    Pseudomonas aeringuosa – HELP!

    Can you help me? My 2 year-old veiled male was diagnosed very early stage stomatitis and treated with baytril. This didn’t help and we took a sample from his mouth. Lab test result was Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a very tricky one to get rid of. Now his mouth has been washed with gentamicin solution...

    Tarsal spur injury

    There's something wrong with a tarsal spur of my veiled male. The other one is bulgy, nice and pinkish, but the other one is dark (brown&grey) and it seems like the tip of it might be missing. The cham is active and uses his both hind legs. I took some pics yesterday morning and based on those...

    When should I worry about cham falling?

    I have a healthy looking young male yemen chameleon, whose limbs are straight, casque too, he is growing fast, feces look fine and so on. He has a very good grip if he wants to, but on my hand he sometimes seems to relax his toes a bit and not squeeze a lot. He has 2 x ReptiSun 5.0 + proper...

    Colour worship

    My 6-month-old veiled got scared of a stick I was holding and showed these amazing colours. Poor baby, but what a sight! I just had to take a quick pic before rescuing him to his enclosure. I luckily havent seen him this scared for ages so these colours were a surprise to me too. Nowadays...

    There's something on veiled's lip

    Our veiled shed on friday and yesterday we noticed a brown little bread-crumb-like pimple on his upper lip. At first I thought it was a piece of a cricket I just fed him, but it didn't come off on its own. I tried to touch it with my fingertip and get it off, but no success. What could it be...

    How much to give to a young veiled?

    I have a 5-month-old veiled chameleon, been with me for a week now. I've tried to do my research on everything beforehand, but there are a lot of different opinions about certain things, and I dont know who to believe. Some people say that f.ex. 5 medium crickets + mixed salad is enough for a...

    Our first not-so-humble calyptratus terrarium

    Here's my first almost completely self-made cham terrarium for northern european needs. I think it's finally ready, but please tell if something still needs to be done! We have cold winters here, so we used mesh only for the ceiling. The terrarium is 200 cm = 78.7 in high, 140 cm = 55 in wide...

    Bird cage for balcony basking?

    I was wondering about buying a cheap, relatively large bird cage for my veiled (don't have him yet, though). I have an indoor enclosure already, but I was thinking that I'd love my cham to get some fresh air and sun in the summertime at my balcony. Could he bask and hang out safely in a bird...
