and thought to expand one of the conversations there. Out of my lurking for a bit, decided to pop my head in and say hi. Hi :) Anyways, common thread replies were mostly based around repeating information and advice. This forum, being the Chameleon Forum, is often the first stop for new...

I am curious what we feed our chams, how often, their size and weights, and do you notice any weight changes seasonally (or any other odd tidbit). Just info to add to my disorganized mental database. Might also be a nice reference if people are concerned or wondering about their husbandry. I'm...

Last 4 days Special Agent Pardalis has been in the same spot. He's not basking, or moving at all as far as I've observed. He looks fine, reaches for the occasional Dubia, doesn't seem dehydrated, and is actively tracking stuff. Took him out for a few minutes yesterday and he got to wander and...

Hi. I just read your article on chameleon cages, this one... https://petkeen.com/best-chameleon-cage/ It's recent, and that surprises me. Oliver wrote this article. He claims to be a zoologist. With the advice he has given his qualification is questionable. Do you actually vet your authors? If...

Hi folks, ran through a number of similar previous posts and can't seem to find anything that might help. Hoping that posting this may lead to a few different perspectives and opinions based on my husbandry. Filled out the standard form with as much detail as I could. Current Problem - Aiming...

Hi all. So, Special Agent FP hasn't been to the vet, ever. He's doing quite well (aside from mild tongue damage over a year ago leading to some bad aim). He eats healthy, sheds regularly, and is getting more adventurous as he ages. I decided to look into a vet run just for the heck of it, like a...

Hi folks. Was here for a bit last year and dropped off the face of the planet for a while. Just dropping in to say hi and hope everyone and their buddies are all doing well. Special Agent F Pardalis is about a year and a half now. He's in full color and doing well. I did mention a tongue aiming...

I ordered a number of large hornworms online and an unexpected trip came up. On my return I opened the container and found they had gone to pupae stage. Put the container down uncovered with the intent to dispose of it during the next day's cage cleaning. I woke up to a few of these in the...

So, Monsterzero's post had me thinking that it might be an idea to have a post that lists the location of anyone willing to help cover cham care while owner is indisposed. I'm part of a reefeing group that has this, and its nice to know that there's always some coverage and help around in case...

Odd question, I know. With feeding my guy crickets, various worms, etc, size was never a concern, as all were small to medium sized. I'm now feeding (very well fed) dubias as a primary, and I'm farming them. I find myself atm at an in-between. I have large 'thumb-sized' roaches, and small...

So, SAFP has gotten to the point where he couldn't hit the side of his enclosure from an inch away. His aim is terrible. I've read about the deficiencies, in particular B and Ca, but he's pretty healthy. UV is good, gut loaded dubia and crickets, free flying black flies, and the occasional...

So my son has a large AT-AT. He’s lost the guns from the ‘head’ area. Its parked next to the TV tonight. Made me laugh so I took a pic.

I see there have been a few oosts in the past regarding this type situation, but thought I’d make a short theead instead of raising a zombie. I sorta forgot about my black fly larvae and, in passing this morning, I saw they we now full fledged flies. Opened the container in the enclosure and...

And that answer is yes, very, very much. What happened: Superworm time and I was hand feeding. I held the worm out to him and he missed x3 (we have an appointment with the optometrist next week). I decided to place the worm in my palm. He walked right over balanced on the edge of my hand and...

So, my panther is starting to mellow out a bit and accept me, so much so that he now approaches my hand and takes food directly in his mouth. He also gets excited every couple of days for the occasional hornworm or superworm. I've been gorging the hornworms the past few days and they're so fat...

Hi all. I know chams are generally creatures of habit but we know they love hitting up foliage outside of their cages. Having found my escapee 15' from his cage exploring makes me wonder if anyone changes up their cage decor on any regular basis and how does the Cham react?

So, I decided that as my monster is going through a buck in crickets a day, I'd switch over to dubia roaches as his primary and raise them myself. My supplies: A 12 gallon black tote with a yellow lid from the orange box store (with 4 2" vent holes on the sides covered by metal screen repair...

So, I didn’t latch the enclosure last night, you can see it slightly open. Took me a half hour to find him.

HI folks. Sooooo, my dude occasionally does the hanging on the screen deal, but he's gotten quite big, quite quickly. He did a bit of a swing down and took a fall. Fortunately I have a ton of plants so no damage done there. I did notice that he left a nail behind in the screen, and it looks like...

So, we finished a big shed a couple days back and now have some color coming in (green, red, orange). But, over the past few days he's eating more than my 10yo and 6yo kids. Example - This morning: 6 small/medium crickets, 2 medium roaches, 1 large hornworm, then 2 more roaches, and now hanging...
