Thank you, I really love him but I know he needs more than that. I tried to make it work with my changing schedule but it’s not fair to him.

Thank you, it was a hard decision but I know it’s best. Work has gotten busy and I’m only home right when he wakes up I quickly feed him and he’s asleep by the time I get back. :(

I am very saddened to have to rehome my male ambanja panther chameleon, but I can no longer care for him the way he truly deserves. Unexpected schedule changes and work conflicts make me unable to spend the time on him and his feeders the way I used to and he deserves more time and care than I...

Thank you! It freaked me out at first but now that I know it’s common I’m not as paranoid when it’s a super low load. As long as the vet isn’t worried I’m not either. He had issues with RI which is why they did the parasite treatment the first time just to make sure they didn’t interfere with...

Welcome! I tried a Dubia colony and it freaked me out too much so I gave up on that. 😂 I just order from dubiaroaches.com or joshsfrogs.com now and always get enough so I don’t run out anymore haha. The dubia colony was super easy to start but when they started having lots of babies I realized...

He has a very low load which his vet says is normal for reptiles since they eat bugs and won’t affect his health. I did toss the dishes and disinfected the tongs and all that but I tested him again several months later and he had a low load again. I keep his feeders pretty clean but they don’t...

Thank you!

I did my usual routine taking out all my plants Oh I thought the temperature was hot enough to sanitize not just blow, good to know! I ended up still taking out all my plants and left my branches up and sanitized the enclosure with alcohol let air dry then went over it with the steamer and...

Hi all! I my boyfriend just bought a steam cleaner for cleaning tiles but I see that some people use steam cleaning for their chameleon enclosures. I was wondering how I would go about doing the same with Norbert’s enclosure. Do those of you that steam do it once weekly and just use the steam...

and a few of my own oil pastel paintings I did do myself back in high school 😊

Not my personal drawing but I asked a friend of mine to draw a picture of Norbert for me a while back on his iPad and here it is (and the OG photo)! Planning on making them into stickers 😊

Hello all, I finished Norberts last round of antibiotics the other day. I did a light cage cleaning working around him (took all plants out and washed with soap and cleaned the bottom tray with dawn and wiped branches with water). He wasn’t too keen to come out for a thorough cleaning after all...

Just did his injection with the towel method and it was definitely less stressful for both parties! No biting (not that he didn’t try) and it was very quick and easier to hold him! He can go back to hiding from me the rest of the day now. Just 3 more syringes left. 😊

Yep I try to do it exactly how the vet showed me and try to switch sides so he gets a little break in between. I didn’t know the reasoning for the high placement but I just copied what he did so thank you for explaining! Can’t wait to be done with treatment so I can leave him alone for a while...

Sorry I somehow missed the part you asked what antibiotic. It is ceftazidime, every 72 hours, subcutaneous in the back. Here’s a picture of the vet doing the first injection. He made it look so easy 😅

The vet told me to inject in his back under the skin it’s not in the muscle, not super hard to get to like the arms. I’ve got more area to choose from, but he doesn’t like to stay still so still difficult. We did catch his RI early so he never got super weak just a bit sluggish and lost his...

@Mendez @kinyonga Thank you both! Next dose is tomorrow and I’ve been dreading it because he hates it so much. The last dose was the first time I’ve ever heard him hiss too, he didn’t hiss with the first couple so I know he’s getting more angry each time. And he squirms sooo bad, I’m too scared...

My boyfriend helps while I hold him, but I think the additional person in the room makes him feel more threatened. He’s also getting his energy back and doesn’t mind letting us know. It was easier when he was more lethargic but since he’s getting better he’s been harder to handle. Not...

Just an update. My little guy seems to be getting his appetite back and getting some colors back. His urates have looked fine also. He still hasn’t shed so I’m not sure when to expect that. I got his silkworms in the mail today and he LOVED them thank you @MissSkittles for the links! He has...

Thank you for the suggestions! I will implement them ASAP 👍🏼
