I walked into the room and he was just gulping it up.

I'm really worried, Archie just ate some sphagnum moss and I don't know what it will do to him

Sorry it took so long for me to respond to this, but it looks fine now. I guess I was just getting a little worried.

I smushed it like 30 minutes ago

I was feeding Archie when he put his tail in the spot where the door hinges are located, and then I closed the door on his tail. I found out when he moved really fast away from the door, then I noticed the situation. Afterwards his tail looked all smushed, and it looked black and blue as well...

My when I say I loose them all the time, I mean like I loose about one every two weeks, per the average life span of a cricket. I usually have crickets that live to about a month, unless of course I feed them to Archie, but by a month they're usually all gone, due to Archie eating them. I feed...

Okay, so I have crickets die in my cricket keeper all the time (and I'm sure everyone else does too), but when they die, instead of throwing them away I sometimes put them in a container of dead bugs. Today I recently, for the first time, fed Archie two dead crickets, without thinking of things...

Archie is truly a test of patience. I love him and all but he sure is a test of patience. I get him out about once every 2 days, I try to aim for at least an hour of him getting out of his enclosure but it always extends to like 3. Whenever I open the cage he rushes to my hand, and whenever I...

Should I coax him with my hand?

Okay I know this is kind of silly but I'm really at a loss here. I got Archie out this afternoon and he was crawling around for about thirty minutes, then he got on my little stereo for the next three hours, and just stayed in that spot. He won't come off now and I'm about to go to bed. I tried...

There we go

I wanted to get an opinion to see if one would think these count as sunken eyes I give him water all the time but NEVER see him drink.

I had an interesting question to ask. So I have a terrarium with a separate caged aquarium at the bottom. My idea was to get a red claw crab and create a little hole where he could come to the surface, but my only problem is that I don't know how he'll react to Archie (my chameleon). I thought...

My chameleon, Archie, is a very adventorous guy. I feel really bad when he tries to climb the glass but fails when he slips off. After many attempts he goes and sits in his basking spot. Do you guys really think it’s that big of deal or am I worrying too much? I get him out everyday for long...

I was feeding Archie this morning and he did something interesting that I'm not sure is normal for chameleons. When I put the cricket in the cup there was a ton of calcium supplement on the bottom, so naturally he ate the cricket, but the interesting thing is that afterwards he started acquiring...

I’m new to this forum, so I’m not sure I’m writing this in the right place. Anyways, I keep finding myself looking over at Archie (my chameleon) to see if he’s drinking from his dripper. I never see him drinking, so I’m always worried he’s not getting water. Am I worrying to much?

I’ve had him for about a week now The enclosure is pretty medium sized (I’ll take a picture when I get home) The aquarium is like the bottom 1/3 of the cage (again I’ll take a picture when I get home) Yes Archie’s plants are coming out of the water I’ll make sure the air vent isn’t isn’t blowing...

My chameleon (Archie) is a baby veiled, at least 3 months old. I handle my chameleon everyday (so far) I feed Archie at least once a day, and I’ve fed him 4 house flies now, that’s the only food that sticks out (I also feed him crickets w/ calcium supplement more often than that) I use Rep-Cal...
