-How big is the cage? -What are you using for UVB? -4 intervals at 30 seconds isnt very long. Try maybe 2 sessions, minute or two in the morning and 1 30 second to 1 minute in the late afternoon/early evening (a couple hours before lights out). That will give him a better chance to drink...

Well unfortunately over the night she passed away. She actually seemed to do a little better yesterday so it was kind of a let down to find her gone this morning. Thank you again to everyone on CF for your help and input.

She'll be at the vet this coming monday. The 2 closest vets that have cham experience are 1 1/2 and 2 hours away from us and Monday is the soonest we have time to take her to either. We were just curious of things we could do for her between now and then. Thanks everyone for your input so far.

I will get one of those two tomorrow first thing. Where is the best place to find it?

Well we've looked at it :D , but should we be doing something about it before we go to the vet next week?

Yes, she is getting a daily warm shower for around 20 mins each time. We have been avid readers of the MD site since we got our first almost a year ago. Since we got her we have cleaned her tail daily and applied Polysporin (with no pain reliever). Should we apply the polysporin to the sore on...

So our current Mellers Joy is doing good these days, but thru chance we heard that a friend of a friend of a friend (etc) Had a Meller's but could no longer take care of it and it has a few health issues. We dont have a lot of spare $$ for huge vet bills, but we are going to take her in for one...

Chelsea and I are down for a meeting. We live up in NE Florida in St Augustine. We run a state-wide car club and have a large annual meeting in Orlando every year. Orlando is great bc there is plenty to do, plenty to eat, and lots of places to stay on the cheap.

I just picked up about 500 silk eggs from Coastal (they are local enough for me to drive to his house and just get them, woohoo no shipping :D ) So I'll have some in a couple weeks. Im thinking this is going to be the way to go for silks now. Its really hard to find consistant sourcing for them.

Yup, we got a HabbaMist, used it for a couple of days and were very unsatisfied with it. We are currently saving for a mistking that will be installed into our new enclosure we are building. Or check out the DIY automist system you can build for under $100 from home depot. The thread is a around...

I had read some where about Clorox Green Works all purpose cleaner is a good. No toxic, plant based. I'm waiting to get some more feedback on it before I use it though.

Yeah she wanted to stay on the warm laptop, so when I moved her over a little to type she gave me a look and spotted up haha. I put her back on her favorite perch and gave her a super, I think she forgave me after that :D Fear... yeah i've seem some of the reptile smut on here. I'll have to...

A lot of the times during the day I leave Joy's enclosure door open and she likes to go in and out of it and hang out on the very top of the enclosure. A couple times she has made it down to the ground and explores a little. So today I went to make some lunch and she was hanging out in the...

Coastal should have some in a week or so after I talked to John on the phone.

I'm interested to see your feeding/supplement schedule. Im hoping you arent giving him all of the supplements every day, as that could have some adverse effects on your little guy.

I just picked up a digital thermometer/hygrometer at WalMart for $12 on sale. Has an indoor temp and a probe for "outdoor" temp and humidity. So far its working great. I plan on buying a couple more tomorrow for my other two enclosures.

Did you ever have a fecal done? It could have been worms or parasites that were inhibiting proper digestion. She could have been eating and drinking but not able to absorb any nutrients. But I agree with above, it looks more like vomit.

I believe looking at the pics that it is sitting in front of a window. Now regarding color I have no idea, theres no red near either of our two chams. I too would like to find a reliable and affordable thermometer/hygrometer?

Well I know the options of feeders, but back to my question. Do you raise/hatch your own, or do you just buy as you go/need?

I checked the east coast site last week and called the guy. I used to literally live 6 houses down from him when we lived in Jacksonville. FIgures we wait to buy chameleons until after we moved to St Augustine :D Now that you mention the HW's though I remembered he did have a few left, he was...
