thanks everyone! Ok I am keeping the night bulb off. I think winter is pretty much over but i will get a ceramic soon just in case. :) The vet gave him an antibiotic as a just in case thing. Although he didnt appear to be sick to her she just wanted to give him a little dose. It was such a tiny...
No I dont have any crickets in there, I heard they bite and stress out reptiles. Hopefully he will shed soon :/ I will take out the night light then. Even if its chilly in here like 56F thats ok at night for a cham? Thats the room temp right now I have a digital thermometer set up in the middle...
Thanx I actually do have herptivite but he just recently had his vitamin d3 powder and I wanted to wait maybe another week or so for him to take his multivitamin. Sometimes the black dots will appear in different spots but i didnt see them move. My apt can get 52F at night in this season so I...
I saw my picky lil eater take a nap today. Not good!!! 0.o He did take another earlier just now!!! I think he might have parasites although my vet said he didnt have any. He has these little black bumps on his skin that I mentioned to my vet and she said they are normal. ***Yeah yeah he's a WC...
Hey guys I noticed something interesting today. While he basks, he turns brownish ( to absorb more light? )and he "flares" his neck out when he basks. Is this normal behavior? He does this even when im not even close to him/ in same room as him. Today...no interest in crickets but he twisted his...
Sometimes he eats on his own and yes he sticks out his tongue when he eats. He let me hand feed him a couple of times. Today he didnt want any crickets or worms so I just left him be. I am trying to hatch some fly pupae right now. I ordered some wax worms to raise into moths but they died...
I would love to take him outside but its a little too cold out right now and cloudy :( In the spring maybe! A few days ago I bought a tall bamboo plant with 5 stalks planted. He went for a little joy climb and seemed to love it! He went up to the very top and basked in the sunlight peeking from...
He is still being a pricky picky little butt T-T I hope he doesnt die or anything!!! He is still drinking a LOT of water. I am trying not to bother him so he doesnt stress out but at the same time the little bugger needs to eat!!! >:{ What I did was ( as I wait for my flies to come in the mail )...
I am pretty sure he's a juvinile, but almost an adult. I have had him about 2 weeks now. I have started to wear only green colors around him, including nail polish. I am worried my bright colored clothing startled and upset him. He seemed more relaxed today when I wore all green, he even let me...

My Senegal!!!
My spouse and I have a Senegal boy, as you already know! ^-^ He just went to the vet today and was perfectly fine! No parasites, healthy skin, and he even got a lil antibiotic shot-just in case because he is wild caught ;) He just got some more plants yesterday!!! He loves those...
Common myth chams " change color to blend into their surroundings." They turn a darker color to absorb more light and heat. Its just a coincidence hes brown on a branch. Espio likes to bask in privacy.
