I have bought an adult male Veiled Yemen chameleon with his enclosure from private about three months ago and he was in a very poor condition - extremely scared, very small for a male and extremely thin - see the first attached picture how thin he was at pickup. He is about 2-3 years old. I...

My female is finally laying her eggs. At least I think that's what she is doing. She has dug a deep hole (about 30cm diagonally into an earth-sand mix) yesterday morning, then turned round and has been sitting there for a whole day and a whole night, motionlessly. Her eyes are alert and she has...

Thank you Brody, much appreciated! I will do so. Repti, the eggs are not laid yet...

Thanks, this was helpful for me, too. Do I transfer the eggs immediately after they were laid? How do I pick them up - with my fingers, with a spoon? And do I need to clean them from the dirt before they go into the incubator?

Oh, everyone else is of course welcome to give me advice, too, not just Repti. Thank you all for your compassion and help!

Hello Repti, thank you for your advice. I indeed kicked out the 20-litre flower pot and replaced it with a 60x50x50 cm square 100-litre container filled with a moist mix of sand and earth yesterday (about 1.5 foot deep). I also went with my Lizzie to the reptile vet yesterday and we had an x-ray...

I found her! She was standing in front of the balkony door this morning, ice-cold and wheezy, and is just warming up on my breast underneath my clothes right now. I will take her to the vet later today to exclude pneumonia and get some medication and/or advice. Lizzie must have either climbed...

Hmm, that's bad news. I hope the best.

Thank you!

Sorry, I am aware that we are discussing my issues in the wrong thread, perhaps if someone could point me to a more suitable one? To the asker in this thread: I have recently bought an adult male who is a very bad eater, too, although he is now in the same environment and gets the same food as...

Dig tunnels??? My (probably highly pregnant) female has a 20l flower pot filled with earth (compost soil mixed with desert sand) in her mesh vivarium which is quite large (60x60x90 cm, which is about twice the size you were talking about, as 12'' are 30 cm, with the flower pot filling at least a...

I am asking this because my chameleon girl has escaped outside and we could not find her. The temperature is 8°C/ 47°F here in Southern England right now (evening) and will drop to about 0°C/32°F at night in a few days. It usually does not get any colder than that here in winter. I wonder...

I am brand-new here and I live in England. I am looking for local breeders and/or chameleon owners. I live in Southern England, near Brighton, and I have a pair of chameleons and want to attempt to breed them for the first time. I have had lots of experience with reptiles (snakes, mainly...

Oh, is this a world-wide forum? I am brand-new here and I live in England. I am also looking for local breeders and/or chameleon owners. I live in Southern England, near Brighton.

I have a Yemen Veilded female called "Lizzie" who is very healthy, happy and round (she might be gravid meanwhile) and weighs 210 grams. She is about 1.5 years old and I have raised her from a baby. A few months ago I have adopted a 2 year old male called "Yoshi" and I wonder whether he is...

Wow! I have learned a lot from this one thread alone which I just picked by chance. Thank you! I am brand-new here. I have one question. Someone mentioned: "at her age, she should always have a laying bin available". How would such a laying bin have to look like?
