So my xl terrariums arrived. Debating on fake or live plants. However I’m aware of the dangers associated with fake plants. However I see a lot of people using them and telling other not to. I’ve searched for reported cases on the forums of chams being impacted and found nothing. While this...
Thank you so much for the kind words . They (vet ) wants me to shower them for 30 minutes multiple times a day , to make sure they are geting enough water while being treated foe parasites in addition to regular misting. I Pre fill my medicine syringe and I take a shot glass and put some water...
Went back to vet again this morning and we have gentamiacin eye drops for both eyes. Not the eye in the photo , the opposite eye has an area of loose skin that puffs up during waiting and soaking them she wiggles it around and try’s to clean it out herself . From the previous publications and...
One thing I’ve noticed “I blame Facebook idiots” is that you have to note every photo of anything in a haphazard way otherwise risk ridicule. It sucks. However chams are cute little lizzard monkeys who get themselves in precarious circumstances, some cute and some because of bad husbandry.
I know about the bin , but it’s a no no unless she needs it which will be soon given her coloring , I know I need to add to my gut load. Just what’s in the bin now. My online fan is just a fancy ac thermostat probe with humidity scensor and it’s sensitive. I use that ( have to move it around )...
I knew 10 years ago I saw them doing weird stuf and vibrating the branches ever so slightly but I could t get it on film. One of 2 free roaming panthers , the leaves infront of him would sometimes move in an odd way that could only be heard because of the way the silk ficus rustled. Usually...
They start to eat them around sexual maturity as their nutritional needs change. Which is why some chams have slightly different husbandry. But you want to provide different structures for them to grab and rest on ,for proper “paw” growth and formation , when you go to the gym you don’t just...
I’ve had Mellers and loved her she was massive and amazing. Eats a lot. Needs a 4x2x6 minimally as an adult. 1inch hardware cloth frame is what my girl was in but I took her to a greenhouse in Orlando 10 years ago to breed with a male as I reached her from someone who couldn’t keep her . At that...
That’s what I took her to the vet for. I planned on taking all 3 In two weeks . So her eye had a tiny bit of stuck shed or bug juice I thought on the edge of her eye. The next day it had folded over and touched her whole turret opening. I have a loupe and couldn’t seen it well enough to gauge...
Your Chameleon - 3- 1 male Cap Est juvenile , 1 female panther specific local unknown age 1.5 was told these 2 in my care for 4 days . 1 male panther was told either Ambilobe or ambanja (rolls eyes) how to tell the difference ? He’s a juvenile had him almost 3 weeks.
Handling - handled at...
So flex seal for the win , not sticky seals it allow the water to bead up on it. And gives it better texture. Hot glue gun works better at mounting branches to the screen as I found out screen rips easily it’s easier to dislodge the glue. And I scored on plastic hard plants as garlands for...
For spot cleaning Ive always used diluted simple green pro hd 3. Takes care of parvo and everything else. When I deep clean I use peroxide in a spray bottle till everything is dripping and I hose it down.
I went after those as you can sometimes find them in different circumstances. No luck in either store. So I got oak dowels better weight barring so if the poop on the perch and can swap it out vs clean it.
Now I’ve been to Lowe’s and Home Depot. All the sealants would allow the wood to discolor naturally so it protects the wood but doesn’t actually seal it from being porous, I’m doing polyurethane. I do have flex seal clear that as seen on tv stuff so I’m going to try it. I’m going to tack...
I read everyone’s till I went to sleep. Everyone has basically the same scenario, so for those Of you that have special licenses permits etc to truly study etc these animals and how they react etc to changes in their environment...now that ima wake ....
With a snake you can have them in a...
It’s veiled and oustlets from what I’ve heard and no one says anything but you do see the horribly treated ones in the pet stores. Just the Veilds though.
Obtained 2 chams that had lived outside . Vet diagnosis is coccidia. Remove all living and porous accessories. Bare minimal needed to feel secure and have gradient. If it gets poop in it toss it. Cleaning it only spreads the bacteria around more so minimal decor , lots of sanatizing. So my...
He’s beautiful. Reminds me of a garden gnome in the best way. Instead of a red cone hat he’s got red cone eyes and a red beard. Instead of a pipe he’d be sucking on a glow bug haha!!!
