    May be in need of another vet visit

    Thank you! I don't have any liquid calcium and I don't know if I'll be able to get any before I go away, but I did pick up some Repta-boost. If I have time, do you know where I'd be able to pick up the liquid calcium? I will defiantly let Fred have some time in the sun after it starts to shine...

    May be in need of another vet visit

    I think I've found a better vet in my area, and I share your optimism when it comes to getting Fred a better vet. I do get worried about him, and unfortunately the decision to take him to the vet is not all mine. I can't drive there or pay for it by myself. Fortunately my parents are starting to...

    May be in need of another vet visit

    I appreciate all the help I get here on the forums. I understand why that advice was given. I've since made a revision which was made with better use of my communication skills. I had to make my last post between classes, while on a lunch break, in the middle of three different phone calls to...

    May be in need of another vet visit

    I went to my local pet shop and picked up some hornworms for hydration and superworms for some extra fiber. I will offer them tommrow though he didn't like them very much the last time they were offered. I think he was just intimated by their size though, so I got some smaller ones this time...

    May be in need of another vet visit

    I took Fred to the vet last time as suggested, and his situation was not as severe as it seemed. The vet looked at him and told me he was absolutely fine, that my husbandry looks great, and the only thing I need to fix is my lighting (which I had previously suspected). My takeaway is that the...

    This is likely the result of my poor lighting in the past. This may have caused him to have indigestion but he only gets bugs, that's it.

    May be in need of another vet visit

    I meant that it was suggested that I take him to the vet, but the way people were responding to the forum made it seem like his condition was critical and his situation was an emergency. It can be a little bit overwhelming for a first time reptile owner to see panic in responses and to be told...

    May be in need of another vet visit

    I took Fred to the vet last time, as you guys suggested, and he didn't have days left to live. The vet looked at him and told me he was absolutely fine, that my husbandry looks great and the only thing I need to fix is my lighting (which I already suspected). I didn't do a fecal but I know for a...

    Not sure what to do for him

    It's good to know he's not dehydrated, I thought he might be. He actually gets misted 5 times a day, and his dripper was broken which means he didn't have access to a constant source of water all of the time. His eyes are sunken in a bit, but this might just be due to the parasites if he has...

    Not sure what to do for him

    Problems: Dehydration, Sunken eyes, Wrinkles in skin, increased aggression/bad mood, diarrhea, loss of appetite Keep in mind: For the last couple of weeks he's been a darker color, but remains active. He's been screen climbing and has shown an unusual amount of aggression when approached. He's...

    ACCIDENTLY HURT HIM!!!

    He was born September 1st so he's 4 and a half months old now. He gets fed 6 crickets a day at 10:00am and if I have any "snacks" I feed those at 4:00pm if there is no "snacks" like worms or something to that effect I will give 2-3 crickets.

    ACCIDENTLY HURT HIM!!!

    I put his plant in a plastic bin and placed him in the front of the tub, the showerhead was all the way in the back of the tub so he did not get wet (glad he avoided the chlorine exposure). His skin has shed fairly fast and I think he's almost done, He has lingering shed on his feet, a tiny spot...

    ACCIDENTLY HURT HIM!!!

    Today was Fred's first shed and I think I hurt him really badly. I put him in his money tree and took him to my bathroom so he could have a "steam" so he could shed easier. While I was about to take him back I noticed that he had a large piece of shed directly over his eyeball hanging down...

    Panther breeders - suggestions??

    I was wondering the same thing initially, but unfortunately you can't select a specific baby. They do however keep all of their babies in separate enclosures so they have the opportunity to really "get to know" all of the chameleons in their care and observe what kind of personality they have so...

    Panther breeders - suggestions??

    The only thing is that they do not provide pictures along the way, however they do have pictures of all the parents, and their clutches sellout quickly because they do offer a pre-order option. They ship out on the date they have disclosed but they are very thoughtful so if you are still waiting...

    Panther breeders - suggestions??

    I got Fred from chromatic chameleons and he arrived with beautiful colors, and in excellent health. They provide overnight shipping and they won't hesitate to pickup calls with concerns about anything you might need help with no matter how long ago you purchased from them...

    Cricket odor

    For like a week I had my crickets kept in a shoe box size cardboard box with an egg carton and they don't smell at all. They have no substrate either which I read can add to their odor. I feel bad keeping them in such a small space so I'm putting them in a large plastic bin. I have no I idea if...
