He's settling in and eating A TRUCKLOAD of crickets and dubia... did I mention I hate crickets!? 5 -7 Dubias a day amd like 7-12 small/medium crickets.
Also now that he's more settled he's been showing his colors more.
My enclosure is in the main living space, not a dedicated room, so is there a decent way to cool just the enclosure? It's a hybrid enclosure so it should make it easier.
I've seen the info graphic from chameleon academy and ready/listen to the podcast about it but I've not adopted it...
I'm still doing a mist before lights on, a few minute mist late morning, and then a mist about am hour before lights off.
I saw @Gingero video the other day and she lists...
Thought I would post here too... @Camiezone made the whole transaction super easy! Zhe sent lots of care sheets and you can tell she cares for the chameleons.
If you're an established breeder or just starting out I'd never know the difference! Thanks again!
Thanks again!
I'm going to watch this as I want to start keeping a weeks worth of crickets in hand but I HATE crickets for so many reasons.
Dubias are my preferred bug since they are darn near immortal and have zero odor.
So I hope you get some answers because I too need to know...
Got my new little man today! Here's hoping he lives a long and healthy life!
Looking forward to him getting some color as I already see some popping through!
Hatched may 7th so it's just under 3 months!
Thanks to @Camiezone for sending him my way and @MissSkittles for pointing out the...
Are you going to be at the Pomona reptile show by chance?
Am looking to get a new guy and you helped out so much on my other thread so I thought I'd return the favor any way I can
I was looking to get another chameleon and the prices are so high!!! I have purchased from a breeder in the past who is a sponsor here and they were always a premium but not sure if I can afford from them this time around.
It's a bummer because I have all the case and infrastructure but I...
OK, I think this will hopefully be of help to someone in the future who may stumble across this in a search so I'm going to keep this going as I find out more information.
Here is data from the 2 govee thermometers I have in my cage.
The basking temp probe is one of those small displayless...
So I typically buy from Dubiaroaches.com but definitely had my local pet store (that gets them from a distributor but they are already counted out and packaged so not like a cricket bin with 1000's in there.)
I agree, I wish I could have gotten a fecal... it was on my list and even time I would...
Didn't want to start a whole new thread for this and maybe @MissSkittles or @Beman can point me in the right direction...
I have a Dubai colony going but let's assume for a mintue that it may have been bacterial or parasites from his feeders. (I guess they could have been any of the...
OK everyone, looking for some insite and some new ideas.
I've attached a picture of my enclosure and despite the half alive plants and branch setup... since that will all Probably change, what would be part of you're ideal enclosure?
my chameleon passed today and I'm not sure why so to combat...
Well guys and gals; thanks for all you're help. He didn't make it.
Went to check on him and he had passed.
Hopefully I'll get the courage to get another one at some point since I have so much invested into his setup.
It happened so fast too, that's what I think bothers me the most is that I...
OK vet is able to see my tomorrow 2pm.
I'll do my best to keep him going until then but im not optimisticat this point. I'm hoping we can get a determination about URI or Parasites tomorrow.
Either way it will be a hail marry at that point but fingers crossed because he is just so weak.
No other symptoms; mucus is clear and sticky however.
No bubbles, no head raise, no labored breathing.
Good news is he is still alive, super weak, but his eyes are clear and responsive when he opens them.
I took him outside today in the sun for 15min on my hand, he moved a bit and...
