Ah thank you for the quick reply! Do u mind answering another question I have that I just read about?

Wait Chams aren't supposed to lay down during the day??

Cosmo is a very handsome boy! I really recommend a vet though. Vets are trained for this stuff and it's never a bad idea. Some vets charge as little as 54 dollars for a check up which seems like a pretty good deal to me! Keep us updated!

She's a beautiful girl

Hey guys! I'm back again with another health concern which is shed. My chameleon hasn't shed yet.. I have had him for about a month and a half and theres not even a sign of shed. his basking area is around 88 the rest of the cage is about 76 the cage is located near a door it is on a low table...

88 degrees!

Hello guys! I have my lighting sorted out! The cham didn't have the best reaction to a ceramic heat emitter, so I bought i higher heat light. I purchased a 72 watt soft white incandescent light and he seems to have a much more positive reaction to that light and his colors lightened up so much...

what do you mean tubes?

Okay, so i think I'll just store the heat emitter and use it for winter if you say the light is that beneficial to them, even though the UVB gives off light? you two sort of confused me haha im new to chams so im trying to figure things out as a i go along. If I were to use a bulb what would you...

to me, he looks dehydrated. His back leg is also pretty worrying. His cask also looks rather sunken in.. How long do you mist him for? Have you tried showering him?

sour spurs on the back of the hind legs

So can I drop the so should i drop my heat bulb light altogether and just stick with the UVB as lighting while relying on the heat emitter for heat?

My vet recommended getting rid of my heat blub and buy a ceramic heat emitter and rely on the UVB for his lighting, opinions?

i just took my veiled for eye problems an learned he had a vitamin a deficiency! I was using herptivite for my cham (beta-carotene) and turn out chams cant turn that into vitamin A! So if you are using something with beta-carotene that could be an issue. he's a juvenile so i recommend because...

update: My cham is eating, i think the crickets are dissapearing so i assume that he's eating them but they could be hiding which worries me. Something new started happening though. I noticed that one of his eyes were closed but would open when I would walk by him. I couldn't get a picture, but...

he is scared of the tongs and wont take the food

its been a couple days and the sneezing stopped. he still does the weird movement but theres no sound. He is not eating though. He misses crickets when he rarely tries to eat them and after one try gives up. He's drinking still but only when i put the tube by him..

i just went to the store and bought a normal white light for his heat source. I still have about 6 months until i can get a new uvb though. his multivitte has beta carotene. i bought it so he wouldn't have to risk vitamin a toxicity. The sound kinda sounds like a hissing? its like a hiss/sneeze...
