I have currently an 18x18x36 in cage from my old veild that passed away, Im wondering how long I can keep a panther baby (male) in that size cage until it needs the larger 24x24x48? If its a year or so then I will have time to find a proper sized table/cabinet (havent had ANY luck with something...
So with my first cham I bought a shower curtain to cover the 3 sides of my cage to keep the spray off my walls and furniture, but it made it complicated to drain with my drainage tray. How do others deal with the spray problem? Also think that the curtain helped with the death of my boy because...
I know exactly how you are feeling my veiled just died Thursday, I rushed him to my vet which happened to be an emergency hospital as well but my guy didnt pull through =( So sorry for your loss, it gets a little easier every day, I promise you that, but the pain doesnt really go away.
you shouldnt use a ficus with veileds. They are known to munch on their plants and ficus's are toxic to them, not only that but when the branches break the sap in them irritate chameleon skin and is a ***** to get off. Make sure you have 2 thermometers and LOTS of branches EVERYWHERE. Put one...
I would think about mantids, I tried to raise some for my guy while he was alive but since i didnt separate them all when they hatched I lost a bunch to them eating eachother. So all you really need to do is have them in their own little plastic cup with a lid some branches and feed them...
when I had my veiled I planned on setting it up on a metal one of these, I have a small one already.

but I was going to set it so the cage was ontop, and then underneath I would have a storage...
Thanks for the tip, I had planned on thoroughly cleaning it and replacing the floor piece and bleaching all branches and vines I had currently, I figured if I re-potted and cleaned all the plants (just 2 were in the cage) then that would be okay he was never really on the pothos to begin with...
I will be taking his cage apart tomorrow afternoon and placing it in the garage, but I will be taking it with me to school for when Im ready for another one. They had him on antibiotics for a long time because of fluid he had built up, but alas he has lost his fight, but he will forever live on...
Things had been looking good for my boy Gilligan up until yesterday when I caught him sleeping during the day. Today before I went to go get food I checked up on him to find him on the floor (not too uncommon for him with his history) but when I picked him up to move him up like I usually do he...
Thank you everyone, I have put so much money into my boy to get him the best vet care around and not once was I sad to do it. When you love your cham you will do anything and everything for it, and I am so beyond happy that he should be okay for the remainder of his life. The thought of loosing...
Thank you =) the support ive received here has helped me out so much through all the ups and downs with my boy, I owe a lot to the people on this forum <3
Junglefries thank you so much for the generous offer, I'm still hoping for the best with my buddy, and really appreciate this forum for the support it gives to everyone. I dont know how I will feel if I have to put my boy down, and dont know how ready I would be to take care of a new baby so...
So as many of you may already know or remember, my boy Gilligan has been a costant question ever since I got him a month or so ago. He has had his good times, but he has had many bad times as well. We have done everything we can to try and get him better but it may have been too little too late...
im in socal right now but I will be back in school in NM when this is happening which is why my family couldnt baby sit, thankfully my best friends little brother will be watching her cat at the house we are staying at and he is willing to baby sit my boy for me =D I just need to give him...
I would say contact your local police on who to contact for mistreatment of animals. They should be sued for the inadequate care they are providing for the people stupid enough to leave their animals with them as babysitters. No animal should have to live a life as miserable as you are...
