and thanks =) we are spending lots of time with him!
For males, the start looking like "adults" around 4-5 months (colors and that scaley look) but my other male is around 1 1/2 old and is full grown. maybe if you got a picture up of your cham? that would help to determine a lot!
that could be a reason too. unfortunately we are getting ready to lose our 5 1/2 yr old male :( he just doesnt climb, doesn't eat, and very cranky! but I think if yours is only 3 yrs old, he shouldn't be showing those symptoms just yet! If all else fails, the vet is always the best answer!
I feed my female jackson's those superworms (mean little buggers!) and yes they can bite!! you have to be careful with those suckers. I try not to give her so many of those. Instead I try feeding her the regular size. That's really the only thing I can think of at this point! I would try holding...
same here:) just good old household bulbs do the trick =) temperature drops at night are good for healthy sleepy time :D just like JustinIgor said don't worry about lighting unless the temp drops below 55.
I too am pretty new to the cham world :rolleyes:
he might have injured his tongue at some point and could be too sore to use. could have been when he was eating something.
also I have been highly recommended to use the ReptiSun 5.0 UVB bulb and a basking light that actually emitts light. I...
also, does you cham have any problems with balance or shakiness? could possibly be signs of MBD (metabolic bone disease) that can cause chams to be unable to shoot out there tongues.
ok I read into Brad's discussion about the best general info for veiled chams (great info!) he said that the best kind of lighting is the Reptisun 5.0. I called into my local pet store and they said all they had was the Repti-Glo 5.0. I had him read the box word for word so I could compare the...
anything green I believe is good for them. I feed mine lettuce sometimes. It's a nice source of rough-age (good for the pooper) =) and has lots of good old H2O! My boyfriend's father feeds his all kinds of fruits and veggies (softened corn, apple pieces, lettuce, collard greens). And his chams...
ok well he's not quite this big! So I'm thinking he's a little younger than 4 months.. I'm starting to think around 2-3 months. He's not very bulky yet, he has long chicken arms (lol) his body length (not including his tail) is about 3-4inches. I took him to my friend who raises chams and has...
Well I purchased my first male veiled yesterday from the Midwest Reptile show and I'm very excited! Unfortunately I did have to move my female jackson's to another location (my vet friend advised to not keep them close due to parasites Jackson's have). He is roughly 4 months old, and close to 4...
Hi! I bought the same cage that you're looking at (Thanks to Julirs :)) from the same website and I love it! If you wanted to throw in a little personalized touch, one of my good friends buys these cages all the time and he took two of them, cut out one side of each, and put them together to...
I have had my female for about 4 months now. She's 9 months old and beautiful! A bit shy, but her adult colors are coming out which include bright yellow, lime green, black with yellow and/or green triangles, green with blue horizontal stripe, and camo. Also have a male, just as good looking!:D
