Don’t forget to make some of those changes to the infamous kit, their are better products on the market than what I suggested but the ones I recommended would cost the least amount to get the chameleon in a habitable cage for now. And I agree with everything @MissSkittles and @Beman have said...
I appreciate this info, I haven’t been fogging at all recently just spraying I assumed below 65 was too cold my Cham has turned black in those temps and she really doesn’t like it so I don’t let them get below 65 maybe it’s because she is a juvenile
Yep everything you bought is junk I got the same kit plenty of us have made that mistake. I’m gonna break the bad news for you, theirs maybe 2 things you can salvage from that kit for now and their is a lot of things wrong with your husbandry because of it. Let me list what is okay and what...
It seems like you’ve got better ventilation than me with what your using. For my adult crickets I drilled holes in the top of the container and drilled holes in the sides of the tub. I’m cutting a corner not using screen but they are surviving and thriving. For the pinheads they will be moved...
Yeah definitely find an experienced exotic reptile vet their might not be one near you where your located but most of us on this forum have had to travel to see an exotic reptile vet. They will properly diagnose what is wrong with him, since it seems like everything you’re doing for his care is...
It seems like you take care of him well and have all the right supplements and lighting/cage and everything like that seems correct. I’m not sure if I have any advice on this one you should get him scheduled to be seen by the vet you would expect to pay anywhere between $100-$200 usually to get...
So this is what I mainly use for the food and water and I use the zoomed probe thermometer to make sure the temp is good it ranges from 82-88 degrees depending on how wet the sand is. The crickets are at the perfect temperature to eat drink and breed constantly. I should have the first pinheads...
Maybe double check the temperature. Also if one cricket dies it can deplete your entire colony it has a domino effect, they release ammonia gas that kills the other crickets that walk past the carcass. Also daily sanitation and you must use egg carton or something similar if they walk over their...
My crickets stay alive for the entire lifespan. They die of old age. With proper temperature ventilation and good diet that contains leafy greens and some carrots plus I put a little high calcium flukers dry feed and clear water cubes for hydration. I can post a picture of everything I use it...
Your probably right on this but I don’t want a sea of pinheads that would be overpopulation I want to make a system just to have a variety of sizes of crickets for my lizards and I want to separate them by size so I’ll need specific laying bins.
I’m tired of over spending for these little guys between my chameleon and beardies. I just pulled their old lay bin out it has thousands of eggs. I’ve got them incubating at 88 degrees and just set up a new laying bin. They have access to unlimited food and water in this bin. Shortly I’ll have...
Also @Beman I think this person is talking about the ribs that are poking out a bit in these pictures they look a bit off. They said she fell and said the mark is only on one side. I think they are asking if it looks like the ribs could be broken, does it look that way to you?
@Beman is giving all the info you need for this topic I think he addressed everything needed. The only thing I recommend is I would place your cage higher on a stand preferably 2ft above the ground and set up a drain pan for the draining water. Chameleons like to be a little higher up it gives...
The chameleon left at the bottom of the cage shows signs of stress and disease. They are all kinds of things your chameleon may experience. I can't say exactly what is best for you, because I'm not a veterinarian. The only thing I can do is to give advice, which may help the veterinarian solve...
There shouldn’t be any reason to keep your chameleons together. It’s all for the human belief of a couple relationship. The only reason a veiled male or female would be together would be for breeding purposes. That means they would temporarily be near each other for the means of breeding IF they...
Also just throwing this out there, sometimes a chameleon will change color and go to the bottom of cage for temperature relief or due to stress or illness. It probably isn’t his temperature or an illness just give thought to those that is possible for a reason why he could be at the bottom...
He is definitely territorial as to be expected all charms are. I hand my feed veiled chameleon Iris and plan to continue doing that until she reaches adult age it helps them get used to a human/human hand. When I first got Iris she hissed and wasn’t fond to humans, but I expected that, but I did...
