His name is Soba because I thought it'd be amusing since his T.hoenheli brother was called Yaki. So Yaki-Soba get it? Lol
He's a Machakos hill jackson. He upgraded into the big cage recently because my T.hoe ended up not making it past this heat wave of 120 in my area. He's very very active...
My light fixture after about a year decdied to die on me recently so I ordered a new one. I use duo fixtures ao that i can have a uvb and a plant growth light. So my fixture came in today and this fixture comes with like a plastic slide in screen that would be pretty cool to have so that water...
Sadly I ended up catching that wonderful covid19 that is floating around. I got hit super bad and was basically bed ridden for almost a whole month. Because of that my boy hadn't gone outside on his tree at all, so now that I'm better I decided to take him out for a bit. He looked pretty happy...
Usually I'd post outside pictures of my boy, but it seems that this year the desert I live in decided to actually be a desert and its been at a constant 100°f-110°f here. So I can't take my little guy outside. So today you get inside pics of him where its nice and cool because of the AC.
I got...
Had him out for a few minutes to explore around my room since he seemed bored after he ended up hunting down every baby mantis in his cage yesterday. He ended up getting curious over a water bottle and went to pick a fight with it. He lost.
So about an hour ago my chameleon did something I never seen it do. It started waving, its arm' well tbh it was more like rotating its left arm like a windmill. Not slow either, he was doing it moderatly fast. I tried searching online for anything about it and nothing popped up. I'll just...
Earlier today I saw a veiled at petco and I for some reason started thinking about the temperature here in washington and the temperture required for veilds. During the winter here temperatures get to like 15 degrees to 30 degrees Fahrenheit. So then I started wondering about how important...
So recently I started using flying feeders for my T-Hoe cham and he loves it. So I want to if its possible to make flying feeders his staple. I am feeding him blue bottle flies since I can use those to get him those good gutloaded nutrients since BBF can be gutloaded. I am also giving him BSF...
Took him out to get some sun today. He usually trys to climb onto my head, but not today he was chilling on my arm the whole time. Maybe it was because he kept staring at a nearby ladybug that was flying around lol.
Usually when I feed my chameleon a hornworm I put it in a dish and he eats it or he eats it directly off of my hand. About 2 days I dropped on of the hornworms in the plant of the enclosure while trying to feed my Chameleon. About an hour ago I while i was misting i noticed the hormworm climbing...
With the area I live in finally warming it up (finally over 50° outside) I thought it'd be nice to let the little guy be outside for a bit. He really really liked this plant for some reason, like I baiscally had to pry him from it after it was time to go back inside lol. He really let his greens...
My chameleon has like a bit of shed on his forehead. It's been there for about a month and a half. Since he's starting up to shed again i thought it'd be a good time to ask about it.
It has not affected him in anyway, but well its just worrying me a bit. Since it is older skin is it okay if i...
So when my little guy falls asleep he changes color. Usually in the day he is basically green and yeal only, but when he falls asleep his whole body is very very yellow with a white or clear head. Are those his "natural" colors?
So my question is, does a chameleons natural colors become visible...
Heya I am finally stepping up on feeding my chameleon. I've had him for 2 months now and I've given him dusted crickets, a few meal worms in week 1, and a few calcium worms in week 1 of month 2. I am wanting to get into gut loading crickets and eventually blue bottle flies, but more on a later...
Some pics of my little dude. Had to clean his cage a few hours ago, so I decided to take some pics while I was at it. It's been about a month now since I've had Yaki. He is a T-Hoe chameleon. He used to run at the sound of me opening the cage, but now he actually climbs on to my hand. Tho he...
So yesterday when I tried to feed my chameleon I noiced that he seemed a bit wobbly (I'll add some vids and pics). I looked into it and well long story short I kind of think he has MBD, but I'm not sure? He's the right size for a T-hoehnelii, doesn't have any messed up limbs, doesn't have his...
