They can invade the roach habitat too…if there are any loose in your house, they will find the container you keep the roaches in and even your chameleon cages. I hope this doesn’t turn out to be the case.

You said…”I hate having to inject his little arms with the antibiotic”…you are alternating arms when giving the shots I assume?

Campani is one species I haven’t had, sadly. Nothing to add right now.

They are awful to get rid of. They can squeeze into sealed containers in some cases and even get past the gasket on your fridge door.

Do they look like this? https://www.sciencesource.com/1254847-phorid-fly-stock-image-rights-managed.html

Do they run around in a sort of jerky movement?

Definitely has MBD. If it hasn’t been addressed, it needs to be corrected asap. Were his front legs bent like that when you got him?if so, you should talk to the store about it. They should not have been selling a chameleon with MBD, IMHO. It’s mostly a matter of strengthening the bones again...

You talked about Don Wells…he was a very knowledgable person…overall nice man!

You can buy silent crickets online. They’re called banded too crickets I think,

I hope it works!

Just for fun… https://www.cartoonstock.com/directory/c/chameleon_skin.asp?srsltid=AfmBOor43NjuK_t9vd9e8Cg9St-uXqfkzyHBEnq70Fl50BawLEgiMnqm

The yellow spots could be a number of things…bacterial infection (abscess), fungal infection, nutritional deficiencies, and trauma. I don’t think the white spot is likely a burn…but I could be wrong. I wish I had a better answer for you. Is it growing/spreading in any way?

Happy birthday (almost) to Chameleon Academy! May it continue for many more years, growing in chameleon knowledge all along the way! Continue the cycle to learn, understand, and pass it on!!! 🎂🎈🎉🥂💐

You said…”X ray showed something not bony behind the eye. It could be inflammation, an abscesss, tumor, super deep debris maybe? ”…could be any one of those things. Hope you get it figured out.

Are the yellow areas in the white patch raised slightly?

Wow! Can’t believe they are ready to go already….seems like it was only yesterday when they were hatching! Can’t wait to see the colours they show as adults! Do you know how many are male and how many are female?

Place the cricket so he ends up biting it when he closes his mouth as you put it in.

Can you please post a picture of your chameleon on/near something that will show its size? The insects might be too small.

Try tucking a cricket head first into his mouth while he’s drinking and his mouth is opening and shutting to drink. He will either eat it or spit it out….but they usually eat them.

I was never curious about the formic acid, even though I knew it was found in ants, until today…and your mention of it made me wonder what other insects might have formic acid in them. There’s always something new to learn about! I’ve never seen a chameleon target an ant either…but I only have...
