This forum is really helpful im still a newbie at this so I'm constantly asking questions on here lol

I'll call the vet in the morning I had to get him checked for parasites too anyways any idea how much that'll cost last time I took him for a check up it was $85. I dont think he is malnourished as he eats all the time but better to be safe then sorry I'll up the feeders. I do use Repashy...

What Insects would you guys recommend? I usually rotate Superworms and Crickets (mostly crickets because of superworms high fat content) but I have also ordered Silkworms and I fed him Waxworms once but I've read nothing but bad things about those so I stopped.

So I've noticed today that my chameleon has been closing one eye while moving it and I read that that could be a sign of Vitamin A deficiency. I have been using Flukers Orange Cube to gut load my crickets but today I put some apples for the crickets and Tangerines for the super worms and what...

Thank you!!

I was also looking on tips on how to setup my cage better because I'm still very new to chameleon keeping and have learned a lot over the past 2 weeks but there is still much for me to learn. I've had experience with other reptiles (Bearded Dragon, California Kingsnake) but never with a Cham

So my chameleon just underwent his first shed with me and as a treat I gave him small super worms and he accidentally ate about 2-3 those oatmeal looking things in the mealworm container I'm worried about Impaction in my little guy.

Thanks guys ill just try and avoid it but if it happens it happens

Any tips on keep these guys outta the cage? I built a homemade fruit fly trap but that obviously didnt work lol

While I was cleaning some poop from his cage 2 wild fruit fly happen to fly in and I was trying to coax them out and in the process Rango ate them should I worry about Parasites? and or Insecticides making him sick?

Thank you I'm gonna fill it up tomorrow!!

Okay im gonna rearrange his branches tomorrow

He may be under high stress because he just gave a threat posture any tips on how to make him relax? He's not as active as he was in the glass or the first day in his new screen cage. Ever since I took him to the vert he just kinda hangs out on the top branch and has rlly dark colors. He ate...

I did that but he seems wobbly when he walks and he has very Dark coloration

I've noticed he's a bit cold as well he's had Dark spots almost all day should I get a new bulb for him or move his basking spot up some more? I moved him away from the door but he's still under a vent. his basking spot is less then an inch from the light and the basking temp is about 83 degrees.

Okay just in case he got intemidated about his reflection I removed a mirror that was close to his cage
