Hey friends, it's been awhile and recently I've noticed Renley's bulge has become rather large and I am unsure of whether or not it's natural or if his vent is actually ballooning due to impacting. He was having trouble expeling sperm plugs from his right hemipene about a month ago but I was...

I was wondering if there was any discussion on here about the paper that came out in March 2015 on the panther chameleons use of photonic crystals to produce a rapid color change. Could anyone shed some light on this topic for me? Is unique to only the panther chameleon species? Does that mean...

So last week Renley fell from his free range and landed in an upright position. I did not fully inspect him after the fall I just brought him back to his cage and watched his movements and he seemed to be alright. Today I was bringing him out to his free range and noticed a bump around his...

I came home today to find Ren in the most awkward position I've seen him in since I've had him. I've attached a picture below. He's been closing his left eye at around 6pm, an hour before his usual bed time. And because he was closing his eye I decided to do a cage cleaning and removed a plant...

So I've got a spider infestation going on outside on my free range. I thought they were spider mites but they are visible by the naked eye... I'm not sure what they are but I tried checking for mites by holding a piece of paper under the tree and shaking a branch. So I did that and out fell a...

About a week ago Rens back left hind leg was swollen but it ended up going back to normal somewhat quickly..and now today I noticed his back right leg looked swollen. I have pictures of both times his legs were swollen. Also I've learned from his behavior that he will close his eyes when he...

Hey guys so Renley's having some problems lately with his hind legs. While moving he will hold on with three limbs but when it comes to placing his last hind leg sometimes he will just hold it over the branch and hover over it as if he doesn't know where the branch is or where to place his foot...

After 16 weeks since his last shed...Renley has FINALLY begun to shed. He also overcame a bacterial infection and pinworms..and he's back to being happy again,therefore its time for pictures!

Hi guys, so my chameleons been to the vet and he seems to be getting better but I've now found undigested crickets under where he's been sleeping for the past two nights now. Quick briefing: He's on day 11 of his meds which is 1mL calcionate 1x a day, 2mL baytril 1x a day and 1ml panacur once...

Hey guys, so today is the third day Renly has not eaten and everytime I show him a cricket he kind of just licks his lips and pumps his throat. I had to take him home to my parents house with me but he still was not eating Two days before this..so I dont know if its just the environmental change...

Okay so this morning my cham dropped a plug but he kept trying to wipe it away even though he already had and it seemed like his vent did not close back together the normal way. So that was probably around 9am and now it is 6pm. So now I caught him trying to pump out another plug but nothing...

So Renly is being a terror today and my girlfriend caught him shooting rocks in the pothos that hangs in his cage. He usually does it to get to the dirt but today he actually brought the rock back to his mouth like it was a cricket or something.. Now.. covering all of the soil for a pothos...

Hey guys, my cham is around 8 months old and has not had a full body shed in at least 6 weeks. He was having eye problems and around 2-3 weeks ago only his left eye shed and nothing else. Ever since he's been looking pretty ghostly but no shed has occurred. He hasn't changed dramatically in size...

Hey guys so I thought Ren's eye went back to normal this morning, but when I got out of the shower this morning and looked at him I noticed his left eye lid folded back on itself. I'll attach a picture of it. I tried giving him a shower this morning and he would get hit by the mist but he would...

Hey guys, after cleaning my chams cage I added two exoterra vines and noticed while washing them off that some of the material would scrape off if you rubbed it hard enough. So now a week later it seems like my cham is having some sort of eye problem. His left eye is a little sunken in and I...

Okay so I have a hibiscus tree that I plan on putting into my chameleons cage, but I have two problems. First, the stem is moldy green and I have no clue how to safely remove it because I doubt it would be a good idea to put a tree with a moldy stem into a wet place like a chameleon cage. And...
