Have you thought of having a necropsy done on one or two of the deceased babies? Having a vet swab a live baby, skin tape test, etc may also give results. The stress of a vet trip may be to much for that particular baby, but it might just save the rest of the clutch if they find fungal or...

@ashley_krynicky : Here's an interesting thread on the "personality differences" of the three most common chameleons (Veileds, Panthers, Jacksons): https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/general-personality-differences-of-jackson-panther-and-veiled-just-a-discussion.8157/page-2#post-1237503

Gorgeous!

Pfft are you mocking me for obsessively taking photos of my incredibly gorgeous, perfect and amazing-in-every-conceivable-way chameleon on his 9 month birthday? Well... that's actually pretty fair! lol Oh well. Thankfully he doesn't seem to mind my iPhone since I switched the case, so me...

I'm snooping lol but I love that powder blue! Wow

9 months old!

Just got a nice picture of Vladislav's full sister from the same clutch! She's a real looker... Vladislav's Sister by MissLissa posted Jan 2, 2016 at 12:37 AM

That's a lovely enclosure, @xraygirl ! @Mahal347 : you are going to definitely need more branches and foliage in that enclosure to provide the proper perching and hiding options. Are you feeding anything other than crickets? What kind of lighting are you using?

Please fill out the "how to ask for help" form found here: https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/how-to-ask-for-help.66/ It will give a very comprehensive overview of your cham's environment, etc, and help give us a better idea of what is going on.

No problem :) If you have any difficulties; the people here are usually really supportive and helpful. Do you have a source for branches? If not, try the bird section of your local petstore: they usually have a bunch of pet-safe natural branches in a variety of sizes, and depending on your...

I'm not sure I understand you question. If you mean, "what do I do once the shower is over", well, you put him back in his enclosure to let him bask and dry off. If you mean "I'm not sure how having indirect water would help- how could he drink that?", let me explain: Their "casques" (the...

My chams lights are set to come on at 7am and go off at 7pm. The sun is up only from 9am to 3pm here right now, so I can't really use the sun to decide what my chams' sleep schedule is or else he'd have to sleep sleep for 20 hours a day!

Just a little thing I made, showing his growth so far. The last photo is pre-shed when he never looks his best; I don't have any good ones after his most recent shed. It's shower day tomorrow, so I'll grab a new one then :) Growth From July to Dec 2015 by MissLissa posted Jan 1, 2016 at 7:10 PM

Why so serious, Melleri? (S)He's gorgeous :) Nice find!

Star Wars! Yes. This is good. Please post a picture; I'd love to see that enclosure! And you cham, of course, can't forget him. Like Lathis said, there is a ton of really good info on here; there is always more to learn :) Welcome to the forum!

One way is to hang several (as in, more than two) branches across that empty space, then twine real or fake vines around the top ones to create a cascade/curtain effect for lower branches. Horizontal branches are more important than vertical branches- though you could include one or two more...

Maybe the question isn't "how can they live longer" but "should they". A shorter, healthy and robust life seems to me better then a long, drawn out life of discomfort... but I'm sure there are those who would disagree with me; and that's okay too.

Wouldn't this be anecdotal, at best? It's not like anyone has published a comprehensive panther chameleon study on the effects of a given supplementation regimen on longevity (at least, not that I've found). I once met a lady whose dachshund lived for 18 years eating nothing but peanut butter...
