    ❄️Winter is coming❄️

    Contrary to popular belief, chameleons are fine "cold" as long as the basking area gets to at least 75. So it can be 45 air temp in the morning and still be fine if its a "sunny day". I would not use a space heater, again they are fine with the room temp of 55-60. Currently in Madagascar this...

    Climbing under basking light again?

    I would not want to encourage screen climbing behavior in adults. So i would want to figure out a setup that gets him onto a branch. I am evil and try to get them to "lateral bask" by aiming the hot spot off the bulb off center to the branch. So on the branch enough to attract cham, but then...

    Health Quesion

    (warning, n00bs should not be poking even soft tips "into" the eyes, leave it to the professionals) Personally i would try some people saline eyeball wash and a q-tip etc. He may just have a wee bit of shed stuck, which is normally the case. Sometimes they can get it out themselves by having...

    Deadly Chameleon Myth series

    Petr is very black and white on "nuanced" subjects. I can answer your two questions "animals" can not store protein. If its got 4 legs, then the only source of protein is the free floating amino acid pool that is "in the organs". Its not much, maybe a months supply during a starvation event...

    Deadly Chameleon Myth series

    Meh. Not really digging the final verdicts. It boils down to "dont bring up a problem if you dont present a solution". "dont feed your cham commercial insects, one that leads to terrible pain, suffering, and guaranteed death." Welp guess ill start breeding Madagascar bees or something...

    Panther questions

    They can be setup exactly the same. Males do need a bigger cage for either of them. The only thing, which i dont recommend, is panthers wont nom nom on the plants nearly as much as the veileds, so you can get away with some prettier, but not as tummy approved, plants. but again they can all...

    How Often Should You Feed Your Chameleon?

    Ill add i dont go by head pads, i go by tail meat. If you have a center line, your cham is perfect. If you have a sausage tail, you have a fatty. If you have two lines or can see individual vertebrae, they are underweight.

    Now a Parsons

    I still hold the belief that they infact do not have a side white spot, and its either a watermark or even the photographer can not afford all the pixels in the photo after having said cham.

    High Heat Tolerant Plant

    uhhh if the basking bulb is strong enough to hurt plants, its way too strong for the cham. Around here the plants grow towards the basking bulbs and even crowd them out to the point the cham cant bask. Your bulb might just be hot spotting or something and you can just angle it to the cage so...

    WARNING! T5HO fixtures, NOT ALL come with a UVB bulb

    Sorry. Round here we have to spray the neighborhood for 8 year olds every year, they seem to come out of the wood work. This year we found out one has a beardy and one has a leopard gecko.
