    Lump on veiled chameleon's leg

    Hi and welcome. I have to add my agreement that your guy needs to be seen by a good vet asap. He’s got several issues that if nothing else, look like they would be painful. Sadly, exotics vets for reptiles are few and far between and ones with good experience with chameleons are even rarer. Many...

    PLEASE HELP! Eyes closed. Crusted and already saw a vet!

    Hi and welcome. :) You’ve already gotten some great feedback. I just want to add a bit more and warning that I talk a lot. First, showers are not at all good for chameleons. Besides causing much stress, even what we perceive as lukewarm, can be scalding hot to a chameleon. Instead, do as...

    Beginner seeking advice

    Hi and welcome. :) So the very first and one of the most important things you need to know, is that each chameleon needs to be kept in it’s own seperate enclosure and not even be able to see any of the others. The majority of reptiles are loners and it is not only very stressful for them to be...

    Scratching eyes and feet. Why?

    He’s a cutie! It looks like he’s able to get too close to the lights. If your uvb is sitting directly on top of the screen, that could irritate his eyes. I don’t see anything unusual about on/about him to explain why he’s scratching, like stuck shed. My alarm bell went off when you said he was...

    How much time does it takes for follicle absoprtion?

    Ok. Your supplements are ok. It would be better to use the Repashy calcium Plus LoD - the one with the Jackson’s chameleon on the label. But my concern was that she was getting a source of D3 and calcium on a good schedule, and she is. I do see that there are some improvements that she would...

    Is my veiled chameleon looking for a place to lay her eggs?

    It won’t let me attach the pictures because it says the files are too large, so I added them in a google doc. This is the link: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1--ncHVu8HXusdfObPhzBoJ6KebZ3S0RPykYqFlo1hZU/edit

    Wax worms in Beehives

    Please keep in mind who I am. I am still very new at all of this. However, my immediate thought is: stay away from anything related to bees from the wild. My reasoning here is that it is widely believed (and almost impossible to not be true), that issues with bee populations have been due...

    Rethinking Staple Foods

    I’ve had the good fortune to travel to Madagascar several times to specifically see chameleons in their natural habitats. I’ve come to the conclusion that chameleons will eat just about any insect that comes into range. There are tons of grasshoppers, leafhoppers, crickets, katydids, moths...

    So I had a moment of opportunity and decided to teach my wife how to feed Spike....

    Yep and that was my point today. She can feed him in a pinch but I wanted to make sure she understood the whole process I have with each bug in particular. And how to know how much/many to feed etc. But today we got a lesson on what to do when your chameleon goes crazy :ROFLMAO: We will...

    PLEASE HELP! Eyes closed. Crusted and already saw a vet!

    @MissSkittles first and foremost, you rock. Thank you. Yes! A LOT of information, but I appreciate it and am grateful. I think I was an example of falling victim to a great deal of misinformation, sadly. Thank you for all of the recommendations, and I apologize for the delay in responding. I...

    Respiratory illness? Gullaredema? is it time to see a vet??

    Ok, so I have some more feedback to add. The gauge you are using is notoriously inaccurate. You need to get one that is digital and has a probe. You'll find that you humidity and temps are much different that what that gauge is telling you. If for some crazy reason that gauge hasn't yet...

    Any suggestions?

    Your tank is so pretty 😍🤩. my tank has soil already because I planted the plants inside the dirt so make them easier to grow, so there's clay balls which soak up some of the water from the soil and then refeed the soil so I don't have to water them, I'm removing the lucky bean plant like you...

    Late night fall help!!!

    Males will patrol their enclosures, which is one of the reasons why it’s important to give them at least the minimum 2x2x4’ enclosure. If you give him double that size, he will use all of the space in his patrols. I asked to see your enclosure to make sure it has plenty of little pathways for...

    Small white hole in chameleon's skin

    Thanks, I will try this. I just had a small mesh cage laying around from when she was a tiny baby and was waiting on my big cage to come in. I realized it was a bad idea when I opened the door this morning to a cold 30 degree windy day lol.
