    Chameleon Possibly Dying

    Our Jackson's Chameleon (Wilson) is acting extremely lethargic and is vomiting. Before I get started here is what I think happened: Some malfunction happened with the misting system, so i think he has been severely dehydrated. We were gone for a week and had a friend come by the house once...

    Does Wilson look ok to you?

    Does Wilson look ok to you? He had been doing very well recently but the past few days I noticed he started closing his eyes during the day. So the past few days I've been flushing his eyes with saline, and yesterday I put some terramicin on both eyes. Then this evening when I got home from...

    terramycin

    How do you apply terramycin? My cham has an eye infection and someone recommended that to me, but when I tried to apply it, it was just a big glob and I couldn't get it smoothed out in a thin layer. The gel was really thick. Any suggestions?? Thanks

    Wilson update, not improving

    I've posted about my cham's eyes before, but he hasn't been getting better. Originally just his right eye would close sometimes, but now he has just started closing his left eye too, and I have noticed that in the past few days he has become a lot less active. He used to crawl around a good bit...

    Cham rescues

    A friend of mine participates in this rescue program for dogs. She takes in dogs as foster pets, so that they can be cared for, and if needed, nursed back to health, while they are waiting to be adopted. It's really great, because the dog can have a real family, and get personal attention...

    Size/Age

    I'm trying to get a better idea of how old my jackson male is, since I really have no idea, and the pet shop didn't either. How big are jackson's when they are first born? Mine is currently about 2" from nose to butt, (not including the tail). Anyone with jackson experience able to...

    What are these??

    The other day I bought some crickets at petsmart, and when I got them home there were some other strange bugs in the bag. I can't take a picture of them, but they were gray worm things, with little hairs all over them, and were about 1/4-1/2" long. I've gotten crickets at petsmart before and...

    Crooked horns

    I noticed the other day that Wilson's horns are growing a little crooked. Is this simply a cosmetic thing, or is it a sign of something else, like a nutritional/calcium problem?

    What do you do?

    I've asked a lot of feeding questions so far about how to get my jackson wilson to eat, but I'm still having trouble. I'm trying to get an idea of what is normal for you and your cham, so I can better gauge how well Wilson and I are doing. How often do you feed your cham? What time of...
