I have a veiled chameleon that I believe has a parasite infection. How can I go about treating this? A reptile vet is out of the question because from my experience they have been the biggest joke going at least in my area. I am pretty certain there is something parasite related because he...
Well It's been over a week and my hatchlings are still alive so they must be eating. I caught a few eating at this point. Now I want to focus on humidity so I will be going bioactive. The question I have is I do not want to flood the enclosure so how much do they really need to be misted. I...
What should I use as a bioactive substrate for my hatchlings? I typically keep dart frogs which everybody swears by ABG but with Chameleons I get different search results because ABG has bigger pieces and chameleons can eat the substrate. I was thinking reptisoil or just regular organic...
I still have not seen them eat after 4 days which is when the first one hatched. The youngest is 2 days old. I understand I may just not be seeing them eat. Here is the setup
- Zilla bow front 18x21x25
- Zoomed 18" T5 HO 10.0 placed diagonal (Can switch to a 12" T5 Ho 5.0) Used 10.0...
I am posting this into a new thread to get more exposure since it is not related to my original question in the other thread. Since hatchlings can die so easy if they don't get established I am asking again in here because time is critical. I have not seen the babies eat yet but haven't been...
So I have 4 eggs 2 of which just pipped ahead of when I thought they were schedule even though my house has only been in the high 60s this winter. Sorry I am asking this question because I think the answer has changed in the community over the years from when I last kept chameleons. I live in...
I checked today and 2 of my 4 Panther Chameleon eggs have noses sticking out from splits in the side of the eggs. This is the first time I checked them in a few days because after months you get lazy and start to forget. At 4am last night for some reason I got the urge to check on them and...
I'm not going to post all the husbandry info because it is unknown except the Chameleon was kept on Rapashy Calcium Plus with every feeding. I kept a veiled chameleon years ago and I believed I used Reptical Without D3 for most feedings, with D3 once a week, & a multi vitamin once a month...
If I go with a Zoomed Retibreeze Delux with Acrylic front and put a cork or similar background so I have something to mist against and not drench the wall will that still be adequate airflow for a Panther or similar Chameleon?
While reading online I have come across tons of information stating that distilled/RO water is bad for reptiles. I know for a fact it is bad for humans, mammals, amphibians due to the PH being acidic and leeching minerals. RO water for human consumption is remineralized.
Now every misting...
