Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - female vieled chameleon. Approx 11-12 months. I've had her for about 4 months.
Handling - I have literally only held her twice. Once when she got her new cage set up and I had to move her, and once when I took her to the vet.
Feeding - mainly crickets...
Thank you! She has changed a lot since the day I brought her home, not even recognizable as the same chameleon. She looked so sickly and sad, now she's beautiful and mad lol
I'll keep you posted when the time comes!
Thanks guys! I kept waiting for her to get fat and lumpy and it just never happened. Instead my worry just increased lol I think I stress a little extra over her just because she had such a rough beginning and I don't know what effects that might have on her long term. And she's so little...
So it's been a month. Maybe I'm just a worry wart, but there's been no changes.
How long does it usually take to develop eggs? Or do you think maybe I was wrong about it being an egg at all? I know she's gone down to her lay bin but has never digged or shown any interest in it. She's still...
I had the poop thought shortly after I posted this, she does poop pretty regularly, typically from everyday to every couple of days at most, and she pooped yesterday.
The bulge appears to be on the other side now, or maybe it is more then one egg? (Or maybe I'm just tripping, that's definitely...
Hi everyone! So my little rescue baby, Hela, is now about 9-10 months old. She's my first female, so the whole egg laying makes me anxious. Her colors have changed a bit, mostly dark bars and not so drastically that I thought she was showing receptive colors, but then again I only have what info...
It's been so hot out I have to limit our outdoor time to shorter periods. I live in Arizona so summer is not our friend when its 100-115 outside, and it's just too hot. I'd really love to build an outdoor enclosure for them to take turns in.
Right now I just take their cage outside once a week...
I was on a business trip for a week, my reptiles were left in the care of my husband and son but I still worry like crazy when I'm gone. I got back Friday and yesterday Hela started her first shed since we got her. It's like she waited for me to witness it lol and I get way too excited over...
How can one little lizard make me so happy :love:
Life is funny ya know, I didn't want to do rescue chameleons because I was scared of the heart ache, but this little girl has filled me with so much joy!
I truly hope money wasn't the motivator also. But his scare tactics were laid on pretty thick, and literally told me she's going to end up with MBD, regardless of care, husbandry, or supplements. It was so matter of fact, like there's nothing I could do, unless I got her spayed...
But I'm...
Aw I'm so glad he has you now :love: I just took in a rescue a couple weeks ago, it's so worth watching them transform on the road to a healthy life and recovery.
I don't have any advice on building a cage, but I know there's a whole thread on here for enclosures with lots of great pictures, if...
And that's a prime example of how sometimes the internet can lead us astray, but this is exactly why I'm asking the questions (even if they make me seem silly afterwards for asking).
Maybe I misunderstood it, but my brain seriously went to the extreme of "they must never ever see each other"...
So basically, I read that just seeing a male can make a female, who wasn't showing any signs, suddenly become receptive.
I cant remember where I read it, and I've read so many things, also I seriously over think everything and thought maybe they should never ever see each other.
Also I have another question for you @Brodybreaux25 do you keep your males and females all in the same room? Right now Loki is upstairs because we were having repairs done, then I left him up there when I got Hela so I could keep her in quarantine. Do you think it would it be best to keep them...
Hmm.. No, not really..
This was this morning, I think I kinda freaked her out a little in this one.
This was earlier this week
This last one was from last week
She doesn't really have much in the way of color, mostly just green, shes got some yellow starting to show through on her...
