Good morning everyone! :) I'm curious how often a healthy Panther chameleon should poop? Should a juvenile poop every day? Elaborating on that question a bit more, would size & frequency of poop be a good indicator if he's getting enough food or not? I'm assuming he'd poop less frequently...

I have a 2x2x4 three sided glass enclosure with a glass roof, therefore I have no other option than to mount my UV light inside the enclosure by velcroing it to the top. (Don't judge the glassiness, my city averages a solid 30% humidity year round!) I have a 24" Reptisun T5 5.0 with reflector...

I'm curious if anyone knows if there is a difference between the UVB penetration distance and/or UVB intensity between a Reptisun T5 5.0 - 12 inch bulb vs. a 22 inch bulb. Looking at ZooMed's website, they post a UVI distance chart for the Reptisun T5 5.0 bulb (here) but do not specify anything...

I've got myself a tank of cichlids. It's a 29 gallon that I converted after repeated goldfish losses. If anyone is curious about what they entail, check this out: Cichlid Tips I think African cichlids are wonderful, good fish that actually stay alive.

This is Pablo's the Ambilobe's growth from a baby at 2 months to now at 1 year, 2 months old. Enjoy!! 2 months old 5 months old 8 months old 1 year, 2 months old

He's starting to show more and more yellow as he ages. Check it out! (The first pic was from last night when he was sleeping)

Pablo (a perfectly healthy Ambilobe boy about 7 or 8 months old) poops only when I take him out of his cage. I take him out about once per week and he poops within the first 30 seconds. It's like he holds it in until I take him out. He avoids pooping in his cage at all costs and recently I...

I was doing some cage maintenance yesterday and got Pablo really pissed when I woke him up by accident. here are the pics I got! The last pic is to show what he look like in a normal day. I never knew that panthers get so dark colored. Is that normal?

At the bait shop today, I saw red worms and dew worms. The red worms were really long, skinny and red but looked like earthworms. The Dew worms looked like big fat earthworms. Are either of these OK for Pablo?

Is there a difference between kingworms and mealworms?

Let's collaborate! Give your opinions on what vegetables/fruits are best to gut load crickets. I want to give Pablo the most variety of nutrition possible and hopefully other people can get inspired too as well share suggestions. I use: orange - my crickets seem to gravitate towards this...

I've had him for about a month and he is showing more and more color every week. Here's an update! it looks like his tail will be orange! his head looks like tye-dye!

Just as the title says, I can't find a fixture for 15 inch reptisun UVB fluorescent! I am using the powersun but after reading things on here about that bulb, I want to do the fluorescent but for the life of me I can't seem to find a fixture to accommodate the bulb anywhere! How...

OK I figured out how make the big photos show up, so here's Pablo! 4 month male ambilobe

I got my little guy!!!!!! Meet PABLO!!!! I got him on Saturday from JJ Reptiles in Calgary. They had 8 Ambilobes, all great looking and healthy and I had a very hard time choosing! Unfortunately, they don't know the specifics about them, they are Ambilobe but they weren't sure if it's red or...

I currently have a PowerSun UV mecury bulb (one of these: http://www.petmountain.com/product/reptile-incandescent-bulbs/107801/zoo-med-powersun-uv.html) Is this a good bulb or should I get a fluorescent bulb like the ReptiSun 5.0 UVB (this one...

I am going to get Pablo tomorrow and through research I have discovered that panthers do not have spurs like veils do! (I thought all chams had spurs) I learned that the hemipene bulge is the best way to tell them apart. I looked at pictures all over the internet and it seems that females...

Rest in peace little buddy. :( He passed May 2009 at the age of 7. He was so friendly, he was like a dog. He would come running (as chameleons do) out of his cage when I came to sit with him! The second pic is Lilo and George, yes they got along very well. They were friends. When George...

Hello, I'm Danielle from Calgary. I had a male veiled, George. He passed away in may 2009 at the age of 7 and I still miss him. I attached some photos. I am here to find a new little guy, his name will be Pablo. I hope to be active here, I just found the forum yesterday! Bye!
