From the second set of pictures you posted, I don't think that it is an angle issue. The picture I attached is of one of my Ambilobes, I tried to find a picture from when he was younger to try to match the size of your chameleon as close as I could. I understand that these are not the in the...
Since you bought your chameleon from a pet store that you now think isn't keeping their chameleons healthy, you should really fill out the help form that was suggested. This way, if there are any other problems with how you are caring for your chameleon, which is likely if you are following the...
Sorry, but I can't recommend a different fogger because I have never used any besides the one that broke. It was nice and added a lot of humidity to the enclosure, until it broke. And that was only MY experience with the Repti Fogger. If you ask around, there might be some people that have...
I can not say for sure, but I think MBD takes more than two weeks to develop. If this is MBD, which I can not confirm, it can be treated by most vets and by maintaining a proper supplementation schedule from here on. But again, wait for for more opinions before you accept that it is...
I do believe that your chameleon is developing, or has MBD. The first picture shows the same curved shape of the elbow that is shown in the first picture you posted. But I cannot be certain, as I have no personal experience with MBD in chameleons. Hopefully some more experienced opinions will...
Do you mean a DIY humidifer setup? Or are there really some DIY foggers? I have never seen any, but would like to if there are some.
If you do buy a reptile fogger for your hoehnelii, I wouldn't recommend the ZooMed Repti Fogger. I had mine for under a year before it broke. I think it was...
I thought the front leg in the photo, at the elbow, looked more U shaped than V shaped that you normally see in chameleon elbows. But, again, it could just be the angles. I didn't want to not say anything and let a potential problem pass unnoticed.
Like I said, I am not a professional at all, I could be very wrong. Maybe some more experienced people will chime in.
Do you have any more pictures that might show a different angle of the leg?
I think your chameleon might have MBD. I am by no means a professional, and I am only saying this based on other pictures I have seen of chameleons with MBD. You definitely should see what other people say. The front right leg looks a little bendy at the knee, which looks like a sign of MBD...
Not really required. A lot of people would recommend it though. It aids in hydration of chameleons, and my chameleons love warm showers. It's not the type of shower we would take; just direct the water from the shower head onto the wall, and the water will turn into a more of a mist, which in...
I wouldn't worry about it. I bet after awhile he will calm down, and he won't be so afraid of you. Just give him some time, and keep handling to a minimum.:)
Yeah, i could see that being a problem. Is moving the chameleon to a separate room a possibility? If not, i would increase mistings, that could cool down the cage just a little.
Haha, thats funny about the Easter egg hunt! I have not had this happen to me, but i have heard about it happening because the female cannot find a good enough place to lay.
No, but they can be found there, they were introduced to the island and have multiplied.
Here is a thread about it.

I really like the Flukers Thermo-Hygrometer. It is really plain and simple, and i like the bigger display compared to some others. It also can store the maximums and minimums of the temperature and humidity, which allows you to check how consistent your temperature and humidity was throughout...
Hey
I also have a carpet chameleon. I was just wondering if you could give me some links to all those articles on them you found. I already read about all the threads on the forums about them. Thanks
I think people have had problems with the ZooMed ReptiBreeze rusting. I have also heard they are not as sturdy as the LLLReptile screen cages. I only own the LLLReptile screen cages and I have no complaints.
