Zeus is almost 3 years old. Few months ago I noticed some brown color in his mouth, just noticed yesterday that it's around all his bottom teeth. Looks to me like what the Internet is calling mouth rot or at minimum, a mouth infection.. No exotic vets closer than 1.5hrs away. Any thoughts??
I just adopted a 2 year old female Veiled. She looks healthy and well cared for. Came with a large custom made enclosure and she seems to be adjusting quite well already!! (Yay!)
The only concern I have is today when I went to feed her, her tongue doesn't work very well It was as if she just...
I'm adopting a 2 yr old female veiled chameleon in 2 days.. need some advice. She comes with everything from her enclosure to extra crickets and supplements. I own a 2 yr old male veiled and just curious if anyone has advice about owning a female veiled chameleon. I'm aware of the egg-binding...
Is it healthy for my chameleon to eat only greens? My make veiled is about 10 months and has been on a hunger strike for what seems like a month now.. I feed him collard greens every other day and sometimes times shredded carrots just to make sure he eats. But won't seems to touch the crickets...
I need some insight into the correct soil for an umbrella plant (Shefflerra).. I thought I wasn't suppose to use a miracle grow type of soil, that is readily available at any store, for the plant I keep in my chameleon's enclosure. So, for me, this means Organic soil is my best bet!? I...
I just open his cage door and it touches the elk horns and he likes to climb out on his door and get on them. So I hooked him up with a way back and forth. He loves coming out everyday! I let him out for about 2hrs at a time per day bcuz I don't have any lights out there for him. I just open all...
When I upgraded my chameleons enclosure to a bigger one, I bought a larger umbrella (shefflerra) plant. It did great for the first month or two, but now the leaves are slowly turning brown and falling off..?? When I brought it home, I wiped down all the leaves and cleaned them and then re-potted...
Zeus's cage is a Reptibreeze 24"x24"x48". After I upgraded to a bigger cage, I had to buy lots of extra vines and plants to fill in the extra space. He really liked it until I put the real Umbrella tree in there. I thought he would like it, but he seems to not move around quite as much. Maybe...
I just ordered a small batch of dubia roaches. Wanted to try them out with my veiled to see if he likes them cuz I think he's getting burned out on crickets. Should I place them in a feeder cup and offer them to him? I don't really want to touch them.. And how many 1/2" roaches should I feed him...
The enclosure that I have for my 9 month old male veiled chameleon is 24" x 24" x 48". I've found some cool LED light strips that I think would look cool in his enclosure.. maybe to add more light and be kinda fancy! Is there any reason I shouldn't use those types of lights? They are just tube...
I'm curious about which is better between meal worms, wax worms and super worms. Most things I've read said that meal worms aren't that healthy and they can cause impaction? Although horn worms and silk worms may be the best, they are a little too spendy and harder to come by. Super worms scare...
Hi, my juvenile male chameleon makes a small vibration when I pet his back.. I with both fingers I'll rub down either side of his spine (softly) and each time I do this, he makes a quick vibration..?? Lol It's kinda funny. It doesn't seem to bother him, I'm just curious if anyone has ever...
Can anyone give new a guesstimate on how old my young male veiled chameleon is? I've had him for 2 weeks and 2 days.. I was thinking 3 months? He just had his first shed yesterday/today..
This picture was taken 2 weeks ago, when I first got him...
I have a coupon for $20 off at Petco that ends tonight and I'm in need of more humidity for my young veiled cham. I currently spray 3 times/day to raise the humidity between 60-80 and use a dripper once a day for an hour or so. I was looking into getting the Reptifogger, but I've seen so many...
My veiled chameleon is about 3-4 months old. I'm almost 100% sure she has a respiratory infection. :( Can someone that lives around Pendleton Oregon take her?? I don't want her to suffer!! She would have a better chance if someone with more knowledge takes care of her in this fragile state...
I have a large bush, not sure what kind, in my front yard. I had my bf cut some branches off so I can put in my veiled's cage. Do I need to "bake" these branches, or can I just rinse them off with a hose? Or do they need to dead branches to put in there? I'm just not sure about bugs on them!? I...
