My veiled is very picky about what he eats. He likes crickets but I feel as though he is getting tired of them as he doesn't eat them as fast as he used to. He is about 2 years old and a happy boy. He's not much of a worm chameleon (I've tried mealworms, waxworms, Phoenix worms, super worms, and...
I got really lucky with my boy. He is super sweet and I usually take him out about every other day, we sit on the porch for sun in the morning or I put him on my shoulder and he walks with me to the mailbox and back.
So the vet said my chams fecal showed Giardia. He is giving me flagyl for him. As far as cleaning his cage and everything what should I do?? Anyone with experience with this stuff before?
Any help is wonderful :) want to do whatever I can to help my sweet boy.
Another thing he had said was for a chameleon that drinks everyday his eyes aren't as "popped" as they should be. Just slightly though, nothing drastic.
My thought would be maybe that kidney problems would cause lack of appetite? I'm not sure, I should know more soon with the results of the fecal. My poor boy :(

Wow! I didn't know about the wild chams!! That's pretty cool! Well I just got my little man 2 weeks ago and he just hangs on the front door of the cage when we are home and anywhere near him. I feel so bad putting him back in everytime because he tries to outrun it and climb up me or whatever he...
I have heard of people keeping them outside! Define "too hot" are we talking when florida starts to hit upper 90 weather...? I have thought of keeping him outside as he seems to enjoy it. I think I will start saving up some extra money to get him a bigger enclosure and keep him outside more. In...
Hello!
My question is about letting my name veiled Cham hang out outside of his cage. I have a fake ficus tree I bought him that he loves to hang out on. My concern with him being out of the cage too long is the humidity. I figure I can buy a floor lamp stand and attach a heat bulb and UVB to...
Yepp, he urates everyday at almost the same exact time lol I am concerned about him not eating. And of course the more I read online the more paranoid I get. I was gonna buy some waxworks today to see if he would eat those.
The guy at the pet store said that he may have thrown up from eating...
