I put my male and female chameleons together on October 10 and I believe there was successful mating. For a few days now the female has been digging test holes in several different places so I've stayed away but once when I got close she hissed, which she has NEVER done. I set up a camera...

Hi. I've had my male for about 2 years (rescue off of Craig's List) and gotten him healthy, big and beautiful. I've had my female about a year and a half, bought her from a breeder when she was 3 months old. Yesterday I put the two together and they were both vey happy about it. They...

Hello. I have a male veiled (about 3 years old) and 1.5 years ago I purchased a young female from a reputable breeder. They are and have been in separate cages ever since and I've patiently been waiting for her to lay some infertile eggs so that I could start planning to breed her with the...

A few days ago I received my order of 5 mantis eggs. SURPRISE: one of them hatched today! I ran to the store and got a fruit fly culture but am really confused about lots of things - I really thought I had more time to do my homework and research before they hatched. 1. If they can eat...

I've YouTubed and read a few articles about hatching ooths and some mention hanging them from the top of an enclosure so the mantis can hatch and exit the egg via some strings, but others mention just putting them in their enclosures and letting it happen that way. I'm going to hatch my 5...

I ordered and received 5 of the North Carolina species and now am trying to figure out what to do with them. I would like to put one or two in each chameleon cage and then put the rest in individual containers and possibly give them to friends and relatives for their garden. Couple of...

I searched and read a lot of posts about the Katchy for gnats and just received mine in the mail. I had assumed that I would keep it in the bottom of the chameleon cages (would rotate it from one cage to another each night but then realized I probably can't do that with a mister going off a...

This is Bonnie (since my male is named Clyde) that I got from Fram's Chams 9 days ago. She was between 3-4 months old when I picked her up and I know it's possible but it's really kinda early for her to be having eggs, isn't it? The only reason I'm suspicious is because this morning I saw...

My rescue male veiled was a bit overweight when I got him so I put him on a diet. He went from 105 gr. to 99 grams. Now he looks skinny to me. Does this look like a good weight or did I go too far with his diet? (Wish I could be as diligent with MY diets!) Sue

Hi. . I am at a family gathering and they are trying to get rid of some plants, one of them is a Sabal palm looks like a pineapple on the bottom. Can’t find any info as to whether or not this is safe. Help please?

I have no idea if this is the right section of the forum to write a review so, mods, please feel fee to move it or delete it if it's not. But I just had the most incredible chameleon purchasing experience I could have ever hoped for: the seller was Fram's Chams. I had heard good things...

As a recap, I purchased a female veiled from Petco on January 31. 30 days later I took her back stating that I saw mucous on her branch and she seemed lethargic, low appetite, and closing her eyes during the day. Supposedly they brought her to their vet the next day and she was sent back with...

I probably don't have to tell you how badly I feel.... my poor guy just fell about 5 feet onto a hardwood floor. I opened his cage door with a roach in my hand to feed him and didn't realize he had one foot on the cage door. When I opened it, I heard him plop to the ground, landing on his...

Today as I was caring for my young female I noticed this ridge along her topside over her rear legs. This has never been there before..... any ideas what this is? Is it a normal part of development or do we have a problem? Sue

Hi. When I rescued this guy a few weeks ago and posted pictures some mentioned that he was overweight. I've been feeding him a lot less since hearing that and today decided to actually weigh him so I could track the results of his dieting. He clocked in at 101 grams (somewhere between 1-2...

I was redecorating one of my chameleon cages today and this bug kept bugging me. I don't know if there is more than one in there or if it was the same one who kept insisting on crawling on me but I have never seen one of these. Is it possibly something that fell out of the food dish and...

Rescued my male adult about a week ago and was told (and agree) he looks overweight. I've actually got him eating from my hand now and I would love to continue working with him to trust me but how do I do that while I have to restrict his food intake? All I've been giving him off my hand is...

Hi Guys. I rescued Clyde (adult male) 5 days ago and have gotten his new cage, lights, branches, etc. set up and moved him in a few minutes ago. Let me know if you see anything that needs to be adjusted/changed. Once he gets acclimated I'll check all the UVB readings again to see what his...

Just checked on my little girl and saw this wet spot on the branch under her. That is not where her dripper is and I did not just mist. It's slimy, like mucous. I don't know if it came from her mouth or nose but I'm guessing this is very bad. URI? Sue

I see this was asked once before but at that time no one had used one of these. Thinking of giving it a shot...
