I usually do it this way, first and third Friday of the month is calcium with D3, and second and fourth Friday is the multivitamin.
That was the schedule I was using when I was feeding every day, now that I have switched to every other day I alternate, every 4th meal I give either multivitamins...
Male veiled, should be somewhere around 8-9 months old, doesn’t shed but maybe once every month and a half? And when he sheds not all of it comes off for a couple of weeks. He just seems smaller to me then normal Chams his age that i’ve Seen. Eats normally. Looks healthy, just small.
Here’s a comparison, KP has been rather dark lately. Staying consistantly dark brown with dark greens everyday like these colors in the first pictures, ever since the move esspecially. So He was that darkish brown color before the shower. But this is what he looked like after, This is how I...
Just wanted to let everyone know that I was able to compromise for a little while longer so that I would not have to get rid of my scaley prehistoric friend, pretty stoked about that. Wanna day that after his new enclosure was done, after teaching my parents proper big care and chameleon feeding...
there’s a possibility that I will be working abroad for about 6 months out of the year, for the next few years. I have moved back to Texas and brought him to my parents house to see how they do with taking care of him,
But the fact of the matter is no one will take care of a Cham properly...
I believe KP was stressing out because he didn’t have enough cover because his pothos died when I ripped out the coconut husk cause he kept eating it so I revamped his enclosure, Check it out!
I’m planning on adding a few variations of live plants into the enclosure for KP for more coverage so he will feel more at Ease, also need to just fill the enclosure. I have two fluffy ruffle ferns and a mass cane (draceanea) that I’m curious about, all plants have been washed with alcohol and...
KP made the trip to Texas, and made it here safe and sound. He spent about 29 hours inside of his makeshift road enclosure considering he was sleeping when I got home. So I set everything up and left him be in there, then put him in his enclosure in the morning. He was very active, very relaxed...
Well that’s a given, we can’t talk with our Chams so we base our ideas of their own emotions off of body language and colors. Multiple studies show that NORMALLY a veiled chameleon will produce a lighter shade of color whenever they feel at ease. I’m sure there is stress, that’s obvious due to...
Thought light colors meant relaxed and darker colors were stressed?
The more relaxed the Cham is the lighter shade of green, It’s like whenever they go to sleep they turn a very bright neon green because they are very relaxed, that was my understanding after doing a lot of reading.
So get this, I decided since I’m leaving out early in the morning that I wanted to go ahead and break down all of KP’s stuff that I needed to move (and holy crap is it a lot of stuff) so I decided to put him in his “voyage home” the container I made for him for his trip, so that he would already...
That actually makes a lot of sense, I fed him about 50 minutes before lights out cause I was taking him in and out prepping him for his voyage so I fed him a treat.
He’s also not eating, hasn’t touched any of his food but I’m gonna assume he’s just stressed out from all the change
I fed Kp 3 larva last night as a treat, today I check and I noticed there was a dropping hanging from the thermometer. Turns out that 2 out of the 3 undigested larva were dead and clearly just passed through, BUT ONE WAS STILL ALIVE! It was connected in the urate of the dropping.
Couple of...
Oh and btw I’m not planning on standing the tub upright vertically, for the sake of having more stability it’s gonna ride just like it is in my back seat with the seat belt on to ensure the safest of travels.
