Some choose to keep the basking/heat light on for just the first half of the day and some opt for the entirety. I go by what my chameleons are doing, which is basking at different times so it’s the full 12 hours for them.
Depending on which species of chameleon you have, it’s age and what...
Yes, you want to give each one twice a month. Which multivitamin are you using? If it is a Repashy, it should already have preformed vitamin A and no extra is needed (and can be detrimental).
Hi. From the pics, I can’t be absolutely certain that it isn’t a burn. Are you able to get a top view, looking down upon it? I just want to have 100% certainty.
Chams do shed differently when they get older. When babies and young, they go ‘poof’ over their entire body at once and it’s quick. As...
Usually 5-6” is a decent depth. I used to make my lay bins much deeper than that, until the day one of my girl had her tunnel collapse on her and I had to save her. (Totally my own fault) Keeping it around 6” or so helps not only so they can possibly dig themselves out if needed, but they do dig...
Here’s a couple of mine…panthers.
My sweet little girl Kali when I first got her. *she’s a nosy be girlie.
This was when I realized that she is my petite purple princess.
But even now I never know exactly what color she will be. Maybe more of a pink?
Sometimes more of a muddy color to blend...
Lucky went back to the vet today and unfortunately I don’t have the update that I’d like to have. For all of the antibiotic and anti inflammatory he’s had, it’s had zero effect on his eye. While his eye is no longer bulging out, he does still keep it partially closed and it does have that bulge...
He looks like a healthy guy & his enclosure looks/sounds good. You could add more branches or vines. I’d be giving the calcium at every feeding.
I wonder if he’s just kind of coming into his own. Mature males will often do routine patrols of their enclosures to check for rivals or mates. If...
Found a strange critter under a plant pot outside. Google says it’s a Brahminy blindsnake. Cute little guy, but its musk smells like the dirtiest cricket bin ever. Thankfully I didn’t pick it up with my hand.
It’s fine in terms of night time humidity. However, do check that the timer won’t be going off during the day instead, as heat plus high humidity greatly increases risks for respiratory infection.
