Thanks for the encouragement!! This afternoon I placed him and his tub in the sun and he perked right up. I was able to enjoy watching him eat 5 flies! I hope that means he's been helping himself to a few while I've not been looking. The natural sun session lasted about 20 mins, after which...

Humidity up to 80%, misting very often not letting it dry between misting, is this ok?

Thanks for all the advice folks. Ive moved uvb further away (waiting on 2.0) and spot has been off since I put him in his emergency enclosure. I have managed to lower temps to 23oC during the day and 19oC at night using frozen bottles of water placed on the outside of the cage... but Mario is...

Mario, looking not too happy His original enclosure, minus UV tube (which is with Mario in new temporary enclosure) Setup for new, temporary enclosure. I´m hoping I´ll be able to better monitor his health this way. The green box on top is a sonic humidifier which turns on for 15 minutes...

Great pictures! Thanks for sharing! :)

Cool!! Thanks for the speedy reply you guys. Alright, off I go to do my research. THANKS!! :)

Hi all, I just inhereted this little guy from a friend who got it at a pet shop, and who has no idea of the species. Any thought on what species he might be? All my friend was told is that this is a mountain chameleon... I´m thinking maybe Rudis? Anyway, I´m sure it´ll be more obvious as the...

Heya folks its been a while so I thought I'd share some more Luigi shots They grow up so fast

Chulocham great pics, it does indeed look like a spermplug (so glad!:)). Don´t look if you´re squeemish, but this is what prolapse looks like https://www.chameleonforums.com/prolapse-56655/ As for feeding chams superworms I know that plenty of people do it and their chams are fine. But after...

Heya don´t want to alarm you but what are you feeding your cham? I didn´t know any better and when my first cham discovered superworms he stopped taking all other foods (crickets, grasshoppers etc) and would feed solely on superworms. After switching to the superworm diest, eventually I also...

I know its a little late but you asked about how i feed my guy his fruit flies: I used a feeder cup to give Luigi his flies. The feeder was simply an empty yoghurt container which had a long wooden skewer (pointy side down) poked through the center. I dusted the flies in a box, then gently...

Hi, just a couple of things you might want to try regarding feeding. My little panther chameleon went off crickets for a month or so. It was very frustrating. Luckily he still went crazy for fruit flies so i kept him going on those (he had to eat LOADS of them). I also fed him the occassional...

Heya guys, thought id share some pics of how Luigi is coming along. At 4 or so months he´s doing great and starting to show his future colours. :) Thanks again to all those that gave me advice on how to take care of him when i just got him, he weighed 2.4 grams and was sickly...

Just a few updates on Luigi: I took him to the vets a couple of weeks ago to check that he was all good and his fecal analysis showed that he was loaded with parasites (flagellates). Doc gave him his worming treatment and then i had to give him the remaining doses over the next 4 days. The...

Thanks for the advice Tay! The crickets he is eating were originally micro, but they are also growing (must be all that great veggie and fruit mix i give them). They are much larger than pinheads, they range in size but most are about a quarter of the size of an adult cricket so i think 3 or...

Doing great! 1 week down and Luigi is doing great and really taking to his new surroundings. It might be my imagination, but he seems to be getting bigger everyday. Thanks again for all the great help. I´m looking forward to him growing up. I´ll post pics of him every now and again on the...

My first chameleon

Update: The Boy was active and moving around today and starting to display lighter, I´m not so stressed out, colours. He ate three crickets today and drank plenty of water after misting. Hopefully i can look after the little guy well enough for him to grow up nice and strong. I have sent a...
