Hi all. Been away from the boards for a while. I also purchased an AquaZamp kit March 5 2015... havent received anything back except sales confirmation at time of purchase. Emailed a few times and no response. I needed this thing weeks ago and should have gone with Mist King now that i...

I want to repaint the room my cham is in... right now its off white/tan... I want to paint it charcoal with white trim as well as 1 dark charcoal almost black accent wall which will be across from the chameleon's cage on the opposite side of the room. Will this effect his behavior? I wear black...

He is a blue bar... started losing color about a month and a half ago. It was so slow that I didnt really notice. Hope some days in REAL sun will help... makes me sad.

Just ordered some Reptaid to give it a shot... thought I was seeing some improvement but he is really brown today. I will take him out to get real sun on Monday and Tuesday (will be in the low 70s). Hope it perks him up a bit... Anyone else have any more suggestions for me on this losing...

Oops. here is the other pic. See the indent where his upper gumline is? it looks to be from the skin on his bottom lip because it sticks up a little.

Mathesar usually shows me his "good" side. I literally have hundreds of pics of him always sitting in the same spot with one side to me... so no wonder I never really noticed this happening. I saw this little spot on the outside of his lip when we got him as a baby Sept 2012... Sometimes it...

I noticed that if I walk up to Mathesar's cage with sneakers or socks on, he wont take his eyes off of my feet and he tries to hide. He is fine with my bare feet though... What things have you noticed your cham is afraid of?

Oh wow he is awesome! I am so jealous because my boy has lost his colors. :(

This coming Monday will be in the 70s!!!!!! I am definitely taking him outside in that! Thanks for the replies... I was seriously stressing over him so much!!! I will get more variety in his gutload too. @tracysimpson In his cage I have an umbrella plant and an orchid.. outside of it I...

Well just to make sure... I went and got a thermometer/hygrometer with probe in there (he is eyeballing it now lol)... I also replaced both of his UVB tubes with new ones (his original are from when I got him in Sept so I guess they are due). Today he looked a *little* better... I had him...

I FORGOT! Top of his cage is 6 ft... its on an end table so its not on the ground or anything.

One last pic from 2 or 3 days ago... Its from my instagram with a filter but he pretty much looks like that... grayish color...

Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - The species, sex, and age of your chameleon. How long has it been in your care? Ambilobe panther chameleon, blue bar, male, approx 8.5 or 9 months. Have had him since Sept 28 2012. Bought from LLLReptile, shipped overnight fed ex. Handling - How often do you...

Thanks everyone for the replies! I really appreciate it. Going to check out those links now. :)

I probably should have gone and got a thermometer with a probe instead of the IR. I see i have to go shopping again. lol My IR says its 12:1...

Hi all. My panther seems to be on the skinny side. Looks like I can see ribs or indents where the ribs are near his hind legs. He has plenty of crickets in his feeder cup... he gets worms as treats... it just seems like he is eating but not gaining weight from eating. He is getting enough...

Hi all. Got a question. FINALLY got an IR thermometer... I am trying to measure Mathesar's basking area... He loves his bendy Fluker's vine. I cannot seem to get an accurate measure and it reads really low (70s). If i put my hand there, I feel it... so its definitely more than in the 70s...

Mine is still a little scared of me... I have had him for 6 months. He will climb onto my hand (although its SUPER SLOW and my arm gets tired before he can get on me fully). Normally I will give him a worm before i take him out then give him one more after i put him back in. If you can...

Next bulb I get will be a halogen! I know what you are speaking of. I only went back to the infrared bulb due to me thinking it was making him more dull... then again it IS winter time and I also thought that it was a seasonal thing. Thank you both for your responses!!!!!!!!

Hi everyone. When I first got my panther chameleon Sept 2012, I had an Exo Terra 75 watt infrared spot basking bulb (red)... it burned out with 3 months of use (daytime use except for maybe 2 nights in his temp enclosure which was in a cooler location of the house). After that bulb burned...
