There’s a lady in Hawaii who lets them stay wild but they visit her in her garden…you might like to do that if it’s allowed…she did this book… https://www.abebooks.com/9780615169262/Chameleons-Garden-Mary-Lovein-0615169260/plp You may want to talk to her…...

Word of advice…if you have a “prolapse” like that again…keep it moist with KY jelly not water and not Vaseline. If one ever does not recede, get the chameleon to a good chameleon vet asap. You can try using sugar water to shrink the swelling of the parts that are (moist/pink/protruding)...

Leopard geckos are awesome pets and can easily live to be 20 years old with proper husbandry.

IMHO, this is the best forum out there. There are so many people on here willing to spend time helping newbies avoid making beginner mistakes, etc. IMHO, there is no way to be sure what is going on with this chameleon without some testing being done..x-rays, for instance. There are too many...

I don’t have the photo handy at the moment…but…it was an aquarium with a screen lid. Don’t give me a hard time about it…when I first started keeping chameleons there were no screen cages in Canada at all available…and even when they did come in eventually, they were still not very practical with...

They lived in the same cage…seemed quite comfortable with each other. I had them for a few years. The male finally got a strange way of holding his head in an unusual position. The vets could find no reason for it to be happening. The female laid one batch of eggs a couple of years after I got...

My first pair of globifers purchased in the early 1990’s…WC and adults when I got them… https://www.adcham.com/images/images-species/C.globifer/glob.jpg

All I know about Hanukkah is that only one vial of oil was found with just enough oil to illuminate the Temple lamp for one day, and yet it lasted for eight full days. I know that there are special foods such as latkes of which I have never tried. Maybe one day I will still get to try them. I...

You said…”This species likes cooler temperatures”…I found they liked cooler temperatures too. Mine never reached 10 years with me, but they were all WC adults when I got them and came in with some health issues too. Things weren’t good back then, for many of the chameleons that came into Ontario...

So sorry for your loss. Sometimes we have hard choices to make. 💖

@ferritinmyshoes said “her behavior is concerning for possibly having retained eggs or inflammation of her reproductive tract.”…this is exactly what I would say is going on….be aware that I am NOT a vet…just someone who speaks from years of experience with chameleons and many other lizards, and...

What a beauty!

This shows how the tongue grabs the prey… Here’s another one…but this guy is a little bit weird about his interactions with chameleons…so take it with a grain of salt… One more…
