So our girl Kali has had a laying bin in her cage since she was 6 months. She is not showing gravid colors and has not been mated. She will sometimes explore the bottom of her cage but no restlessness or constant seeking. She is currently just over 10 months old. I've noticed she looks a plump...
Today I noticed that all 3 of our chams (1 male; 10 months, 1 female 10 months, 1 male 21 months) are in some stage of shedding.
Is it a coincidence that they are all shedding at the same time, or is it something environmental or husbandry related that is causing them to have a similar...
I've tried to make a habit of doing frequent weight checks. Especially with our younger male who seems to have a delicate immune system compared to our others and has been having health issues on and off.
Amy how they weighed in at 96 grams for Shiva at 10 months (I'm thinking and hoping for...
I think you hit the nail on the head with the lost interest being the motivation behind many rehomings. And as another poster mentioned, craigslist is often the worst offender, for other pets as well. However, on a positive note, I've had good experiences with craigslist chams. One being our...
I by no means meant this to be derisive. I take pride in caring for my husband and making sure he's happy!

I agree that I spend an inordinant time watching them. I'm always slightly paranoid that there is some underlying health issue that i'm missing. This was probably exacerbated by Shiva having some health issues for the first couple months we had him.
It is enjoyable to just watch them be them...
Hi all,
Wad thinking tonight about how many times I see chameleon's listed for sale or a new home with the reason of "don't have time to take care of it anymore".
This baffles me because I work 10-12 hour days, have a home, a dog and a husband to care for and still find plenty of time to care...
Thank you. Kaiju is "strange creature" in Japanese. In popular culture they are a type of monster. The most recent Godzilla movie and a movie called Pacific Rim used the term liberally. Godzilla ' s personality in this most recent film had a quiet stoicism while still being fearsome, which...
Thanks, Henry. We certainly will. You've made it easy for us with how well you've taken care of him for his first year and a half. You'll be getting updates for as long as you want them!
Repdog; It did work out well. Like to avoid stress of shipping when ever possible.
Motherlode Chameleon: thanks! my husband thought of it, but it suits his personality, especially from the most recent movie.
zsazsa85: thank you!
jannb: thanks, Jann. We think so too.
