They are beautiful, so glad you were able to open your home to them! What about Bug for the white one (for Love Bug?) I also have a cat that's nearly impossible to get into a carrier, even after having her for almost 10 years so I feel your pain. Good luck with your new additions!

I've always used a fabric pop-up laundry hamper and zip tied a branch inside. My guys have always just hung out on the ride to the vet (7 hours round trip). The tops of the hampers are always open, so I clothes pin towels to form a lid. Typically we leave in the dark so I have to wake them...

I'm so sorry for your loss - you sound like an excellent keeper and should be proud at keeping him alive and thriving for 8 years! It's always tough, but it's the bargain we all make when we take these amazing creatures into our hearts and homes. Rest easy knowing you made the best possible...

They look great!

He was such a sweet boy - I had the privilege of holding him and stroking his cheeks while he fell asleep when he was young, and I'll never forget that.

Wow, I've held this belief for nearly 2 decades and it was my concern when the hobby switched to misting overnight. However, now I understand it and it's just one of the things that makes this forum so fantastic - nearly 20 years in and I'm still learning!

Welcome to the forums - there is a ton of great resources on here to help you keep your little girl healthy. Good luck and don't be afraid to ask questions!

You are doing such a great job - it's a very difficult thing to bring a chameleon back from as far gone as Mr. Blue seemed to be. And you are AMAZING for taking in a surprise cham in such condition. We are all rooting for you and Mr. Blue!

Surprise!!! I always keep my silkworm cocoons to hatch and lay eggs, and while I'm good at that they rarely ever hatch. The 2 times they did I was completely in shock - I had to ask my neighbor for a magnifying glass to see them properly! :ROFLMAO:

Happy Birthday!

I'm wondering if he has dust/sand in his eyes from being in the back of the truck. That might contribute to him keeping them shut. I do agree a vet visit is warranted - please be aware, vets who are exotic vets don't necessarily have chameleon knowledge. When you call ask how many chameleon...

@ehdee6 beat me to the punch! It sounds like your little girl is well on her way to a happy life with you - great job on all that you've done so far!

I've been around long enough to remember when Chameleon Academy began, and thought, "what a wonderful resource". Years later and I'm a Stage 3, with my guys in their Dragonstrand cages, still learning new techniques and ways to care for our little tree dragons. Happy almost birthday to one of...

You've gotten some wonderful advice from all of these experience keepers. I'm going to just add a couple of things - you had mentioned soaking her when you first got her. Please, never do this to a chameleon. There used to be (years and years ago) advice floating around that they needed to be...

Hornworms do grow quicker than one would ever expect - I've kept chams for nearly 20 years, and still they never fail to amaze me with how fast they go from a good size, to perfect size, to woah! You can put them in the fridge to slow them down - I think you do that every other day for about 12...

Glad that Mia is recovering nicely and maybe she was just born with one ovary - did the vet say that might be a possibility? She's got a wonderful home with you, and I'm sure she realizes that by now. :) 🩷

Beautiful chameleon! I would caution having him with you when you are cleaning (looks like you were dusting in that one pic). Their lungs are very sensitive, so having him around cleaning products and aerosols isn't necessarily a great idea. Just want you to be able to have him with you for...

I've been a member here for nearly 2 decades, but I've always been more of a luker than a poster. I give huge props to everyone who answers the same questions over and over and over again. I used to come on everyday, just to look around, but now I'm probably down to every week or 2. It's...

For the itching and scratching - I get it too, and I think it's from their nails as opposed to the worms (though it is a possibility). Just wash your hands and wrists, wherever you were touched, with soapy water after handling, and you should be fine - the itching will go away and the spots...

Isn't that about the best feeling in the world???!!! You want to jump up and down and scream for joy (or maybe that was just me) but you know you have to be calm and collected and just enjoy the moment!
