    spots and dark colors

    Hi there, Welcome to the forum! How old is she? I ask how old she is because the colors she's showing is what a female looks like when she's developing, or about ready to lay eggs. It's often a surprise to new Cham owners. Our little lady chameleons lay eggs; like chickens they'll keep...

    Husbandry Check?

    Thank you! There are like 3 smaller ones attached to the branches, kind of hard to tell in photos I guess. I recently moved his basking light up because I've been really anxious about it getting too hot or him getting burned so I will move it back down a touch to get it warmer. That is very...

    Potential RSHP in male panther chameleon - immediate help requested

    Thank you! I look forward to the rest. The vet actually recommended last September that I increase the multi vitamins from every other week to 1x/week. I will try going back down to every other week again! The fogger during the day was also a very recent vet suggestion (as of last Friday), so...

    New study: Furcifer antimena growth rates, interesting prelim results

    This is a really cool case study. You saw more variable growth outside and pretty consistent growth indoors. I think the consistent temp and humidity patterns mirror this consistent growth and could explain this stable pattern What are you doing to maintain temp and humidity day vs night...

    Not eating and taking naps.

    The 10.0 uvb is too strong, but I’m not going to get into that right now as I don’t see that as the cause of your current problem. Has your chameleon ever been tested for parasites? I agree with @kinyonga that a vet visit is needed and sooner rather than later. Here are the questions to review...

    Veiled chameleon color issue

    I've pasted in a form for you to fill out so I can comb through your husbandry and make sure all is well there. I'll also note that it would be most helpful to get pics of the entire set up, including the lights and how your chameleon looks. From this photo alone, and I really do hate to be the...

    Enclosure suggestion's/review

    Hi! I love that you’re getting everything set up and ready before getting your chameleon. 💗 Your basking temp of 92 is too hot. Ideal temp will depend upon the age and gender of chameleon that you will be getting. Young chams (below 6 months old) and all girls basking temps should be around...

    Nort is Home! Is His Set-Up Good Enough?

    Thank you! I will change the settings on his mister to go down to twice a day and see if that helps! Our house drops to around 19c at night, and his cage is in the coldest part of the house. Maintaining the lower night temps and daytime humidity shouldn't be an issue for about 9 months out of...

    How old and what gender is my guy???

    I’m pretty certain your little beauty is a girl and as she’s already got her patterns, make sure to provide a good lay bin asap. No idea when she’ll be needing to lay eggs, but is best to have everything ready to help prevent any issues. I would also advise to do a full husbandry review just to...
