I’ve had my male veiled cham (Silly) for nearly 4 years, and he was the best boy. For the past week he’s been eating less and being less active but drinking normally. Today I took him to the vet and apparently he only started showing signs of liver disease yesterday, and he is on his way out...

My cham has an annual check up at the vet soon and I just wanted to make this post to bring light to the fact that because of covid 19 and all that going on apparently I have to sit in my car and let the vet take him in, without me; A car ride would stress him out enough, and last time he ever...

I just had a quick question for hydration reasons, the only way Silly will drink is if I hold up my hand held mister near him and if he wants water he’ll push his mouth against it and open/close his mouth. This worked well for a while but I’ve been thinking of some other methods. I do mist his...

Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Male veiled chameleon, he is 6 or 7 months old, I've had him since Feb this year. Handling - Rarley. Feeding - I feed him crickets, rarley hornworms, and some super worms. I feed the feeders carrots, mango, and hibiscus. Supplements - I use D3 once every 2 weeks...

So my veiled chameleon has always had a strong grip even from the day I got him, but for a couple weeks now as he has been slowly growing I notice his little sharp nails are getting more and more painful on my skin while I handle him. When he sees my dogs he'll tighten his grip even more but I...

So during a free rang feeding of two crickets for Silly just now, (I always watch him eat to make sure he eats them all so none escape or bite him), and he shot his tongue out at this medium sized cricket. He landed his tongue but I guess Silly scared the sh** out of the cricket because as soon...

Silly’s first vet visit went pretty good today :) Other than the fact that he wouldn’t go into the temporary box during the car drive and instead scratched all over my face even when we went inside :) . The vet specializes in exotics and it was a 5 minute drive. He said Silly is very healthy. I...

So I just now noticed my veiled chams most recent poop (by his food bowl) and this is what it looks like... that is the food bowl and a small dead leaf from one plant. He has never been tested for parasites and all his other poops have been normal, dark brown with white urate, but is this...

Not sure if I should fill out the ‘how to ask for help’ forum because this isn’t a big issue, and it doesn’t seem to be bothering my cham at all but ever since his most recent shed (about 3 or 4 weeks ago), there’s these two spots on him where it won’t fall off. A little on his spine and a small...

I came home with some new crickets and as I was dumping them in their container I see Silly climb down to one of his pothos plants, I assume hes eating the leaves but when I walk over he sticks his tongue in the middle of the dirt two times, chews, and swallows. I found small-ish rocks to shove...

I took him out of his enclosure and onto his golden pothos for some sun time! I can’t stop obbsessing over these colors he is showing!:eek: I’ve never seen him have blue dots..?

I am pleased to say that my superworm breeding was a success. I kept them in the container they come in from the store, gave them shredded carrots and I’ve noticed about 4 babies today. Now “100 count” went up to some more. I won’t be needing to buy some worms for a while :) .

I bought a pink hibiscus flower for my Silly two days ago and just now while I was sitting on my bed I see something move from the corner of my eye, I look over, and the bud of a flower is GONE:eek: Silly was on a branch right next to it and I see him chewing it and swallow. He totally took a...

First real day of summer here in Cali and I catch this little guy sun bathing on a rock in his new hibiscus I got just yesterday! :D

So someone told me these are safe How many other plants would be okay? Would a Pachira Money tree be safe? Or a Neathe Bella palm? Here are pics if it helps

So the weirdest thing just happened.. I went to check on my cham and he was perched up on the highest branch, note that he has climbed onto my hand before (at least 3x) and so I opened the door and put my hand flat out, he turned around, he didn’t puff up or hiss, but he tried nibbling on my...

So for the past 3 days I’ve seen a regular tiny black ant here and there but since yesterday it’s gone to a whole new level. I found out that they are kind of living under the potted pothos and umbrella plants (live plants, and I covered the dirt with big river rocks). I don’t know where they’re...

So recently with these medium sized crickets I’ve noticed about 6 of them have died in the past 3 days since I got them. As well as a ton of them are missing limbs, more specifically, their back legs. I don’t know if other crickets are eating their friends legs but I give them food, (a cut piece...

Already gave him 6 crickets and 4 superworms and yet he still acts as though no one ever feeds him

I’ve had my eye on this cham for some months now but before I bring him home from the pet store I’d like to make sure everything is in tip-top shape for my little guy. The terrarium is 12x12x20 and I am out right now looking for the UVB bulb and basking bulb (I have a dual lamp for them at...
