...the forums! I put my male panther in his adult cage at 3 months, no issues at all. I use a modified $10 sterilite container for transporting to vet visits and for when I’m deep cleaning cage. He’s in the standard 2x2x4 and now that he’s adult I’ve actually decided to custom build him...

Agreed, I just used manuka honey the other day. Good thing to have around.

Unfortunately they are often put into sub par conditions. My hope is that he will be just fine. If for any reason he is not then there are other breeders that would be better to buy a baby from and I can help you with that. Lets see where he is at tomorrow. Where are you located in case we...

So I was told by the vet that I should get like 4-5 stool samples and bring it in next tuesday so it can be transported to the main vet station and until then keep it all in the fridge. This is pretty different than what all of you said about fecal exam being done with the freshest possible...

I would call them and just ask if they happen to do fecals before rehoming them. Some do but some do not. Honestly unless you see a decline in eating or mucos in the stool I would not stress getting him a fecal or taking him to the vet until everything calms down with Covid. Especially since you...

This is my friends vet. Dr. Lynne Lankes at Heritage Veterinary near Coddingtown Mall in Santa Rosa. Dr. Ken Harkewicz at Berkeley Dog and Cat is phenomenal. Best in the Bay Area. The drive sucks, though. Mine see Dr. Lankes for regular visits/easy fixes. https://yelp.to/qTKq/d0OP86nLl2...

I wonder if it would be easier to ship back home?

No vents below his cage, ah! Just submitted the 10.0 for return - thank you for clarifying, information differs everywhere online! I'm reading my dang gage wrong - highest is about 82 I ordered some silkworms last night thinking this would be easy as they cling to the branches? I was thinking...

Where did you get him from?

Yes, I've made several of late with my service dog for surgery, and one with my beardie. In addition to what you're already bringing, I would fill out the questionnaire used in this forum, and write down anything else you want to tell the vet, and any questions you want to ask. IME, they will...

Just curious why you have to transport him? Other then moving or going to the vet they shouldn’t be transported to often.

Hello, I have read over some past forums abour transporting chameleons to the vet. I have an upcoming vet appointment and would love some ideas! I origionally was looking at some bird cages and adding bird perches for him to climb around on but I thought that it was too much light and he would...

What are the goals during euthanasia, other than ultimately the death of the animal? Should lack of awareness be part? Should lack of pain? Should rapidity be a goal? Should the feelings of the person charged with caring for the animal be taken into account? You already answered the fact...

I have been a keeper now for 2 and a half years and have 3 male Veiled chameleons... I am not a newbie.... The info I am giving you is actually from hands on experience and a ton of education on both Veiled and Panther chameleons. With the reptivite with D3. This one would be given on the 1st...

The only thing I can think of is that they are wanting to ensure that over a few samples there is not a parasite load. I know that when they run some samples it can show a lower parasite load then the cham actually has and sometimes they do not pass the parasite in a particular stool. This is...

It's good to know he's not dehydrated, I thought he might be. He actually gets misted 5 times a day, and his dripper was broken which means he didn't have access to a constant source of water all of the time. His eyes are sunken in a bit, but this might just be due to the parasites if he has...

Yes, going to the right away is the best option, in all cases. But there are owners out there who may be young and don’t have the funds or transportation at that point in time. Or maybe a teenager who doesn’t want to get in trouble by their parents for being irresponsible or whatever the case...

Thank you! That's a good idea for transport, etc. I'm glad to see most are saying at 3 months they can go straight into the larger cage. The kammerflage bunch has some hatched in november that will be ready soon so they'll be around 3 to 4 mos. I think next year I will look into custom or at...

What?? Looks like a healthy young veiled to me... Back to the OPs question, I would set up the enclosure a head of time. Use the box and sticks suggestion mentioned above to transport.

I know he is small. I have been worried the whole time! We have no other pets and I believe his friendliness is a natural trait of his. He is my third cham and my first was super friendly, lived on my shoulder most of the time I was home and lived to be almost 8 years old. My second was a...
