Well went to Vet this morning to switch out the meds. They said they did not have the Ceftazadime but they looked up in their resources and said that the new med like Cedtazadime is Naxcel. They said it has the same make up and was basically the same...
So now I have 5 injections of Nexcel for...
Defiantly a male. I caught him pooping and man parts were pushed out. This and eggs in females are only visual signs of sex in Melleri.
Took Taco to vet this evening. My local general doc listened to the research I discovered on this site and did his own examination. Said there was a little...
I've had Taco, a Mellers Chameleon for a year now. Same cage, set-up and location. Never handle and same diet. over the past week he has stopped eating. He just completed a full body shed so I thought that might be the reason for the fast, but over the past 3 days he is acting strange. He is...
Taco Showering by scchameleon posted Mar 4, 2016 at 9:33 AM
Here he is getting a shower. This makes him so happy. When the misters come on even if he is not thirsty he will get under water and do this.
I run 15 to 20 gallons of water through my system every week. I have 2 MistKing nozzles on either side of my 5 foot enclosure. I have my system set on 3 20 minute watering times a day. Taco usually chooses different times to drink each day. But he drinks a lot each day as someone mentioned...
Bakedno,
Congrats on the Mellers! They are awesome Chameleons! I have had mine for about 60 days now. A couple of things that have made my Cham happy and healthy are below:
1. I mist my guy with a Mistking for 20 minutes at 9AM and 3PM. I also give him a splash for 5 minutes at 5:00 right...
Thanks for the responses guys. I have tried the website and I haven't been able to find pictures to compare mine to. My Cham does have sort of a pear shape so maybe it is a she. ?
I've been to all of the websites and I am aware that it is almost impossible to sex one of these unless you get eggs. I was observing Taco (my girls named her/him said his body looked like a hard shell taco - HA) and he turned his back to me and started to poop. I grabbed my phone and took some...
My Melleri is doing great. She is more interested in her surrounding everyday. I have had her for 20 days now.
Check out her diy enclosure I completed for her. All materials were bought at Lowes or HD. It is 6ft tall, 2 feet deep, and 4 feet wide. She seems to be comfortable.
Got another question for you guys. I've seen mixed answers on this. How often do you supplement calcium, calcium w/ D3, and multivitamins?
The only thing I have given her feeders right now is a dusting of Repashy Calcium Plus LoD twice a week.
Thanks Carlton
I haven't seen her rub her horn in my care and the injury looks to be superficial. I hope a full body shed is coming soon. Yesterday after my post both eye sockets shed. Thought that was odd but she got rid of the excess skin fairly quick.
She is eating a good bit each day...
Searched the forum for a couple of questions unsuccessfully. I got a Meller's 2 weeks ago (LTC) and everything is going great! He/She is eating everyday and drinking everyday. I have it in a large converted metal shelf that I got at Lowes. She seems to love it. I haven't seen her climb on the...
