Yes! Turn off the fogger if temps are above 68! Feed 1-2 silkworms every feeding for a bit of hydration and hornworm treats at least once per week…more often while he’s taking any medication which are usually hard on kidneys. Is it central ac or a window unit? If central, try adding a window...

- Feeding - Crickets, black soldier flies & larva, silkworms, hornworms. He won’t eat any kind of roach. I think roaches are an acquired taste for some chams. I gut load my feeders with repashy bug burger. I love Bug Burger, but I wonder if it might be somehow contributing to the problem...

Husbandry Information: - Ambilobe Panther chameleon, Male - Hatched approx Oct 2024 - Cage Type - 2 x 2 x 40in partial glass and screen enclosure. There is a glass front and back with screen sides and top. This seems to have adequate air flow. I’ve already asked about managing drainage. More...

Hi. I have a couple of questions for you while I go thru your husbandry. How are you managing drainage in your enclosure? What are your night time temps?

You’ll have to take her for a veterinary wellness visit and take a fresh fecal for them to test. Same as is done for cats and dogs.

Oh yeah! There are several great feeders. Adding a couple of graphics below. It’s important to keep whatever feeder you use as healthy as possible with a varied diet of fresh produce so that they will be more nutritious for your chameleon. One of the causes of picky eaters is parasites. If your...

Oh my goodness! They really know how to pose! 😂 💗

They are probably soil gnats and are the bane of our existence as chameleon keepers. There are solutions though, but not one is going to be 100%. I have 5 double sized bioactive enclosures, 3 leopard gecko bioactive tanks, a couple of bins of extra isopods and even keep my roach colony...

This is the correct Repashy - has a Jackson’s on the label. https://www.lllreptile.com/products/31050-repashy-calcium-plus-lod-3oz You’ll continue using the calcium without D3 at every feeding except one every two weeks, in which you’d use this combo product. Very easy regimen and is a fantastic...

All of your husbandry looks good, but I have questions about your supplements. Is your ReptiVite with or without D3? Are you giving the ReptiVite and D3 the same day or week? Assuming the ReptiVite is without D3 - to simplify your life you could get it with D3 or switch to Repashy calcium plus...

You are extremely lucky! In addition to everything else, he could have very easily become food for a predator. It has very sadly happened before that chameleons have been grabbed by hawks, even with their humans nearby.

I was thinking the same. :) She is a beauty and it’s a fantastic pic.

Here you go. Sorry your guy isn’t doing so well. I agree about that recovery product. While many/most exotics vets will see/treat reptiles, often their knowledge is pretty basic and lacking with regards to the very many different species. This is especially true when it comes to chameleons...

Much depends on how large of a breeding colony of roaches you have. Generally it’s about 5+ females per 1 male ratio and you’ll want at least a couple of males. If you get any extra, you may be able to sell them to fellow reptile keepers in your area, or maybe even a locally owned pet store. I...

Ok, yeah…that sure is a male. Can you post some pics of his enclosure, including the top with the lights? Perhaps going over your husbandry, or at least the most essential parts of it would be advised. Having correct uvb, supplement regimen, temps and humidity are the most common areas that...
