    Veiled Chameleon eye problems?

    I had a similar problem with my Panther, first thing was a trip to the vet and infection was ruled out. Was like conjunctivitis, vet suggested using a Q-tip soaked in saline to remove the film and clean the eye with saline, next was to dab a feeder with fish oil and hand feed one every ten days...

    Mistking reservoir... alternative

    I use a 5 gallon bucket and lid for my Mistking reservoir and distilled water. In the bucket I have a submersible aquarium heater that is adjustable, at its highest setting it keeps the water at 87 degrees. Before using the heater Buddy would run and hide from the mist but now he loves it.

    Vet Recommends Vitamin A

    I've been using a pure fish oil, just dabbing a little on a roach a couple of times a month, it has cleared up the problem I was having with his eye getting a film on it.

    Strange Eye Gunk

    My Panther Buddy has the same problem periodically, had him checked out by the Vet and no infection. She gave me the same advise, rinse with saline solution and dab away the mucus with a wet q-tip. I've noticed that since I raised the humidity the problem has occurred less frequently. As a side...

About this time each year he goes into brumation and doesn't eat or poop for a couple of months, in fact even during normal times he only poops every two to three weeks although he eats and drinks on a regular basis. He was just to theVet for...

    Lets see your drainage systems

    Sorry, forgot to mention I ran a strip of weather stripping along the edges of the plastic bottom to keep feeders from getting under there and dying.

    Lets see your drainage systems

    My repti-Breeze is mounted on a 24" kitchen base cabinet with drawer. I simply put spacers under each corner of the plastic bottom then screwed down the center of the plastic with a washer and wood screw, this created a natural drainage to the center of the bottom. I then drilled holes in a...

    6500k led strips for plants??

    LEDs I use a 24" LED strip rated at 6500 and have great results with my plants. The one I use has 24 LEDs and I mounted it at the top towards the back to give those plants more light. Nice thing about the LEDs is no heat.

    Eye Problem

    Just an update on Buddy's eye. This morning the eye was clouded over again so I took him to the vet. No infection and the eye is normal, the vet said he could have irritated it by rubbing his head (he just started a full body shed). Treatment is just to mist the eye a couple of times a day with...

    Dubia Observation

    I've noticed that when Buddy eats Dubias he will move to a warmer basking spot than he does after eating crickets or worms. Anyone else notice this?

    Who is in Sandy's path?

    Power Outage Good luck to you Chameleon owners north of me. It hasn't been too bad here in VA Beach, flooding and 50mph winds but power has stayed on. I've got an RV to go to if power goes out but Dragon and Panther room here at house has its own generator backup.

    New Enclosure

    Finished the enclosure in preparation for the arrival of my new Panther on Tuesday from Chameleons Northwest. I found a damaged kitchen base cabinet at Lowes for $40 and put a 3/4" plywood top on it. I elevated the enclosure bottom 1/4" at the corners and then secured it to the cabinet top, in...
