Hi Guys,
After I put in new soil, after a couple of weeks there are a whole bunch of tiny little flies in the enclosure that definitely come from the soil. I have tried a couple different soils(organic, gardening, vegetable) but I end up with the same problem every time. Is there any kind of soil that I won't have this problem with? The flies are too small for the chameleon to eat so I am sure they pester him. Also, my chameleon has had a couple bouts of having a parasite, could this be from the soil? Even with the river rocks, I've seen him eat some soil through the gaps before...
