Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - Baby brev. About 1 week old.
How long has it been in your care? 1 week
Handling - How often do you handle your chameleon? Never
Feeding - fruitflies everyday as much as they can eat. I'm waiting for my pinhead order to come in.
Supplements - None since they are so young
Watering - Mist the paper towel twice a day
Do you see your chameleon drinking? No
Fecal Description - brown solid with tiny white dot.
Has this chameleon ever been tested for parasites? No
History - None
Cage Info:
Cage Type - Shares a large cricket keeper with one other baby from the same clutch. I keep the cricket keeper in the tank with my adult Pygmy
Lighting - 5.0 linear UVB tube 12 hrs on, 12 hrs off. No heat lamp
Temperature - About 75 degrees. Measured with digital thermometer
Humidity - Humidity stays around 75-85
Plants - Only a few small twigs in the cricket keeper.
Tank is kept on stand about 3 feet off the ground in my bedroom, away from windows and vents
Location - Chicago Illinois
Current Problem - one of my baby pygmys seems to never open one of his eyes. I first noticed it the day after he hatched. I thought maybe it was because he was only a day old, but I have seen no change and I'm afraid it is interfering with his hunting. I tried gently washing it with a wet cotton swab but that didn't seem to do anything but annoy him. Also, he spends a lot of time with his eye pressed against the wall or paper towel. Does anyone know why he might be doing this? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
