Vet update The Vet said that she looks fine now, but they are doing a stool sample just to be safe. She is eating well, hydrated, and overall looks very healthy so he thinks she may have just been stressed by something? Thank you everyone for your help! I will keep posting if anything...

Thank everyone so much for their help! We will be switching her multivitamin to 2X a month and calcium every feeding. We had tried worms before but she didn't really like them. We were doing hand feedings though, do you have any recommendations for setting the worms up in the cage? I had seen...

Update Her breeder had told us to dust every other feeding, and that the supplement that we were using was good - However since they also said that she was a boy, I am worried. We should switch to calcium every dusting at D3 2x a month? We do gut load, should we continue doing that? She...

She hasnt laid eggs, yet and her sides are not lump. She is puffed up now with her throat also extended/puffed. She was not down at the bottom, we have never seen her there and we did buy a larger planter so that she had room to dig if needed. No one has confirmed the gender for us, the breeder...

More information: Chameleon Info: • Your Chameleon – Male/Female oustalet chameleon, we have had her since she was 4 months old and she is now 11 months. • Handling – occasionally - maybe 1 time a week • Feeding – Gut-loaded crickets, 5-10 a day depending on her appetite. Now she won’t let...

She also is puffed up with her throat reddish in color...

Hello, We have an 11 month oustalet's chameleon. She has been fine, eating regularly, drinking, and showing no signs of being ill. Today, I came home from work and she is frozen, eyes closed, on a lower branch - she has beautiful colors, hisses when I touch her, and will not open either...

Excellent! Thanks again for invaluable advice. We will start with the plastic on two sides. And just to clarify, you would not recommend a humidifier in the room at all or just not in the tank? As far as the "scout" eye - is it ok if it is making a weird blinking movement when it is closed? It...

Hello all, My fiance and I are the new owners of an Oustalet chameleon. In the past, we have had anoles, tree frogs, tortoise, bearded dragons, and chinese water dragons but this is a whole new ball game! We have our screen tank set up with lights, a live hibiscus, water dish to maintain...

Thanks nightanole for the excellent tips! So we 99% have a female! Pictures are from Galaxy S3 with Cyanogenmod. My fiancee noticed just now (literally) that one I was much larger than the other and not open. (This sucks). She misted it, and noticed that the eye started to re-open. Do you...

We have had a 50/50 response thus far, and we are starting to lean female. Male thinks it's female. Female thinks it's male. Here is the story: Purchased this CB Oustalet's Chameleon from a breeder who said 99% sure it was a male, a second breeder agreed that he thought it was a male...

Very cool! Does it matter if she is turning black or very dark brown now? I had to change her plant out for a hibiscus and she turned black. Also, you pretty confident it's a oustelet's? -- At least that's what the breeder told us, but then again, the breeder was 99% sure male. Ha!

We both did a lot of reading and so far I think it is a "she." Here are three more pictures. We probably can get a definitive answer now if it's a boy or girl. Under the mouth, the color when the chameleon "puffs-up" is grey with some some pigments of dark red. Is this area called the "dewalp?"

We had several breeders look at "her" during the show, all of which said they weren't sure but because "she" was turning colors, they thought it was a male. This is also a captive bred and hatched which is somewhat smaller than the WC chams. How did you decide it was a "she" without a close up...

Hello everyone who is reading. I am an experienced tortoise keeper and made a haphazard jump to keeping a chameleon after my fiancee fell in love with it. I have no experience. The chameleon is in a 18x18x36 screen enclosure with an umbrella plant and a recommended moss that the breeder said...
