    Tongue issue

    Hi. Your uvb is a bit too far away for your guy to be getting optimal levels. It should be around 20 cm between basking branch and uvb. I understand and appreciate why you have one end of the uvb elevated, but I would keep it flat on top of the enclosure and by having the basking branches at...

    Lost chameleon in Navarre, FL

    Hello, I am here in Navarre, FL for a vacation. My chameleon, Abbas, wiggled out of a crack in his travel cage outside this morning between 6:00 AM and 8:00 AM. There are a few trees next to the house, some Chinese tallow and pine trees with vines on the trees. He is a piebald adult veiled...

    HELP My Chameleons eye is closed

    Hi and welcome. You’ve gotten some great advice already. To expand on that, your chameleon looks younger than 4-6 months…or is a girl. Boys have very prominent nubs sticking out from the backs of their back feet. My guess would be maybe 3 months. He’s very thin and not getting enough to eat. He...

    Eye issue - story of past 2 months - question

    Hi guys! I posted 2 months ago about Sergio and his issue with one of his eyes. I'd like to share our story with vets and about his illness, also I have a question at the end. 2 months ago I noticed that some kind of jelly-ish thing was in front of his right eye. Now I know, it was a drop of...

    New owner here… help.

    Ok, you said she was from petco... They tend to use the wrong supplementation with chams. With eyes like your girls this could be due to incorrect supplementation but it could also be due to an infection. So I would recommend getting her scheduled to see a good reptile vet to get a fecal...

    Hunt for Green Giant Parson’s update.

    Here’s an update on our epic adventure to see Green Giant Parson’s in the wild. Just a little info on what it took to actually see these chameleons in their natural habitat. It took 27 hours of travel from California to reach Antananarivo which is the capital of Madagascar. Then about a 1 1/2...

    Rescue Cham W/ stomatitis?

    Yes just pissed as all he'll, luckily not gravid. Aunt in law is a Cham pro with gravids so luckily she'll be able to help with that rodeo. Only ever had males before because I don't like dealing with the eggs lol. Good to know about the calcium, I'll be switching. It was a sample bottle we got...

    Chameleons as Christmas presents -- Input needed!

    Time: consuming. I adopted Carmelo Cham as a gift for a 15 year old who previously owned a crested gecko. We are 2 months in. Due to the complex husbandry, feeding, and monitoring requirements, I have not turned over complete care to her. I am the primary care giver and will remain as such...

    My chameleon is a little too active?

    Hi. :) Your chameleon may be active and overly friendly/wanting to come out because he is unhappy with his enclosure. Chameleons are arboreal and need lots of branches and/or vines to travel on. All of that empty air space is being wasted. I love the look and see that you prefer a natural...

    Okay to keep enclosure open?

    Hi and welcome! :) This isn’t a simple yes or no, I’m afraid. Ideally, if you are present and providing continuous monitoring for his safety, then yes it’s ok. However, I do see reasons that he will more than likely try to escape at every opportunity and so this could be risky. I hate being...

    Gravid cham sleeping during the day, stopped digging holes

    @Mendez said..."Can't all species of chameleon feel vibrations? Not vibrations through the air, but vibrations that travel through the floor and up the table legs?"...yes but I was thinking of the vibrations they use for communication like elephants do.

    Is my chameleons head ok?

    Hi and welcome. I agree that this looks like a thermal burn. With our male veileds, the distance between basking branch and lights can be deceiving because of their tall casque. I’m not sure I understand if you’re using a 100w basking bulb or basking temp is 100. Either would be too much...

    Hello! I’m Jann. I have been busy with moving so haven’t been on the forums much lately. I free range my chameleons, iguana and Tokay Gecko.

    Govee Smart plugs - What do you use?

    Be careful which plugs you get!!! Not all of them have the same features. For example, weeks back, I had a power outage. I have my mister and fogger hooked up to my smart plugs. This was early-late afternoon. When the power came back on.... everything turned on!!! The mister and the...

    New person with a new chameleon

    Would a T8 work just the same as a T5? I have an older fixture that takes T8 bulbs, and I know Reptisun makes 5% T8s and I could grab one of those much sooner than getting a whole new T5 fixture. I’m not sure if there are any major differences beyond the size of them… I used to have some real...
