hes usually a vibrant green, but this discoloration is a yellowish white, almost completely white. i know what it looks like when they shed, they've shed several times since we've had them. you can see his ribs, and his eyes are really sunken. its scary!
ok so maybe around a month or so ago, we took our chameleons in for a check up. our male "leon" had a bump on his chin, which was the main reason we took them to the vet. the vet gave us antibiotics for him to make the bump go away, but it didnt seem to do anything to it. sometimes it would seem...
so we took the chameleons to the vet...cami is in fact a girl...and leon is in fact a boy. they took cultures of his bump and gave us antibiotics for it.
when we purchased our chameleons they told us which one was male and which one is female. i understand that there might have been some confusion as to which was which. but we were told that the males had brighter coloring under their chin (you can see it when they puff up) and the female if she...
no she doesnt do any of those things. he's the one that hisses and lunges at her. he turns a dark dark black when this happens too.
she doesnt have any spots...she usually is yellow in color or a yellow green. sometimes she turns brown.
i want to know where i can get calcium dust.
because i know that crickets breathe through their skin...if i dust a whole bunch (like when you get them from the pet store) and dont feed them all at one time to the chameleon theyll die quicker than those that you dont dust at the same time. so...
i meant to say uvb...it came out uvc. its a compact light.
we have the both of them in the same enclosure and im not sure if thats a good idea or not. the whole idea with them being in the same enclosure is so that they can mate. we dont dust the crickets with anything...the gutload we give...

thank you so much! we are so worried about our chameleons. we have an appt set up with a vet. but its so scary when you know that they are not themselves. its like having children...you get paranoid when you know something is wrong even when they cant tell you. omg...we are freaking out!
im really scared that my chameleon may be dehydrated and that is causing his eyes to be all sunken. both my chameleons seem to be a little bit more lethargic and our male flap neck has a growth on his chin. hes the one that seems to be worse than our female. his grip is still strong and hes...
