    Texas - Chameleon is Sick, Vets closed/booked solid

    Hello, I live in Texas and was without dependable power/water for a week. Despite my best efforts to keep my cham in stable conditions it seems that he's ended up with a respiratory infection.

    Have you rescued before? Give me tips

    Hi all. I've had leopard geckos for years. This past week I was contacted by someone looking to offload a 5 month old Veiled Chameleon. I've always wanted one, and now that I own a home I've got the space, so I agreed. It was free and the person giving it away was...less than experienced when it...

    Dehydrated Rescue Won't Open Eyes

    Hi - first time posting. I received a 5 month old veiled cham 7 hours ago. He underwent a 3 hour drive and was incredibly stressed when we got him (snapping etc.) He is severely dehydrated and skinny. I've had a constant mist running since we got him and he drank a LOT. He's drank for about an...
