I got my panther 4 weeks ago. He has been great. Temp, hydration anyway long story short all perfect. But viv was quite empty, we got branches from garden; and soaked them in water and cut all bark off outside; and now he is on the floor asleep, (at correct time he sleeps) I'm panicking have I...
Yea you are right zhusky,
the pet store did just want to sell me him, didn't just give me little information but also wrong info. didn't even tell me about calcium, vitamins, and lots more than is pointless mentioning, good thing is, i have sorted it now, only problem think i bought too many...
Aw he is a good looking guy and unique in his own way,
mine had white in just one nostril but was a little worse than this, actually looked like a flake... i found out it was him getting rid of excess salts in his body.

I've just got my first chameleon too and he is the same breed as yours, and same age. I'm new to it all and getting lots of help from joining here, as the store I got him from gave me lots of wrong information.
Just seen your pics, hes lovely, mine goes like a really light blue/turquoise...
i have a feeling this is going to be wrong, on the box it has a bulb either side, mine only has one bulb. the man told me to place this one at the front of the tank, it fits in neat with my viv. here is a pic of my viv from afar, sorry lights are off as hes sleeping, post the close ups now of...
Okay I will go to Pets at Home tomorrow on my dinner hour. Will they sell storage for the feeders? (trying to get the lingo right ha).
I panicked and have transferred the locusts into a bigger box, i have some fruit should i put some in? theres about 20 of them.
So I buy the calcium and what...
I feel really bad now... like I am not doing enough.I wasn't told about dusting, i don't even know where to get the multivitamins from or calcium or d3. I'm worried now that my cham isn't getting what he needs. :(
Okay...
Sorry now if I ask too many questions.
So... I get a large plastic tub for the locusts, and do they need covering, leaves anything? and inside the tub i can put in the fruit you mentioned? And when you said chams can eat blueberries, apples,? i didn't know this? do i cut them into...
So are hoppers just small locusts? I will get some of them tomorrow, and shall i get more silkworms? what else shall I get?
I don't have a dripping system but the humidity stays in the right zone (around 80) I spray 3 times a day when needed.
ps your attachment didn't work x
Thanks for your reply again,
I read that some chameleons can like being handled though and can be very tame? he seems really happy being handled and i have stroked his back really gently, and he closed his eyes as though he liked it.
I dont handle him constantly.
Im worried now about him...
Hi, I have posted in general discussion as my first post, I am new to here and to having a chameleon!
I got this little fella a few days ago, I didn't realise there was different breeds of chameleon, let alone different types of chameleon within the breed! But I am learning more as I go.
Can...
Aw what a nice first reply/message.
Thank you.
So you thinking around christmas time I might need to upgrade viv?
Do you think I may be able to sell smaller one?
All I will need is a viv isn't it, lamps stay the same don't they?
I read that the bulbs need changing twice a year.
We didn't...
