Hey guys and gals,
Well I got what I would call a bit of a surprise the other day... A few months ago I built a partitioned cage for both my male and female cams, saves me space to put them in the same cage. Some how my girl (melonia) ended up on tango's side and I noticed a bit mark on her...
Hey guys, I've recently finished my new cage (one piece/2 sections w/divider) and some how my female squeezed under the middle divider and ventured over to the male's (Tango) side.
Looks like they had a little confrontation, as she has a decent bite outline on her veil. Gah, I hope they didn't...
Ok, I've got a reptisun 10.0 fluorescent compact bulb (fits in a regular bulb socket) and it seems really dim, not nearly as bright as my reptisun 5.0, is my bulb bad, or is it supposed to be dim. I understand that even though a light may be dim, they should still be emitting the required...
Hey guys, as some may be aware of from previous posts, I'm camped out in south St. Petersburg Fl., Weathers been real hot and humid, frequent afternoon and evening storms, little breeze unless storms are blow'n.
Have you guys brought your chams (veiled) indoors yet? Has it been too hot outside...
Hey guys,
So with the pics below taken into consideration: My little Melonia still has been developing this white powder around her nostrils. I figured it was supplements, so I cut back. Still noticed it a few days later. I thought it could be water evap residue from the tap, so I began to...
Ok,
So I'm a graduate in environmental studies and biology and happen to be a huge chameleon fan. I'm completely aware of the issues involving international pet trade and invasive exotics in the U.S. particularly Florida.
I respect and appreciate all cham fans, however like many...
Hey guys, and gals :D
How many of you are keeping your chams outside, and what type of cham.
I live in Sout St. Pete and have 2 calyptratus, Male/Female. Currently separated, and I have them on my back patio, They are exposed to natural sunlight from sun up till about 10:30 or so. They are...
Hi guys, I just noticed that my little girl is eating the little white things that come in the potting soil bags. Does any one know that they are? Are they fertilizer bits? Should I be worried? I saw her eat two before I could stop her from eating more...:confused:
Hi guys, I've had my chams for roughly 2.5 months now and both my male and female have shed once. I noticed today that my little boy seems to be sheding on his feet and on the inside of his joints i.e. the pits of his extremities. Below are pics of what I'm talking about, and I was wonder if...
Hey guys, I've heard many thoughts and opinions on the best water for chameleons to drink. Tap, rain, spring, purified, filtered,....:confused:
Whats the best for drinking/misting? Also, I've heard a lot about showering chams for hydration, how exactly is it done. Just as it sounds?> toss...
Hi guys, I've read a few threads regarding white powdery/crusty substance in and around the nostril of chams. Heres a pic, and I'm still wondering what it could be...? Salt excretion, vitamin residue? I know its not a scale, it wasn't there yesterday and I have not fed her any feeders that were...
Hey guys,
I'm new to the forum but not to the Herp world. I've looked around on the forums and looked at some set ups; I'd like any advice on my current practices and husbandry.
For starters, I acquired a breeding pair of Veiled Chameleons from a member (FLchams, Mike rocks) a young...
