    Help! Veiled cham eating leaves of money tree

    I would take it out and replace it with a few pothos plants. She will grow to like those and you don't have to worry about her eating it. They are on the safe plant list and others have talked about their veileds eating them with no problem. While the money tree may not be listed as safe or...

    HELP.. Chameleon cant close his eye

    Try an ointment like terramycin. Do you have that? You can get it online if you need some. Usually this would be used to treat an eye infection but it does have a moisterizing effect to it and may be the trick. Otherwise I would try to put him in the shower and create a more humid atmosphere.

    building plans for wood shop??

    Find a way to build a tower that houses all the equipment. For example lights on top built into a box so you can't see the lights, drainage at the bottom with a drawer and a feeder drawer with built in heat and fans. Run all the electrical from the back with dimmers and timers. This is what I am...

    How friendly is YOUR chameleon?

    My guy is awesome to look at but not to touch. He goes from jerk to jerkoff to a hole when you try to touch him. He will eat from my hand but if it is time to do his weekly check up he will run like I am going to take him out and feed him to something bigger. He knows exactly which branch does...

    Oh crap...

    Well put Jessica!!! Charma I know you have a hard time with this teasing and for good reason. Remember parents are forever and if your peers don't like you because of the teasing you go through they are probably not true friends. There will come a time and hopefully not for a long time to come...

    True I agree with the sperm plug comment. I'm trying to stay hopeful that it's not a prolapse. The sugar thing is only necessary if the prolapse stays out. Good luck!

    Did he give you the cream? What are you using? Also it was two separate pieces that came out? All red? It's either sperm plugs or a prolapse from what I can tell. Either I read that you should mix warm water and sugar together and soak his vent in there. If it is a prolapse then this should help...

    Still gaping??

    I would second that he is still recovering. When we have RI it takes weeks to get rid of it completely. Just keep an eye on it. Also pay attention to the temps.

    Oh crap...

    haha. I used to flinch when she would put her arms around me on purpose. We got a ton of weird looks from that. Or when I was on crutches and had a broken leg, people would ask me what happened and I would tell them an elaborate story about my mom being upset with me because I spilt some water...

    Oh crap...

    Good luck with tonight. I hope it goes well for you. Don't be embarassed by your parents. Mine used to do it all the time and I decided that I could sit there and hate it or play along. Playing along made it much less embarassing and eventually built a better relationship with them. Tell us how...

    something sticking out vent

    From what I read today this could be because of parasite, worms or some kind of bacterial infection. The vet messeger place (link up a couple posts) reccomends that you get to the vet and have a check up. I would think at the very least you would want to do a fecal and maybe a blood test.

    I just went to this website which is kind of like a vet chat line. They have a good solution for you to try but they do stress that a visit to the vet sooner rather than later would be in your best interes. http://www.justanswer.com/pet/0gg94-something-stuck-veiled-chameleon-s-vent.html A...

    something sticking out vent

    That looks like blood to me. Has he been pooing regularly (maybe he was passing something that caused tearing)? That might be a sign of something that is partially prolapsing or a tear which leads to an open sore in a dirty area. It would not hurt to go to the vet just for a check up and bring...
