Hi guys, I purchased female four months ago in hopes that she would breed with my male. Unfortunately, after a series of health issues he passed away and now I’m in the market for a male. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Hey guys, so my chameleon had to go see an exotic specialist and have a procedure done. It’s going to run about $1000 after everything is said and done. Are there any programs that help with financial assistance that are worth looking into? Also, does anyone have any experience with Allstate? I...

Hi guys, I have some large silkworms and I was wondering how to cocoon them? I know that they do it naturally but should I use egg crates so that they don’t get entangled?

I just discovered that I have access to mulberry leaves. Unfortunately, fall is right around the corner and the leaves will be gone very soon. Does anyone know of a silkworm chow recipe? Or of a way to preserve the leaves through winter?

I gutload mine with mustard greens, broccoli and carrots. Honestly, they are by far the easiest feeder insect. Colonies are hard to come by, because they’re as good as gold. However, you can purchase them online. Breeders feed them cat food, Lemons/limes, and rabbit food to stimulate growth...

Hello, I’m looking to purchase a true Tamatave female from a reputable source. Does anyone know of any Tamatave breeders? Is there a way to tell if a female is a pure blood tamatave?

Hey guys, unfortunately my YBBB has started developing a bump in his left eye. It has been slowly growing the last two weeks. Does anyone know what this could be? Do you think it will resolve itself?

Thank you for your input. My tamatave doesn’t seem to be phased by the presence of other chameleons, but my ambilobe hates other chams

No, not usually.

I have a eight month old ybbb that’s started to show his yellows when free roaming. In the past, he’s only turned yellow when he’s really angry and defensive. I’m not frustrated, I bought him for the color change, I just wanna know why he’s turning yellow when he’s calm. My tamatave turns orange...

Thank you for your advice

I know that this sounds messed up but maybe it will help, his mouth is starting to look a bit like Popeye’s.

I lowered his basking spot with the MV bulb, because it was very hot. He was always about 8 inches away from the bulb itself. I used it for about 3 months, until I decided to switch back to a linear 5.0 bulb. What do you do for a cham if it develops cancer?

I’ve had my tamatave Arthur for almost a year, and unfortunately he’s had several medical issues. He’s been treated for both burns and respiratory infections. I got his heath under control after altering his husbandry, however he seems to be developing another issue. We took him into a local...

Nimbus, my 7 month old Ybbb

This is my boy Nimbus’s cage. I ended up removing the spagnum moss after I caught him scarfing it down.

Linda with “Linda’s gone buggy” always has some, same with Morifeeders. Personally, I only buy mine from Morifeeders. Silkworms die very easily, it’s best to buy large size and feed them off as soon as you get them. Their food molds quick, some randomly cocoon, and the slightest bit of humidity...

To me it looks like minor burns. You should take him to vet if you’re concerned and ask for some silvadene, unfortunately you’ll probably need to tell the vet what you need. Most vets know less about chams than you do, so you’ll need to do the research and suggest a course of treatment. They...

Chams can close their eyes when under stress. I thought that my ambilobe was dying when I first got him because he always had his eyes closed. 2 minute mistings, 4 times a day and some bee pollen from biodude did the trick. He’s constantly alert and eats well these days.

Breed your own feeders. Once your dubias and superworms take off you’ll have more than you know what to do with. Saves you hundreds. Now if you every master Hornworm breeding please lmk, that’s a challenge.
