What kind of Jackson Chameleons are there? I know of Jacksonii, Xantholophus and Merumontana. Are these the only subspecies? What are these "Dwarf" ones I've read of? Are there any photographs that can accurately depict the differences between a xantholophus, merumontana and jacksonii? Some...

Firstly, I want to delete this thread eventually. Perhaps the moderators could just remove this thread entirely in a week or so? It is really bothersome and depressing to just leave this morbid topic here. I just wanted to let everyone know who had been following the updates I have been posting...

After analyzing my chameleon's blood we found he has high phosphorus. And likely kidney disease. The veterinarian suggested that I give him 0.05 of antiacids with aluminum hydroxide twice a day. He mentioned Mylanta but all I could find was Gaviscon. I only gave him about one drop yesterday...

My adult jackson chameleon, after a vet visit, was discovered to have high phosphorous and likely kidney disease. I was recommended to give him 0.05 of Antiacids with aluminum hydroxied twice a day. I just want advice, encouragement and help, as much as I can get. I have kept him allive this...

For those of you who hadn't been following the issue with, Tricky: He stopped eating even though everything with the enclosure, food, etc. was fine. Didn't know why it happened but apparently he got an impaction, gave hi some lactulose, got the blockage out. Even after defecating again, he...

My adult male Jackson Chameleon had an impaction. After giving him some lactulose, he defecated twice, quite a large amount, so I believe the blockage has been removed. However, ten days passed since he had last ate, and he still refused to eat anything. I tried crickets which he refused, and a...

My chameleon hasn't eaten in 10 days. I believe this was due to an impaction as after a veterinarian gave him some lactulose, he defecated quite a bit the following morning, and again earlier this morning. Still, he refuses to eat any crickets I show him, and after purchasing some super worms he...

Today is the 11th day that, Tricky my jackson chameleon refuses to eat anything. It seemed he had an impaction but some lactulose helped him get rid of the blockage. I do not think he is too filled up anymore, I saw him defecate quite a large bit yesterday and today. I thought he may have just...

After a vet visit, my Jackson Chameleon, Tricky was given lactulose by the veterinarian. She sent me home with some, saying that I should give it to him twice a day (dosage 0.05). This was because, Tricky had an impaction, and had not eaten or defecated for ten days. Earlier while he was...

After getting home from the first vet visit, Tricky seemed rather lethargic. The first thing he did was go to sleep after being given the medicine that the veterinarian gave him. After she brought him back he had his eyes closed and when he would open them, he would also gape to show lots and...

After a visiting a veterinarian, I was given lactulose for, Tricky. I was told to give him 0.05 twice a day, and that I would need another person to help me restrain him and force his mouth open to get him to consume it. I think I can give it to home without forcing anything. He will come up...

For those of you who did not see the previous post, I was concerned with my Jackson Chameleon, Tricky; He had been sleeping often during the day, and then stopped eating. He still has not eaten for a week, and last he did eat, that was his first and only cricket for that day, without eating for...

Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Jackson Chameleon, male, one year old. Been in my care for almost one year. Handling - When I hold my hand out he will walk on it all the time. However, I tend to only handle him when I want to take him out to eat or if I am taking outside for some natural...

I know that any chameleon should have variety in their diet, but let's just assume one uses only crickets. How often and how much should an adult Jackson Chameleon eat? Do you feed your Jackson chameleon every other day, or every day? And how many crickets do you feed them a day? I'm sure...

Yesterday, Tricky (10 months old jackson chameleon) started scratching his head with his right hind leg, and when I went to look at him, I noticed dead skin, or flakes over his eye, peeling or falling off. Looked normal for shedding, and should be about the right time for shedding as he last did...

Most likely going to Repticon soon. Looking forward to it. I guess it would depend on the location, but for those of you who've ever been to it, please let me know your experiences. I wish that I could bring, Tricky with me (very friendly and mellow jackson chameleon) but even though he'd...

How do you transport your chameleons? For those of you who don't want a relatively long winded post and just want to go straight to answering the questions, they are: 1) How do you take your chameleon to the vet (just leave them on your shoulder, put them in a box…?) 2) Have you ever taken...

My blue spray bottle that I use for misting and sometimes directly for giving, Tricky water to drink, broke a bit ago. Don't think it's fixable this time, so I borrowed my sister's. I was misting for over a minute, and he kept following the spray bottle, trying to get to it. See he couldn't get...
