    Mold on sticks…can I use hydrogen peroxide 3%

    I’ve never used a fan on any of my cages….but the air always moved because of the chimney effect…even in the aquariums I had to use in the beginning. I have also never fogged cages. This doesn’t mean fogging or fans are a bad thing. Things have changed over the years…some for the worse and some...

    I rescued a velled chameleon and need help

    Hi and welcome to the forum! Chameleons do best in a 24” 24” 48” cage with lots of natural plants and branches. They need a T5 HO linear uvb bulb with a white heat bulb and need to be fed a variety of live insects. I agree with checking out Neptune the chameleon and chameleon academy. Fountains...

    The Exo Terra Compact UVB charts

    Yes its 40 per uvi unit. So uvi 3 would be around 120 UVB. But to be honest i think you are going way overboard with your levels. 3.0 is the new standard for max at the hang out/basking area. thats what we want to the top of the head to get on a brand new bulb. Not 4 just to be safe etc. 3...

    Sanitizing enclosure plants for parasites

    Note: posting this here because it's ultimately about treating for parasites. I had the joyless privilege of pulling a roundworm out of one of my chameleon's bums this morning. She and I were both horrified. Obviously, her cage (and all my boys) will get a deep clean tomorrow and I'll collect...

    chameleon hiding

    I got my veiled chameleon, randall, about a month ago. Everytime I come near his cage, he runs (as fast as a chameleon can) away and hides in his leaves. I have never seen him eat so i put a camera by his cage while i was out for the day and caught him eating, drinking, and exploring. Does he...

    Is she okay?

    Hello, I'm also new to the hobby, but I do know that chameleons do indeed shed in segments or patches. My first idea is, maybe the temperature is off. Perhaps she is at the top of the cage in her dark colors to better absorb the heat? I believe a veiled female such as her requires an 80...

    Black spots on face

    It’s all thanks to this forum. I honestly don’t know what I’d do without it, I’ve learned so much and deeply appreciate everyone’s help. This community is awesome. I understand! I just feel the need to explain myself since I want it to be known that I’m truly tying my best. I was also looking...

    Help me! New chamleon owner!

    I really needed to hear that last part, I appreciate it. I'm going to get him his needed bulb asap. I think I'm gonna try a Moistenland like a user on this thread recommended and yes, I will be saving for a vet visit. I'm pretty his conditions in the store he stayed in were not as well as they...

    Help me! New chamleon owner!

    Coming from someone who’s bought a Cham on impulse without knowing their needs I empathize with your situation, this form will point you in the right direction. I’d give you an order of operations of what I’d focus on starting from square one. -you have an 18x18x36 cage, I’d upgrade to a 2x2x4...

    Chameleons eyes are closed.

    You need a vet visit asap. And you need to overhaul that cage. She does not have the right UVB type which is more then likely the cause for the decline and eyes being closed. Without the proper changes she will further decline until she passes. Shower can stress them out majorly and should only...

    Is it MBD or old age?

    I guess I’m just looking for opinions… My boy is a veiled chameleon. He’s about 8 1/2 years old now - we don’t know exactly how old he was when we rescued him in September 2017, but he was about two inches long from nose to butt (not including tail) so I was assuming 1-2 months old at that...

    Husbandry review

    Hi everyone I want a review of my panther chameleons cage. His name is emmet, he’s about one and a half years old, and recently been going through a color funk where he lost all his color. I’m pretty sure it’s just a winter thing and it will go away, as that’s what other people said in the...

    Deadly Chameleon Myth series

    Yes you did, I was just jumping on to give my perspective in response to your comment. I also could be wrong, but I think the misting during the day is no issue as long as the heat lamps are off. As hard as we try, theirs just no way we’re ever going to create natural environments because theirs...

    Need help trouble shooting- 2 Jackson's

    Two of my buddies are now having issues with their health and I'm struggling to determine what's the cause. I'm calling the vet but am hoping to brainstorm why my healthy chameleons have diminished suddenly over the last 6 months. My 2 other chams, another Jackson and a Panther, have been ok...
