I have a Jackson and she is probably close to 1.5 yrs old as best I can tell and I am learning that the more I learn the more I need to learn.
I guess maybe my post wasn't really very well communicated. I was thinking more along the lines of bragging pics. "This is my chameleon and she is...
Hey guys, I was just outside spraying Miss Celia down and she was digging it and I was simply enjoying watching her enjoy herself when it occurred to me.
"I am learning a lot about how to care for her, but I don't know exactly what "a picture of health" looks like."
I am a very visual...
We have Celia and we had Mike until July, (rip girl). When we got them we were told they were a male/female pair so.....Mike and Celia from Monsters, Inc because my 2 yrs old LOVED the movie and named them. Since then we found out we had Mikeala and Celia....hahahaa
:eek::D
I feel your pain! I did the same thing yesterday only I had a small bag of 40! Unfortunately mine were singing away under the freezer in the laundry room!!!!
Well, the wild geckos and anoles that live in and around the house will have a nice little free snack! ugghhh....
Elizadolots, can you tell me where? I've called most of the pet stores around here and I have been told that they have nothing else except crickets and mealworms. Thanks for the heads up!
Would love to try superworms but was just informed today at the pet store that we can't have them in HI. Not sure as to whether or not that's true, but man it's hard to find other options than crickets and mealworms. But I did manage to get myself on a waiting list for silk worms and...
I was just at the pet store today asking if they had anything besides crickets and mealworms. The guy told me to feed Celia (Jackson) spiders. Anyone have thoughts on this?
I hate to sound ignorant and lazy (because I know I could look it up), but I will ask the question anyway. What is MBD and is it reversable? Once the cham has it, can you help them recover from it?
Thanks, I thought I had tried there, but would never have asked for a Chameleon Bento! I will call this morning. Thanks.
I'll also try to get her interested in the worms, hopefully that will help her out in diversifying her diet and improving basic health.
Any more suggestions? Thanks a...
So I guess, my last question is:
Since I know those yellow pebbles are undeveloped eggs or "slugs", is there something I should do? Should I worry or be assured that this is just normal and she's fine (with regards to the slugs). Should I be worried or just make the changes in the above...
Really? You live on the Big Island and you have them! Do you know if your store breeds them? I thought about doing that myself, but I'm just not able to. If you could, let me know who your pet store is and I'll call and see if they have any recommendations for me. I am running into a big...
The breeders/farms that I contacted said that they were not able to ship to Hawaii. Quarantine is what I was told. When I clicked on shipping on the websites, it always came up with "No shipping to HI".
From what I can gather, the wild ones eat the cockroaches and other bugs. They live up on...
Laurie, you don't sound awful at all. I'll start misting her during the day and see if that will help out. I will also cut waaaaaaay back on the calcium. Yes, I am using ReptiCalcium withOUT D3. I was told to put a bunch of calcium in the bag and shake the crickets in there. I just got that...
The location gives both sun and shade, she can go into either whenever she wants. So I think that is ok, isn't it?
The dusting is done with a ziplock bag. I put the calcium powder into the bag, about 2 tablespoons at a time, and then put the crickets into the bag. Shack it up so that they...
The white stuff on the bottom of the pots is the calcium powder that gets sprinkled out when I put the crickets into the cage....I put the crickets into a bag and dust them with it, then let them go in the cage.
There is a side view and then a closer shot of the cage with Celia in the pic.

Celia is a female Jackson and we have had her since June of ’09. We were told she was about 6 months old when we got her. Someone was just going to get rid of her and the...
No offense taken! Please, I am about as novice as they come around here. I have taken her to the vet and she said Jackson, but just in case what I think is a Jackson and what may be correct, here is a pic of Celia. I took this when I was taking the pics of the "yellow rocks". She is just...
