Calais says good morning to everyone on CF :D

Thanks :) Poor guy's been through a lot. He has some battle scars but is still handsome as ever :D

hard to tell, but she just looks fat to me.

He is quite an old boy living past 8! They normally don't live far past 5 :o But to be honest the loss of use of his back legs and tail, now his front, makes me think of my veiled chameleon Leopold. It is not MBD, it sounds like kidney failure which unfortunately will not be cured:( It was very...

snapped a couple of Calais today. He has a bit of shed stuck to him though in spots:rolleyes:

definitely cut her food back like suggested, and her basking temps need only be around 80F. If she is just getting fat from all the food, which is likely given the amount :D, you should be able to catch it and she could end up laying only tiny clutches in her lifetime, or none at all! Which...

Well you have come to the right place my friend :D Chameleons are very difficult and VERY expensive to care for, which is part of the fun in my opinion :p. Veileds are much more hardy though than other species which is good for beginners. JannB has a very good blog on caring for your new veiled...

put her in there with a stick that doesn't come out of the top, a small one you can prop up against the side but that she doesn't climb out, and leave her in there for a day. don't peek because she may not do anything if she feels she is being watched. do this every couple of days. Also PLENTY...

What interests you? I always go on babynames.com and search name meanings, after I have had an animal for a couple days I can tell it's personality and it has more meaning to me than a regular name. My panther chameleon's name is Calais, which is greek for "changes color". Calais was also a...

I'm so sorry Jann :( Maybe he has arthritis in his jaw? Once they can get a good clear xray of his jaw maybe they can better determine what's going on? That is just my two cents, I hope it helps!

wolf spider, but not sure why people feed them off because their bites are venomous, very painful to humans, possibly fatal to smaller creatures like chameleons.

same thing I do for my dubias. No substrate, only egg cartons and toilet paper rolls in a glass tank with screen lid, just toss them scraps and some premade gutload, and I have an under tank heating pad.

try breeding your own roaches. Dubia roaches are awesome! They don't climb glass, don't smell, don't make noise, and breed very well. With an undertank heater and some veggies and fruits along with some egg cartons your golden. Also study Sandrachameleon's blogs to learn about food and...

is he thirsty?

Mine have been reproducing well. What are you doing with yours?

roaches are an awesome staple feeder, not just a treat. I say start breeding your own hissers AND dubias especially if you can get hissers for free!

Thanks for the info =) i ill try to not water it too much but I have an automatic mister so hopefully the dense leaves up top will act as a canopy to drain off some of the water.

oh okay, they must be wrong then when they call a ficus a money tree.

yeah accidentally pressed submit

Fixed up Calais' free range a bit, bought a new tree too! Such a steal! Got it for $17 at walmart! It was labeled money tree but it doesn't look like a money tree, does anyone know what it is?
