After taking my chameleon Arlo to the vet on Saturday he seems like he is getting weaker and stopped hunting crickets since he started taking the parasite medication and carnivore care that was prescribed to him. Could it be because of the stress from being force fed and getting lab work done at...

Is it okay for a chameleon to just swallow a cricket without chewing or should I be concerned?

My chameleon has been sleeping more than usual so I took him to a vet last Sunday because I was worried about him and that vet examined him and told me that he was perfectly healthy just cold so I changed the heat lamp bulb to a higher wattage and he seemed more active but I wanted/needed...

This morning Arlo's lights came on and then shorted. So apparently I need to get new fixtures but I was wondering how long he can go without UVB light since I don't get paid until next Friday. My dad has an extra heat lamp fixture; luckily. Will he be okay without his heat lamp for 24hours?

My chameleon is about 11 months and normally eats about 10 crickets every other day but this last week he didn't seem interested in crickets. I gave him a hornworm today instead, he loved it. Is it normal for chameleons to get bored of their food? I've been giving him superworms and hornworms...

Austin, Texas is currently under a boil warning because of contaminated water but I was wondering if I should boil water before putting reptisafe in it or buy distilled/purified water for the mister until the water is safe again.

Tomorrow I know I am going to be an emotional wreck. I am taking Reptar to be cremated tomorrow which makes it so much more real that she's gone.

Yesterday I cleaned out my chameleon cage in preparation to have an empty cage for a while. Last night my sister got me a beautiful baby boy chameleon that I named chomper. The cage i have is 24x24x48. Has only fake plants and branches. I love in Austin, Texas so the humidity is always between...

My sister got me a new chameleon since I lost my baby girl because she became egg bound and I couldn't get her to the vet. My question is are male veiled chameleons any different to care for than females?

Today is the first time in the 2 years that I have had my chameleon that I had to make a vet appointment for. She didn' eat at all while I was away this weekend and I woke up to her sleeping on the bottom of her cage. Im worried that she laid 58 eggs but there may be more in there and its...

I was wondering how big my chameleon should be before I give her full size horn worms. She is only about 5 months and I was thinking she was too little for a worm that big. Any suggestions since they grow too fast even though they are breeding.

Can a chameleon eat isopods?

Faire season starts in a couple weeks so on the weekends I camp out for a couple nights and I was wondering if I feed her on Friday and put extra crickets and worms in the feeder cup would that be sufficient until I get back on Sunday morning.

I was looking into buying a mistking starter system for my habitat. I have a few questions though. Is it worth the money, I've gone through 3 misting systems already, the first ones only leaked all over my floor and the other just makes weird bubbling sounds now. Is it simple to put together...

My female seems to have become aggressive all of a sudden. I haven't changed anything in the way of caring for her, she seems restless and a little wider than she was yesterday so I opened the laying bin. She seems to be displaying grayish bars of coloring and she hisses at me when I open the...

I was thinking of buying the little piggy snack pack and some dubias from mulberry farms.Should I still feed her crickets along with dubias for variety or would it be better to switch her main feeder completely? Any recommendations are helpful.

What do you guys use to hold up vines in a screen enclosure? Suction cups won't work with the screen and I can't figure out what else to use. Would command strips or floral wire work?

Is it normal for the hygrometer to read between 10-20% near the heat lamp and 40-60% away from it? Or does this mean that my hygrometer is wrong?

How do I keep my chameleon from climbing on the screen lid of her cage? I am afraid she'll burn herself when I am not home. Is there anyway to be sure that she won't burn herself?

I am going to get a larger habitat for my little girl so that I can have a laying bin soon. Should I keep the laying bin in the habitat always? Should I worry that she will eat the top soil? Do I need to have a feeding cup or will she still be able to hunt like she prefers? Also, will having a...
