I have taken Camo to the vet already instead of posting in here to find out what wrong. But now I could use some encouragement. The vet is reputable so that's a plus. He became extremely dehydrated in a matter of days, became completely lethargic and sleeping. I upped his misting and put extra...

I'm not sure where to post this, I'm sure a mod can fix it for me. Some of you have already seen the picture I posted of the chameleon at Petco. I called corporate and filed a formal complaint today because both of their male panthers are in desperate need of veterinary care. I've already...

Camo is my first chameleon and even though I have read up on husbandry, care, and insect breeding, I know nothing about locale and traits. If you saw this chameleon at a reptile show, what would you label him? Currently 6 months and 8 days.

Camo has his first vet visit on Thursday and I was wondering what to expect? I've talked with 7 different vets that specialize in exotics with extensive knowledge on chameleons, and I think I found the right one. It's a well check visit so that I can get to know him and so he can meet Camo...

How do you keep track of the things your pets do? Usually I don't need a full chart for my little friends, but Camo is different and growing at a crazy rate. I like to keep track of when he eats, poops, and needs his vitamins lol. Shedding is on my board but goes into a separate book where...

Why do pet shops sell animals to complete and utter idiots?! And why do the employees of said pet shops have NO IDEA WHAT THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT?!?! I was on Craigslist looking for new enclosures and I found some listings that were highly concerning. All reptile sales (adoptions), and all from...

So Camo has been blinking funny the past couple days and I figured he might just have something in it. Not puffy, not swollen, not staying closed. It's just a weird slow blink. I went to CVS and searched for JUST SALINE. (First difficult task.) I found saline for babies in the form of a nose...

Just started a new one today. Curious as to what everyone has. :-) This is going to cover-up a couple different ones.

So Camo usually NEVER poops in his viv, it's been weeks since the last. He seems to prefer mine or my boyfriend's hand/arm/shirt/shoulder. :rolleyes: Today I decided to weigh him, he started his "poop hover" and used his weighing cup as a toilet! *lol* I thought I would share because it made...

Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Furcifer Pardalis, male, 5 months on Friday. I have had him for 2 months. Handling - Once a day. He's usually waiting for me to take him out, he prefers to be hand fed and usually uses the bathroom when he's being held. Feeding - He eats crickets and dubias...

So I found this little gem at a hardware store going out of business for $3!! I'm thinking I could make an amazing enclosure for Camo. I need all the tips and tricks you can provide for me. I am removing the diagonal side wood, the middle top piece and the 2 middle shelving pieces. Other than...

Camo likes to climb all over my face. No idea why, but he reaches his little arms out and isn't happy until I get right in his face and he's able to grab onto my nose. He proceeds to climb up to my forehead and usually stays there... My little weirdo.

My boyfriend came out here for a little getaway, and happened upon this little pet shop off of highway 50. I was quite impressed with their customer service and upkeep of all the animals they have there. They're stocked with a decent amount of reptile needs and know enough about the different...

Okay, so not really an emergency, but I was curious if anyone else finds themselves looking at one forum section more than another. For me, it's the Health Forums... Being a new cham mom this is the WORST most possible place for me to venture. Seeing pictures, reading things that can go wrong...

I have a ton. I can't tell you how many I started with but I know I have a lot more. They are definitely having babies. My question is this though, every once in awhile there's a blob of weird black sludge on the bottom of there tub, is this something they do after they've given birth? I've...

Anyone attending this weekend? July 20th and 21st

First off I would like to thank ReptiGeek and cswan19 for this awesome idea! On to the reason why you're here :D My first chameleon Camo, Ambilobe. 3 months old today. Day 1 Just hanging out in his house, up to no good it looks like. I took the picture because he looks like he's...

I love how every time I look inside Camo's enclosure he's a completely different chammie. I know he changes with his mood, but I was curious about everyone else. What different colors/shades does your baby change depending on his or her mood? Here's Camo in his most used skin. Relaxed...

Nothing wrong here, just had a few questions on poo. I've tried to search and the only things I find are horrible pictures throughout the entire Health section on things that can go wrong with your little cham. Now I'm making myself paranoid. :eek: I have a three month old panther. How...

Here's the situation, I am in the process of setting up for a panther cham. I have owned reptiles before but never a chameleon. I have done a ton of research for the past 6 months before even going through the process of picking one out. I am extremely paranoid and worried that I won't make a...
