So what's the most outrageous thing you've done for your cham....

[Miss Lily]

I have caught poop several times, but not bare handed though, always in a tissue. It saves hooking it out from the branches/leaves where it lands, lol! The only other thing I have done, although not outrageous, it was pretty special is when I had my first girly-cham, Lily. She was so trusting that when she was shedding her eyes and face I would put on a knitted glove, let her climb onto my hand and she would hold onto my thumb with her hands and actually rub her eyes and face on my thumb to remove the shed. She was a pretty cool cham to own, bless her. Amy also did that once too.

Olimpia, who are a wonderful keeper to take such care of poor Charlotte. I think I would do the same for mine if I had to.

Mortimer choked on his own tongue eating once and I actually used a fingertip to reach in and gently flip it back out the right way. Have done it for my husband's bearded dragon too, but she got greedy with her Kale and ate too much at once and choked on it. I had to use little tweezers to gently pull the kale out of her. We call my house "Shawntea's home for special animals".

well camo has no tounge so twice a day everyday i take 2 crickets and place them in a deli cup and put them in the fridge for 3min to slow them down then i take them and cut off thier hopper legs and long anteni, dust them and then stand their holding out the criket for my buddy to come eat, its a bit of a process and has been this way for over a year now.
i also have on a few occasions when one of my guys is eating a worm, the poop from the worm will get squished out and end up on the chams lip, i just wipe it off with my finger as i wouldnt want to eat poop so i figure they dont either, my GF thinks im gross LoL
i have been know to pick up the odd dried up poo, bare handed as well, when it has been dropped in a feeder cup or other undesirable location.

I can't touch poo no matter how dry or small. I'm using a paper towel or gloves NO MATTER WHAT!!!

Seeing as how you are in America, I dont believe that any college fund is going to help your kids at all.

There are plenty of other options for them to pursue to be successful, well rounded human beings.

I would actually recommend teaching them how to live off the grid instead with the way things are going in the world.

So...blow it all on chameleons...and some partying of course.

Snake, you made me laugh...Thank you.

HAHAH! yes live off the grid. im not fan of society in general and they make it quite difficult being successful doing anything you enjoy. fun things are either illegal or not viable means of income. unless of course you have the money to get on your feet.

and yes partying of course

and most ridiculous thing ive done is either trying to use a nine volt battery as a defibrillator and applying cpr to a runt who passed after a rain storm must have drown him.

OR slicing a female veiled open to get her eggs out after being told by the vet that they wouldnt be viable because we had her put down. guess what, most of them were. smarty pants mc turtle breeder thought she had ish on chams.
