I woke up this morning to find my little girl hanging upside down from a vine by her tail... She was only a few weeks old, eating crickets and drinking water. I honestly don't know what happened... She ate 3 crickets yesterday and when I went to bed she was asleep. And now she's gone :( she had the right amount of light and heat and UVB and maybe chameleons just aren't my thing and I should stick to geckos. But rest in peace, my little baby.

I am so sorry you lost your little chameleon. If you fill out the ask for help form in the health clinic maybe we can help you figure out why. Sometimes you can do everything right and things still happen. I would not give up on owning one. As long as you are providing the right set up, they usually will thrive. There is a chance she came ill with maybe a parasite or something, although they will usually show signs of this at some point before they would die. Babies are a little trickier to keep also, and two weeks is very young. I am surprised someone sold her that young to you. Again, I am sorry.

I will try to figure out how to fill it out. Thank you :(
 
sorry you lost your little girl - as Carol said, that is very young - but don't give up - maybe when you get another , get one a bit older - babies sometimes seem to die for no reason at all - and its so easy to blame yourself, but don't - and also as Carol said ( she is a smart cookie ;) ) fill out the help form, and if there happened to be any husbandry mistakes, you will be able to pin point what you need to improve, but as stated, that was a very young baby for someone to sell you - hang in there, dont blame yourself, or give up :)
