I'm not sure what's going on with my chameleon but I found him lying in the corner of his cage. He was lying down on his stomach. His eyes were open.
He also easily let me scoop him up with no fuss and moved slowly onto the branch I put him on.
He has recently been eating a bit less but I...
My mom has been saying she hears my cham hiss but with his mouth closed. And she says it doesn’t sound like just a huff and that it sounds like a hiss.
Could this be him expelling heat or is he just getting upset at my mom? She doesn’t really come near him she just will be in the general area.
My cham will willingly climb onto someone and then hiss at them unprovoked.
Has only happened twice and hasn’t happened with me.
Is it just his behavior changing or could he be hurt or something?
My cham’s behavior has changed within the past month and I’m wondering if he could be sick?
He used to let other people near and he would climb onto them but now he doesn’t and will only climb on me. He has hissed at people and hid from them as well when they are just in the general area...
This is just a hypothetical as winter is coming!
What would I feed my cham if I don’t have access to any live insects due to ice or snow on roads and shipment delays?
Thanks!
My cham started shedding about maybe last week or the beginning of this week. He seems to be hungrier since he started shedding
He eats what I give him faster than usual and was eating some of his shed.
Could he be hungrier? I’ve seen some people say their chams get less hungry but he seems...
I’ve been wondering if they have the capacity or ability to miss people.
I’ve noticed when I’m gone all day and come back my cham seems happy to see me and will come to me quickly.
Opposed to when I’m home all day he will mostly stare at me and come to me more slowly.
Just curious about...
I noticed for a moment his eyes were sticking out more than usual. After a minute they went back to normal. Is that alright?
I took a low quality picture cause the room was dim. Angle from the top to see his eyes sticking out.
Again, it was only for a minute before they went back to normal...
I wanted to upgrade my cricket box so I could keep more and keep them alive longer. How many crickets is best to get at one time? Feeding for an adult chameleon.
What should I include besides water and food? Would they like a substrate and moss or would that make it too hard to clean?
I also...
I got a new chameleon and I'm wondering if his set up is acceptable for him! If there is anything I should change or any tips please let me know.
