Thanks! He’s about one and a half years old now.

Hey everyone! I haven’t posted here in a while and wanted to share some pictures of how my chameleon is doing with you. :) First one is right after a shed and he got all flared up, honestly probably one of the best photos in my whole photo collection.

Yesterday I bought crickets because dubias aren’t really working in the feeder run cup since they don’t move a lot. He always picks off superworms and lateralis roaches and everything that moves a little more. Was wondering if crickets tend to escape or do they jump just when in danger and is it...

I got this bromeliad today to add to my bioactive build and just wanna check if it’s safe.

No. I’m gonna arrange the branch that’s still in wrappers and Just the background is going inside th cage with no wrappers or any extra stuff that came with it.

I didn’t make the background myself. I bought it from a guy who keeps chameleons and other reptiles and uses similar backgrounds in their enclosures also. I’m not sure what kind of moss that is, but I’m sure that everything is 100% safe (if that’s your concern) since he seemed knowledgeable and...

What do you mean what miss?

Update time! I have finally made the soil mix (SerpaDesign exotic substrate mix) after everything was delivered. Planted the scheffleras and a pothos and added some bamboo branches. Planning to add a bromeliad aswell to get some more colors in there. Took one whole day, but got it set up...

I’m gonna do my take here which won’t necessarily be true and many people that commented already know a lot more about chameleons than I do. I’m having a similar problem, my panther is about 8.5 months old now and hasn’t done much growing (like @Ares05 mentioned) and I stressed out like crazy...

Ambilobe would be my guess, since my male is ambilobe and has shown colors nearly identical to your cham’s colors

As for leaf litter, so basically anything pesticide free should be safe? And I’ve been thinking about cyberlocc’s suggestion about putting a worm or two in the mix so I would have dwarf isopods, worms and springtails. And for the soil I’ll go with the serpa design mix cyberlocc linked because it...

I’ll try to find as many additions you recommended as I can. Thanks a lot for helping me out on all of my posts :).

There aren’t any bigger ones, only the dwarf ones. I can get all the material needed for the blend and what do you mean by adding some bark to the blend? He does add bark in the mixture. I’ll try to find a good fertilizer in the home depot in my town.

Yeah they aren’t banned I just couldn’t find them available for purchase, but I did a little more research and I found a site I can order them from. They are selling dwarf isopodes, but doesn’t say how many are in 1 package. I’m thinking about getting 2 packages. So I need to get an organic...

I can’t get another cage because I would have an empty cage after establishing bioactive. As much as I want another chameleon, I just don’t have enough time to care for 2. That’s why I think the planter box is a pretty good solution. I would basically mimic the conditions in the cage after I...

So I’m 100% sure about going bioactive because it is the best option for my chameleon. I’ve drawn some sketches of how everything will look like. There will be a slight slope to the drainage holes on the bottom of the box also. The plants I have for now are 2 schefflera arboricola and 1 golden...

just gave him the first dose of 40mg/kg panacur today. Snuck it in his mouth while he was biting down on a superworm. I’m gonna give him 1 more dose tomorrow and 1 in 2 days and gonna do another fecal then.

Ooh those look pretty nice. Good job! And I don’t think he doesn’t want food, I mean he could eat. It really depends on the day for him and he is really shy/territorial. I would really like just leaving his food in the cage so he can free range, but I can’t monitor how much he’s eaten and I’m...

I would, but BSFL can climb vertically on their own and they climb all the time in their plastic container so they’ll get out of the feeder run cup I think.

It’s not sticky on that side. And yeah he’s a pretty picky eater.
