I don't know about quantity...but they are very nutritious. They are loaded with calcium. They are super wiggly too, which can be good. I'd offer them separately from the meal worms. I suspect the meal worms might view the phoenix worms as food. Try giving her the equivalent of a teaspoon of...

I encourage you to make that vet appointment. Your enclosure is probably too small for a veiled adult. Most keep them in cages at least 4 feet talll. It sounds like your enclosure is not really well established for a chameleon. I would recommend a bigger enclosure and some live plants. Why...

Phoenix worms are great, much better than meal worms from a nutritional standpoint. I suspect most people would tell you to try to introduce a feeder that is easily gutloaded, like a Dubia Roach. Silk worms are also very good "worm" feeders. They do take some maintenance but you might find it...

Glad you're back. I bet once you get all the anesthesia out of your system, things will get back to normal. They have to put you really far down to do joint replacement and it can take a week for everything to completely wake up again.

I think you take that option. I suspect you are right that the baby will not be fixed, but that's also true if you keep it. This way, he has a small chance of being restored to health and you getting to buy him back. But the more likely scenario is that you get a refund to use for something...

As they approach full size they are less likely to do that amazing full body blow off. Things just sort of stick. As long as a limb (or tail) is not circled by a bit of unshed skin, it's not a problem. It will probably come of in the next shed.

Have you made any changes recently? Is he new? I've had a couple of chameleons do this their first night in a new cage.

lanaya, normally you would attach pictures using the POST REPLY button (not the handy quick reply box at the box at the bottom of the thread). It appears you have already attached the pictures, maybe to another thread? To post them again here you need to go to your USER CP, find the...

YAY! Have a wonderful time. I bet you come home with some of the best pictures ever!

I'm going to second sandra's suggestion you post the x-rays. They belong to you! In this day and age they are probably electronic files so they should be able to provide them and you should be able to attach them. Not only are there multiple vets experienced with chameleons on this board, but...

Laurie! I'm so jealous! I miss knees that actually work! I'm sure this is going to make your life so much better! Just make sure to follow the doctor's orders on recovery! It can be tempting to try to do too much too soon because it feels so much better than it did before the surgery. Take...

I would try her in the laying bin. You should read Kinyongia's blog post on keeping females. Cutting back on food and heat can help reduce the frequency and size of egg clutches. http://raisingkittytheveiledchameleon.blogspot.com/2007/12/keeping-female-veiled.html

Probably something like that....apparently I should have no interests but her and things she finds interesting. She's a teenager, they are nothing if not "hard core".

My daughter hates them, refuses to discuss them, refuses to let me talk about them in her presence.

Jann, do you know the communication options in Madagascar? Would you be able to communicate with your team while away? Skype? If so, that might make the situation better for you.

That's wonderful! I'm so glad for you and your multi-species family.

Happy Birthday!

I'm so very sorry. Make the most of the time you have. I hope it's longer than you expect. **edited to add** Some another site you might investigate: http://www.grantedwish.org/
