I'm no panther expert, but those look to be two males. The greenish blue one is giving me Nosy Be vibes. Again, I only know veileds, but that... that's suspicious. Best of luck ^^
It's possible that it's shedding related, his leg is starting to shed today. It doesn't happen very often, once every few days maximum (that I'm seeing it). I listened closely and I couldn't hear any sounds when he was breathing. I also tried taking him out to examine his mouth but he wouldn't...
Hello,
Recently on occasion I've noticed that Mondo, my ~2 year male veiled chameleon, has been doing something that to me, looks a lot like a yawn. He opens his mouth very wide and then closes it in a matter of seconds. Afterwards he is a little puffed up, but it's different from when he gapes...
My male veiled is pretty fussy, but I wouldn't say it's hate. He's never tried to bite me so that has to be something, right? He also takes worms from me more readily than from other people. Whether it's hate, love, or high tolerance, I love him to bits all the same :rolleyes:
Two things I recommend you change
1. 90.4F is too hot for a female veiled. Change it to ~85F
2. Crickets themselves are very nutritionally poor and therefore it's important that you do gut load them. You want to fill them with as many nutrients as possible so that your chameleon gains them when...
Whenever I go to petsmart I check the sex of the chameleon they have, and I've never seen a male there once. Of course it doesn't help that people working there usually have little to no clue about the animals they're caring for
Oh, and if you change your mind and want to add more plants, this list is super helpful!:

Good luck with your baby boy!
I'm not sure if this was mentioned yet, but it doesn't really make much sense for the mushroom ledge to be there if it's intended purpose is to be "rested upon". Chameleons tend to like to grip on what they stand on and by the looks of it that isn't possible with the ledge. Now, of course...
It's not listed on the 2 safe plants list I referenced.
That however does not mean it isn't safe, I just can't find anything that says it is safe
Here's the more popular of the two lists. It's a great resource: http://flchams.com/chameleon-safe-plant-list/
As long as it's just plain calcium powder (without D3) you should be clear to dust more than one (in fact it's probably a good idea because crickets have a habit of cleaning themselves off). D3 and multivitamins are what chameleons can "overdose" on, so I'd look for advice from more experienced...
