Its been about a month since I have posted any Louie pics. He shed 2 weeks ago but my camera wasnt working(soooo mad :mad:). But hes showing some cool colors. He is right around 10 1/2 months.
Well I know hes not a cham but I figured I would share my newest addition. Its my new uromastyx named styx. He is a 4 month old CB golden uro. Hope you guys like:D
About two weeks ago my dubias arrived. Ive left them alone for two weeks but i did try and feed Louie one last week and he didnt want any part of it. Kinda had me worried that he wasnt going to eat them and I would be stuck with a closet full of roaches. Well while feeding the last of his...
Well my dubias arrived today. I cant say i was thrilled, on one hand i had a new project of getting a colony going and having a new staple for Louie but on the other they still sent a shiver down my back when i opened the box. for some reason the females dont really bother me but the males still...
I think that King Louie might have a URI. He gapes sometimes in the AM and his temps aren't that hot(basking spot is about 85). Also it sounds like he hisses when he is out of the cage but he doesn't puff up or anything to show that he was stressed/angry. I havnt been able to get a pic but I...
Well today i finally got King Louie a real plant. Its an umbrella plant. The poor guy has had to deal with fake stuff for a month so on my way home from work i picked this up and moved the cage around, mostly just the vines. Hopefully this will give him more places to hide.
Chillin on his...
Last week I bought a silkworm pod. The chow from the top broke and fell on the worms. There were no casualties but I did have to move them to my cricket cage (no crickets inside). So I scooped out all of the chow and the plastic thing and put it in the cage with the worms. My issue is I am...
Well its starting to get cold here in NH so wont be getting outside for pics for a while. so it was a nice 60+ day so Louie and I snuck outside with the camera. He didnt really like getting his picture taken he kept turning upside down to get away from the lens so i got to lay on the ground and...
Well I am super impatient so when I went to turn off Louies light for the night I figured I would see if he wanted a quick snack. First I tried a waxwork and he wasn't feeling it. As I go to put my container of waxies away I knocked over the container of supers. As soon as he heard the oats and...
So tried to hand feed King Louie today with no luck. However he is getting more trusting. If I put a worm on a vine near him he will immediatly snatch it up. So he's not completely afraid of me where be runs away but not quite trusting enough to take from my hand. Hopefully he will keep making...
so I was just checking up ony 9 month old panther and noticed his eyes are a little sunken in. This Is only when he's asleep when he is awake he is alert and eyes looking good. I might just be paranoid but I just wanted to see if they relax their eyes or something when sleeping or if it Is a...
so King Louies new thing when he comes out of the cage is to quickly run up my arm perch himself on my shoulder and lick my plugs In my ears. He's done it twice now the first time he did it I freaked cause I thought he was trying going to bite my earlobe. He's been a little bastard the last week...
So I just got home with some superworms and decided to hook king louie up with 2. As soon as I put his feeder bowl in he darted for it and shot one before I could even shut the cage. I look up to see louie with what looks like a smirk on his face and half of the huge superworm sticking out. I...
King Louie ate from a cup in my hand for the first time today. Pretty excited about it because yesterday he wanted nothing to do with it. Hopefully in a few weeks he will be eating out of my hand=).
So last night on my way up to bed i tripped on some wieghts on the floor and smashed my face on the end of the bed. I snapped on the lights to try and figure out what happened. i look over at King Louie's cage and see a very angry chameleon.
So I was wondering about chameleons and their coloring and from what I read they get bright(fired up) when they are angry or stressed. King louie tends to get his brightest(besides when he fires up all the way) when he's sleeping. its not really a concern I was just wondering if anyone else has...
Just looking for some tips on hand feeding. I've only had him for a week so I don't expect him to start immediately. But he has warmed up a lot with interaction. He no longer runs and hides when I open the cage. It seems like his favorite snack right now is pheonix worms. So any tips or advice...
