He looks ok! You want their elbows to look like an "L" and not a "u"

I have fed wild caught katydid, moths and dragonflies with no problems. I know many keepers that feed wild caught bugs. It is really up to you. They can get parasites from store bought crickets.

You could use a longer one also, as that will not cover all the way across.

Yes that is what you want to use.

His limbs look ok to me but I would definitely up the calcium without d3 to every feeding or close to it. That is the protocol most of us follow along with a multi vitamin 2 times a month and the calcium with d3 twice monthly also. Make sure to change out uvb bulbs about every 6 months. That...

Maybe it is the medicine. Me personally, I would not give him the meds unless you are sure he has parasites. I would get a fecal done to verify that.

Awe I am so sorry. I am glad he was loved and cared for in his final days. I am with you and am sick and tired of seeing chameleons suffering from people’s ignorance. There is absolutely NO excuse, ZERO, NONE with all the resources available today on the internet on how to care for them or...

Ugh... yeah It's a possibility . We have the little anole lizards down here and I was driving and saw a crow swoop down and fly away with one. Your chameleon seems to be of a decent size for a crow to get though. Let's hope she wandered off. Have you tried going out at night with a high...

Does not look like MBD to me.

Do you have birds around? I hate to bring this up but birds of prey will eat chameleons. I almost had one of mine eaten by a hawk many years ago. I dont know what kind of birds you have around. I had a little turtle snatched up by a crow when I was a kid . I was letting it sun in a...

Happy hatchday to Lottie! Boy how time flies!!!

You're quite welcome!

Silkworms. High in calcium and low in fat. Coastal Silkworms sells them and Mulberry Farms. I don't know if either one has any in stock though.

What is your plan for the hat? Obviously for him to wear it? Chameleons are really not those type of animals that you dress up like dogs or cats, so I am sure what you are planning to do is not a good idea.

Misting is NOT just for humidity, it is for hydration. Just because your chameleon may appear to be ok today, does not mean you are doing long term damage internally to him(meaning his kidneys) by not properly hydrating him. Chronic kidney failure is very common in chameleons. I have seen too...

Well you have to explain exactly what you are doing with the Elmer's glue so we can comment! Is it safe for them to eat...well no! Jk

What works in your house many not work in mine as far as bulb wattages go. It is a trial and error thing really. Ambient house temps are different and it also depends on if you lay the dome that houses the bulb directly on the screen or raise it up. Also, how far away your basking branch is...

Enclosure is lovely! How can you go wrong with Louie's bloodline?! Looks like he is growing nicely!

You can also make a cricket feeder out of a milk jug or something smaller. Remove the front and glue screen on the back for the them to crawl on. Just search on here on how to make one.

They are amazing!
