Poor little Petri (7 months) took a small fall and how is back right leg is injured, I can see it bent so I’m 80% sure it is broken and at some angles looks like an extra joint. He is still moving around and walking and can use all the muscles, softly griping my hand, but as he tries to use the...
Another great month with "Petri", he just finished his 3 shedding with me and I would like to know what you guys think of his overall health. He should be between 5-6 months old, and is near 5 inches long from head to body. I'm starting to estimate that they grow about an inch a month, is that...
Hello, yesterday I noticed my little guys pride (casque) has a very slight bend down the top center, like a zig zap or Harry Potter mark. Looking back at older pictures it looks like it started a few weeks ago. I’m not sure if this is a normal and will straighten out as he grows or is it a sign...

I think I’ve developed a new medical condition with no name. For the past few weeks I have found myself eyeing branches everywhere I go. It all started because I've been redoing my chameleon cage, it only has one huge potted plant inside and I felt it was time to create a whole habitat. Last...
Being a new chameleon owner I have found this forum a great source for information and questions. One of my biggest hurdles with owning a young chameleon was getting him to eat, for the first week my chameleon hardly ate from me and never ventured down to the bottom of the cage to find food. I...
