    My cham is dark today

    Well you and your wife enjoy wonderful little Rango! I like the name too. It’s good to let them get real sun every once in a while. Mine loves going on walks with me I don’t let him climb to my head. He has to stay on my hand or cling to the front of my shirt. I am so terrified of a bird...

    New chameleon owner I rescued him in bad shape HELP ME!

    Since you are going to upgrade the cage eventually, get a 24” reptisun uvb T8 5.0. They have a hood and bulb combo pack that works pretty well also Bend a Branch on Amazon is great for creating a climbing gym. Get medium and large. They are inexpensive. You can cover the back wall and one side...

    New chameleon owner I rescued him in bad shape HELP ME!

    Hello and thank you for trying to save this poor fellow. You said you ordered carnivore care from Amazon. Ask the vet for a couple of feeder syringes for it. It’s a syringe with a rubber tube on the end cut at a slant so you can work it between clenched jaws. Here’s a pic of one. Mix a small...

    My cham is dark today

    When they are that young small crickets is a great feeder to get them used to using their tongue and targeting. When mine was that young he was terrified of a small hornworms I tried with him.

    Hurricane Prep and Reptiles

    Love all of your suggestions. I just want to share a thing that did for all the years I spent in Florida. I stored everything in large unused trash cans that way I could empty my Xmas decor out of one for example and I had a large clean container to store water in for after the storm passed...

    Should you have substrate in an outside cage where the temps get hot or potted plants

    One thing I noticed that I want to ask you about is uvb rays can’t go through glass and I see you have no uvb light on the cage. Is the cage put all the way outside or just next to the sliding glass like in the pics. Also if the substrate is getting moisture then you are going to have a mildew...

    Any suggestions?

    Hi and welcome. Make sure the breeder has full info on the Champion like date of birth, parents, get pic of the parents and never buy a Cham younger than four months. if the breeder doesn't go over your husbandry with you, run! They don't care. Get your cage together and have a husbandry...

    Hatchling with one bulging eye

    If the eye gets better after each misting, possibly dry eye issue. I got an ointment for my chams eye for that issue previously from the vet. Its called Well I will just take a pic. But I seriously doubt a hatchling that young can be treated. I say continue with the extra misting and pray s/he...

    URGENT PLEASE HELP! POSSIBLE MOUTH ROT?

    That's A better view. Unfortunately he is going to need internal antibiotics from a vet. I think anesthesia is extreme at this point but miss Skittles was thinking it may be a abcess. I don't think its that type of infection but whatever it is its spreading. I personally have not had a Cham...

    URGENT PLEASE HELP! POSSIBLE MOUTH ROT?

    Is there anyway you can get some pics of the inside of his mouth? That way we can see if its in the mouth or an outside wound. In the meantime, I would flush the area by squirting saline solution on it and try to remove any debris with a q-tip. After cleaning it you can dab a bit of Neosporin...
