Okay my room get cold so my feeders die off easily which costs a lot of money, so I bought a heat pad and was going to put it in the container. Then an idea struck me what if I build a small cabinet to hold the feeders and the mist reservoir and have the heat pad in there along the back to keep...

So i ordered some roaches to see if my little man will eat them and possibly enjoy them. I got my package and thought it would be small to medium sized nymphs, unfortunately they were big roaches close to 2 inches long and I have no idea what to do to see if he will like them. I happened to find...

I recently bought a plant from my local Lowes and all it said was schefflera and now I am being told it may be toxic. My chameleon doesn't eat plant he only drinks from the leaves should it still be removed. the plant can be seen here...

For one I have redone my little mans cage and I have everyone to thank from what I have seen here. You guys gave me so much inspiration and helped me accomplish what I did. Of course I assume you will want to see pictures but that will sadly have to wait until tomorrow:D. But while I was out...

I am trying different feeders with my chameleon and I hope he likes them so I can start a colony of roaches. While looking up information I see a 1 male to 5-10 female, along with egg crates standing and heat from 85-90 degrees. right now with it being winter it is cold so a heat pad would be...

I have been feeding my cham crickets for far to long and they suck! so I want to switch to roaches (along with worms), but before I do so I need to make sure he will eat them. I am looking at ordering a small amount from Mulberry farm (Discoid roaches, silk worms, horn worms, and butter worms.)...

Okay I have been a terrible owner I have not offered much variety in my little guys diet and I feel awful so I want to place some orders for roaches butterworms and hornworms. I usually buy crickets and gutload them but now I want to offer more, first I don't want to buy a lot because there is a...

Okay it has been a while since I have been on here due to the fact that everything was going pretty well, but recently my chameleon has developed an eye infection and what looks like an URI. After making an appointment I have been trying to figure out what may have caused it. The only thing that...

Okay, I have been looking around and searching to see if chams go to bed earlier during this time of year, I have seen that some people change their schedules from 7am to 5:30. Now if this is true I feel much better because my chameleon is doing the same thing I just was to make sure it is...

Hello fellow cham lovers, today i have noticed my plants are starting to die and the time to change my reptisun 5.0 is approaching. Now i know this works great because people use it but I have done some research on the forums and I keep coming across these two things arcadia and 6500k (i think...

Hello everyone, I am currently feeding my chameleon crickets and as I have heard it is great to offer more so I plan to do so. But I have a few questions and was hoping someone might be able to answer, I cup feed with a sunny d bottle with mesh on the back so the crickets can climb this will...

Okay sorry for the sideways picture but I want to know what you guys think of my new set up. Some things have been changed, for instance there is now plastic on the sides to help with humidity I moved the plant a little and our mistking came in so that is now set up. Also just as a side not my...

So I took my chameleon to the vet last week and received an antibiotic to help with the RI after four days of treatment his crust near the eyes has cleared and seems better, His fecal looked normal, I was uneasy using the smz tmp because I had only heard of people using baytril but it seems to...

So I went to the vet yesterday and they gave me antibiotics for a RI. It wasn't baytril and asked why they said it can be very rough for a younger chameleon (6 months) and gave me smz tmp. I just want to know if anyone has ever used this and if its okay?

First off I was wondering if anyone has ever had a chameleon who is perfectly fine, until you decide to go look at them and watch them for a while and then he decides to scare the life out of you by making popping noises from the throat. Now I was thinking it was a RI so I took him to the vet...

So I found out my little gut has giardia so just to be safe i took his cage out and cleaned it real well. Then i added some new gauges to help with the humidity and everything. While I am doing this my chameleon is in a tree soaking up some rays and he seemed pretty happy. After everything was...

So as stated before I took my chameleon in because he was making some popping noises and I thought to myself URI so took him in. (he didn't have excess saliva or bubbles just the popping) Before going in I call the vet and ask if I should take a fecal just in case, they say sure. Vet says he...

So I took my little guy in to the vet to get checked for a URI. Well after talking to the vet he had previous chameleon experience and knew quite a bit about them. So I trusted him and let him check everything out. He said this was the best looking and most active chameleon he has seen here. No...

So I have been trying to figure this out with my chameleon making popping noises and all. Everything points towards a URI, so I am going to take him to an exotic vet ASAP (Tuesday). The one thing that is bothering me is how did this not happen at the breeders but happens with me? Did he have it...
