Hi Does this parasite exist in different forms or types? The reason I ask is because my vet has told me that coccidia has been detected in my chameleon, however this was found by taking a skin sample and observing it under the microscope. I am somewhat confused by this as faecal...

Hi all. I have just returned from holiday and during my trip i had my chameleon being looked after by my vets who offer a boarding service. I collected him on my return and have noticed what looks like a petruding bone from the underside of his body. It seems to be affecting his strength and...

Hi all, My cham went to the vets today for a blood test. When I opened his box on returning home I noticed that his tail seems to be discoloured. It appears to have darkened in colour quite a lot. The vets are closed so I cannot ask the question now. I suspect this could be a reaction to...

Hi all. I noticed a couple of weeks back that my Veiled Cham had puffy eyes. I checked him again soon after they were back to normal so I assumed he was maybe cleaning them. I have checked on him just in his cage and both of his eyes appear to have puffed up again. I haven't made any changes...

Hi all, I have just brought my panther Cham back from the vets and he needs to take some medication orally. The only issue is that I cannot get his mouth open. He is impossible to annoy as he is so placid and friendly (neither do I want to stress him unnecessarily). I have tried to apply...

My male panther has been acting a little strange over the past few weeks. Most days he is completely normal, eating, drinking and climbs out of his cage for some interaction etc... We have noticed that approximately one day per week he will sit in the same spot all day and be completely...

Hi guys, I'm concerned about my veiled Cham, he appears to have burnt himself mildly. He has been basking in a weird position lately and I suspect this is how it's happened. I have now changed his setup to prevent this happening again. Anyway, there is a row of 5 or 6 spines on his back which...

Grumpy Bert..... Ernie see's the (rare) sun.....

Hi folks. I've just made my first attempt to cook Mulberry chow (powder). I think I failed. My microwaved nuked it, literally. I followed the instructions provided as per my microwave power (800w). Luckily I only went with a small amount of powder just in case I messed it up (50g). I...

Hi all... Over the past few months my 1yr old male panther has been defecating less frequently. At times he can go a week or before he takes a dump. When he does take a dump he tends to do it when he comes out of his cage (triggered by nerves) - never in his cage. This is a slight concern -...

My latest addition is on his way and is due any time. He is a 3.5month old male Ankify x Ambanja. His sire being the Ankify. He will be called Cookie, which is short for Cookie Monster... He will soon be joining his brothers Bert and Ernie! Pictures to follow...

Just been flicking through my digi camera and found a few snaps so thought I'd share them. Probably a month or two old now. My plan this weekend is to get them out again for some free-ranging and picture taking :-)

My colony arrived today. They've got some serious growing to do! There are 500 there and they now need rehousing - looks like I am in for a long tedious evening

Come on then.... Lets see your Ambanja's and Ankify's. I think this is going to be my next Cham addition and I need a push or it just wont happen. Lets see them guys... :D:cool:

A few snaps from yesterday. Still figuring out the settings on my new camera...

I know this has been brought up before in the past. I've done some searches and found some older threads. However, I was hoping some of you can recommend a camera for me. At the moment I am using my iPhone4 for all of my pictures. Unless there is good lighting the pictures can be pretty...

Just received this birthday card from a relative. Thought I'd share it with you all!

Not sure whether I am being paranoid or not here but a second opinion would be appreciated on this. I have just noticed that my Yemen has a dark patch on his head and I am paranoid that this is a burn. He recently shed in this area and I have only just noticed this. What do you guys think? If...

My Chams seems to shed at the same time, give or take a day. They can go weeks and weeks without shedding and they both start together. They are different sizes, ages and types. Is this coincidence or is there a reason for this? Can anyone relate to this?
