I was devastated to read this first thing this morning. A tragic loss of a young, healthy chameleon. What you are describing sounds like there is no doubt that he tried to eat a bee or spider and encountered toxins. The biting the tongue would be from pain or numbness. We always want to...

You responded with compassion so you have nothing to feel bad about. Please don't blame yourself and hang in there.

Sounds like your meter already paid off!

We are pulling for him!

It is crazy how much peace of mind it can give. Worth it just for that alone.

Pick them up off him with some clear tape. Then you can properly take a picture and blow it up to see if it is actually a bug. Could just be dirt or something.

I was hired to write an article on the need for UV lighting in birds by Harrison's Bird Foods. A good deal of the information is directly applicable to reptiles and chameleons so I wanted to share it here. Of course chams don't have preen glands but they process UVB similarly. In fact, the...

Mine did, although I think it is sort of modular and you can get whatever features you want. Dale had the automation stuff (Mist King, etc.) attached inside the cabinet in the back to make everything very clean.

Did I miss the drawing for 2023's calendar purchasers? Was there a winner?

This one roots better in damp sand- lots of light

This is progress! The fogging at night should really make a difference over a few days. Every time he breathes out he loses water-when he breathes in fog at night, it is replenished.

Did they interpret these for you? is that largest organ liver and if so, is it normal size?

I am sorry if I missed this but did he give fluids? The single most important thing with any animal. Definitely more so since he is dehydrated.

Yeah and so does the industrial weight velcro. Because of the constant humidity there is not much that holds it other than stainless steel screws which I ended up using.

I have a 4' tall x 4' wide. T he side screen openings start 14" up from the bottom. So we are not talking about the bottom half, only the bottom third. And because the plants are elevated on bars 4" up from the floor it is really only 10". I have literally never seen my cham anywhere near...

Those eyes look like he means business

I see results but not reference ranges, Was there anything else on the report?

Good!!!

I feel like UVB is so important that brief times (30 minutes?) in those temps are no problem IF it is strongly sunny. Their body will absorb sun and you can literally feel them and they are very warm. However, they will usually turn dark to absorb more of the rays, so probably won't do great...
