    Plants strong enough for my Mellers....

    The vet visit went good jim! He has an infection in his mouth and wasn't eating or drinking due to the pain. He is going to be on an antibiotic and a mouth cleanser for about a week and the vet said he should hopefully perk up!

    4oz. nolvadent solution with 5mg/ml suspension of baytril? I got to give it orally once a day. According to the Melleri discovery, this shouldn't be given more than 2weeks and he is only getting it one. I gotta watch his appetite and make sure he drinks a lot of water! If I notice any...

    Plants strong enough for my Mellers....

    I am just curious what plants everyone likes to use for such a large Cham? Also, where should I get them, and if I get them from a flower shop or greenhouse what do I need to do to prepare them and make them safe for my mellers?

    I hope you are right! Just the same, this has been quite a scare for me! The guy we got him from told us that melleri can live in glass cages, DON'T need lights and are practically bullet proof/ not sensitive at all! We found out the hard way that none of that was true and we almost lost him...

Also, we have done more research resently on the melleri discovery site and according to them he COULD possibly be a she! Hopefully the vet can shed some light on that tomorrow! I know...

    Sick Mellers chameleon

    I have had my Mellers for one and a half years. He is all of the sudden not eating or drinking. The skin on his eyes look slightly more wrinkly and his spine is starting to become more pronounced! I'm not sure what to do, there have been no changes in his environment and we keep a close eye...
