To test to see if the pair are ready to breed, I always used to show the female to the male so they could see each other but not get at each other and watch the reactions. Then, if their reactions indicated readiness, they could be put together. Keep an eye on them though, because sometimes they...

Wow! She’s finally 7! I knew she would do it! Hope she lives many more years!

Make sure it’s a good chameleon vet.

Better pictures of all of her might help. They can go down hill and die quickly if things are not addressed quickly enough. I don’t want to see that happen.

“Preliminary field data reveal that this species occupies UV irradiance Zone 4 in Madagascar, the highest zone for reptiles recorded. Only the irradiance of the high UVB irradiance group in our experiment approached this zone and resulted in the best reproductive success”…...

“To conclude, we provide evidence of female mate choice for specific aspects of dynamic colour change in male chameleons, including UV colouration and colour change in the visible range. We showed that females rely on different aspects of colour change according to the body region to assess...

“From the results of this study, it is concluded that the duodenum plays the most important role in the active transcellular absorption of calcium in veiled chameleons, which is in accordance with many mammals. Furthermore, different feeding and light regimes strongly influence the Cb-D28k...

“Measurable concentrations of retinol at all stages of egg development in the chameleons suggests effective conversion from carotenoid precursors, with concentrations similar to those measured in other lizard eggs.”… https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/zoo.10039

You said you have a monstera plant in the cage…monstera plants can cause eye irritation in some animals…don’t know if it’s part of the problem or not…but just thought it was worth mentioning. Does your chameleon rub its eyes on the leaves?

So the calcium powder is all you use to dust on the insects? If you’ve only had the chameleon for a couple of weeks, the supplements you’ve been using, shouldn’t have anything to do with the eyes…but I think you should let us do a husbandry review… Here’s the link to it…just answer the questions...

Wow! Stella is having a good long life! You should be proud! I’m sure it’s because you have taken such good care of her and followed the “rules” for female chameleon care so well! May she live many more! Hope the treatment goes well! 🍀

Definitely need better photos and ones showing the whole body as well.

@MissSkittles said…”Sorry Lynda, but I’m hijacking this post”…no problem…hope you get an answer to what it was. For a long time now, I’ve felt that papilloma type lesions need more study. I don’t think/have been told they are as simple as we think they are.

Wow! This is so interesting! Thanks for posting the video as well as the photos!

You said…”Food: she only accepts flies which get some multivitamin and calcium, no D3. I am also offering her crickets, locusts, dubia and shelfordella. But she only has interest in flies.”…the flies are getting multivitamin and calcium or they are dusted with both? What brands of calcium and...

I don’t know why it matters what religion, sexual orientation, colour, race, etc a person is…we are all on this forum because we love chameleons or are fascinated by them and deep down inside nothing else matters. I also love many other critters and enjoy studying them, testing their abilities...

Good to hear that she’s recovering!

You said…”I noticed her tongue was very slow/weak so noted that down, she could barely extend her tongue an inch or two past her face”…this concerns me. What have you been giving her as supplements? How long ago did she lay the last batch of eggs?

Wow…another year has passed already! May there be many more! 🍀❤️
