Update: It's getting worse but still no help from this forum or any facebookgroup unfortunately. Please can someone take some time to read everything and give me some advice? Since my last vet apointment (16/10/2015) his paw is getting more and more ugly. Today I think he bumped his paw...

I went to the pharmacy to weigh him. He's 3,122 grams. Afterwards I put him on a plant to check how his appetite was. Good thing: He has appetite Bad thing: I did not expect to see this happen... :( Let's hope he'll try again soon... https://youtu.be/nWAslaAMzQY

Today's update. I think he closed his eye a little bit because of the camera. Neck is still swollen

Hey People are often talking about the D3 or the phosphor or the beta carotene or whatever in powder supplements. I never have any clue why this is all so important, so now I just want to know for everything in the box what it is for. What happens when they have lack of it? What happens...

Hey, thanks for the info. I assume you are talking about the powdering of feeders for adult chameleons? How about the frequencies for a young and growing chameleon? For my adults I guess i'm doing fine with the calcium without D3. So only the calcium with d3 and vitamins I need to do less...

The Problem – I bought my chameleons on 27/09/2015 at a reptile fair in Belgium (first picture is taking on my way home). I saw the male’s paw was swollen but bought him anyway and went to the vet with him. I was concerned about it being gout or an infection. Verdict from the vet: * IN...

People recommended me the desinfection product f10. You should google it, and you can easily buy it online. It should be harmless for your plants and reptiles. This is what I did: - Threw everything out - Boiled my drainage layer (hydroballs) for 30 minutes - Rinsed all the earth of my plants...

"Woooooow : o : ( " That was my first reaction when I opened the first photo you posted of your darling... I don't know much about chameleon illnesses, but what I do know is that an alarm bell instantly starts ringing when seeing his front leg... I truely hope people who intent to buy their...

Anyone who can explain this to me?

Hi I am keeping pygmy chameleons at home, and I noticed that sometimes their gums are blue and sometimes pink/red. I didn't notice if it differs intra-individual or inter-individual, as it's been a long time since I noticed the blue mouth with another pygmy than the one I saw now with the...

I'm absolutely in love with R. acuminatus, and would just love to keep some! But is it true that this is one of the most endangered species in nature of all pygmus that are circulating on the market?

How should be vote? I can't seem to find it.

Ok, damn, I was figuring out gout, so my alarm bell started to ring. I'll call my vet tomorrow and tell him it's more urgent then I thought. Anything I can do for him in the mean time? I can't go to the vet tomorrow because of work and deadlines, I hope he's not in too much pain and that it...

Current problem: Today I bought a temporalis male (wc, adult) with an injured/swollen paw. So next step: fix it. Anyone with similar experiences? Vet appointment is only later this week, but while doing research, I'm starting to get the feeling this might be an urgent issue... Chameleon...

I was wondering how many times your pygmy chameleon has shed in his/her life. If still alive, how old is he/she now? And what kind of pygmy are you talking about? Anyone who can tell me the age at which point they shed? (I know shedding is size related, but just to get an idea)

With how many wild caught chams would you start (male/female)? The next info comes out of my course about laboratory animal, it might be far from the answer you are looking for, but anyway, it might help. *** The formula of Wright says that the increase of endogamy per generation (taking...

Although this post is already from June, I was wondering if anyone could tell me what these red spots were. I still haven't found the answer.
