Hi everybody,
I am going on vacation next week and I have been wondering how can I make sure my insects will live enough (I´ll be back on Friday). Are there any tricks ?
Thank you.
Hi!
It has been around two months since my female laid eggs and I am wondering, do you guys raise your female´s diet after they lay eggs? If so, how much? I have noticed that my female is quite thin. I am keeping her diet six dusted crickets a day. Ofc with some vegetables/fruit to help...
Hi!
Okay, so my chameleons have weird shed. They first shed head completely, then they move on. That doesn´t matter now.
My male has been shedding for over a 2 weeks now (he is very slow with it) and I noticed he has some shed on his eye, that won´t come off. He has tried scratching it and I...
Hi!
I went to fed my male veiled. My feeder was a medium size Chorthippus parallelus . He ate three smaller ones yesterday, so I thought he was going to be fine. But when I showed him Chorthippus parallelus he suddenly climb lower, head down, opened his mouth as wide he could and began shaking...
Hi!
I am not sure where to put this, so sorry ahead of time!
Now, how to help choking chameleon? What is the safest way to hold cham? How much time do I have?
Thank you!
I just walked into my room and found Zuzka started digging! OMG, I am so nervous! Okay, deep breaths, now... what? I can´t yet ´till she is finished, I might die from stress!
How can I notice right away if she is egg-bound?
Okay, hi!
So, my female is gravid over-month already, she refused food 3 days in row. I am thinking she may be getting ready to lay her eggs, one problem I have is that; she keep scratching her glass door/window (one and only way out of her cage), which inducates she wants out, for a walk or a...
So, I know gravid females are agressive againts male, they will stop eating when it is time to lay eggs and such, but it is normal that my gravid females tries to bite me whenever I try to mist her cage or give her some food? She started to act really territorially (it is the right word?) and I...

So, I start with I did my research, at least 3 weeks before I got my male and female veiled. I have red books, this site, watched YT videos, etc. Thing was, I was the only one who were doing research.
I built two cages for both chams, while my parents got resources and so. They big day finally...
Hello,
so I found out today, that my male veiled prefers to drink from sprayer! I mist his cage by myself and today I got near my male with sprayer, and what do you know! Instead hissing like my female does, my male Míra started running towards water flow and dumped his nose in it. Lol :D

Hi!
My female veiled cham, Zuzka, is grabing herself while climbing. I notice it more and more regularly. Just this day, she grabbed her leg with her tail and she couldn´t move!
She looks otherwise healthy to me. Can this be sign of anything? I thought I once red it can be sign of MBD.
Thanks
Okay, my male veiled cham is acting normal, He´s drinking, has normal poop, basking and so on. Only problem is with him eating. I mean, he eats 4 to 6 crickets every day. Problem is in that I have to show him cricket in front of his face (5 centimetres away) as I hand-feed him. He climbs on my...
Recently I searched for any vet in my area a found out that nearest vet works at least hour and something drive away from where I live. It is really hard to think about. Do you guys have any similar issues? What do you do if cham gets sick?
Hi everybody!
Lately I wanted to hand-feed my female cham so I walked down to cage, grabbed some crickets and I see my cham with wide open mouth just staring at me! I opened cage and then she rushed to nearest branch from me and she still had her mouth open wide! :eek: She, for whatever reason...
