Tillandsia Streptophylla are very sturdy, and kind of look like a xerographica if you're into the more modern look. If you're not into the look of them though, almost all airplant species are pretty good at living. As for price, however, a single plant is typically around $5-$7usd. I've seen...
First one looks like a tillandsia stricta to me. You have very beautiful plants too. From my own experience and that of a few of my associates, these guys seem to make around 3 pups in their bloom, nothing too crazy and they can definitely be a good addition to your enclosure.
From what I understand some breeders try to speed up the incubation process by messing w/ the incubation temperature. (I would not recommend doing this as it can cause birth defects in the hatchlings). If this was the case w/ your cham I doubt it would have epigenetic effects and pass down...
Repashy LoD is specifically made for species of reptiles w/ low vitamin D requirements, and D3 in large amounts can hurt your cham in the long run. Even panthers have a recommended D3 intake of once every two weeks. The Repashy Calcium plus LoD is supposed to be used every insect feeding, which...
They'll typically stay more elevated unless they feel like there's a reason to be on the ground. Free-ranging probably isn't the best if you need to herd them into their cage multiple times. If your cham is nice and happy with his enclosure he'll try to climb back in when he wants to feel safer...
Think of it like how we take daily vitamins (or if you don't, think of it like how we all need a daily dosage of certain things to stay healthy and alive) Chameleons have more variety of food in the wild, and wild bugs have their own wider variety of food. We supplement to make sure they get...
I think I worded this wrong. What I meant initially was that this seems more like everyone feeling like their relationship w/ their chameleons are in some way seen as less valid than someone else's. I didn't think anyone actually hated one another.
We all love our chameleons. I don't think it...
I think we have trouble grasping it because it's similar to trying to imagine what we'd be like w/o abstract thought. Everyone wants to believe their pet loves and trusts them. And that's completely understandable, I fully believe a chameleon can "Trust" you but I think that's less of an emotion...
I think Brody had a great point and good intentions. Now, however, I think it's safe to say that we should turn the subject back to op and their watery-eyed chameleon. I'm sure by now they understand that the reason their chameleon is exhibiting certain behaviors is not due to loneliness or...
There's nothing to say chameleons are conscious of what they feel or how they express themselves and their colors. If a chameleon is doing something reminiscent of emotion-driven responses I think you should look at it critically regardless of whether or not you believe your cham is just...
I agree w/ Kinyonga. It sounds like your cham is stressed in its current enclosure and is trying to get to a place it feels safer. I don't think watery eyes are related to that unless he got something stuck in his eye when he was on the ground in your room. Can you post pics of his enclosure?
Do they feel soft to the touch? Like soft as in kind of flimsy and extra squishy. It might be the angle of the photos but I'm not seeing any veins/blood vessels in either of the eggs.
Egg crates are probably the best option here. You don't have to use a substrate to maintain humidity, which sounds like it isn't optimal for you anyway if you're having trouble finding the roaches. If you're breeding them and need to think about humidity a ceramic heat emitter, and some water...
(Assuming this is the right place to post this~) I've been lurking these forums for admittedly too long and noticed a common theme, there doesn't seem to be a lot of information about translucent veiled chameleons. Anywhere. From what I've seen you have to dig in countless different sources...
