chameleon anatomy. I am hoping to find a vet level book. There are care and feeding guides aplenty, and I have access to that kind of basic data here on this site also. I am looking for a text book about chameleons. I want to look at anatomy, illness, the science of how they change...

Im no expert She looks great to me. Zippy is kind of a brick red color, but he is only a little older than six months old. They get more color as they mature. Time and good care will tell. There is so much information on this website. Read it all, study it and do it.

...and the pendulum swings back. Well, not completely. It hurts to think about. All of the injustice in this world, children being abused, earthquake victims, famine, and animal cruelty. There is so much that it becomes overwhelming. Its much easier to slice all of this strife into...

Im having the same thing... ... going on with my six month old panther. He likes mealworms, but I dont think he is eating very many (if any) crickets. My girlfriend has given him some more mealworms, and I have asked her to stop. I gave him five just after I brought them home. Its so...

Another idea, since you liked the first one so much... Another members female Vailed layed some eggs for the first time and posted wondering what to do with the eggs. I guess they might have some sentimental value. I suggested a Chameleon omelett.

I never really wanted to Kiss my cham... ... maybe if he was on a stick on a hot summer day, like a green and red pop-sicle, I might just lick him.

Zippy likes mealworms better than crickets Is it bad to give him mealworms, or are they kinda like candy for him. He nearly turns his nose at crickets now. He ate 5 mealworms today, but not a single cricket that I noticed. The kid at the petstore says that superworms are (or can be)...

Thanks. I never even turned it on.

Black light tubes?? What kinds of rays do Black light tubes put out? Would those rays be harmful to a cham? I have a flourescent black light tube in Zippies room about 2 feet to the side of his cage. I thought I might sneak in and look in on him at night. There are incandescent...
