Isn't it the same as using a open-flame gas heater for the house? We just bought two new ones when our central heat went out. Since it's so cold in Texas I'm surprised it isn't also cold in Florida we are about at the same latitude (I think that's the term?). I keep hearing it's warm there...

Here in central Texas half the water pipes in my house are frozen. Forgot to dribble the water. I have an old TX style home made of wood on pier and beam foundation. The crawl space under the house is too large to heat & get things thawing and it's only covered with lattice. One bathroom, the...

That makes sense; they probably think we'll eat their eggs. :eek: It's tough being a chameleon...:rolleyes:

OMG so cute!!

Oh, I see you are a senior member. my bad!

When I had a problem I was told to make sure how much water my cham was getting by forced watering with a syringe or eye dropper with pediolite and do the same with fish oil or olive oil to get him to poop (he did the next day). Of course the initial problem causing his "not eating/pooping"...

He needs to go to the vet asap. Shaking isn't good, he can't remain like that for long, it's too stressful on him. He's ill.

I'd written here before about the poor health & illness of my new adult male veiled cham "Romeo". He's had some health issues for which I took him to the vet for a emergency visit/check-up 4 days after I got him. He's finally healthy and normal now. I've only had him a month and have watched...

Oh, so you already have a cover. Oh well, just checking (smiles).

Guess it's probably too late but you could see if a pillow case fits over the container of sand and secure it so she couldn't crawl out. I don't think the eggs inside a egg-bound female will go bad as much as the problem being she'd get ill from not defecating, eating and a whole host of...

I didn't read all the posts, but I was told by senior members that: females will often not lay their eggs while being watched (important tip!). Kinda strange they want privacy...;)

Bless you heart, and your chameleon too!! I know it's devastating when you realize there is a problem, only too late. I know how it feels, something similar happened to me, and I'd found the forums too late. No on here even the most experienced members is born with any of the important...

One of the best things you can do for now is make 100% for sure that your linear-tube bulb (you have a reptiglow, right?) is a 5.0 reptiglow uvb, and since she's not eating give her pediolite (sugar w/salts & water for infants at the grocery store). It will keep her from starving, when not...

Such a pretty girl!!!

More light/ heat. I'd give him 12 hours of uvb light and make sure he's warm enough esp. if he's stressed or ill at least 85-92 degrees in the day, not less than 70 at night. It's good to start looking for a reptile specialist veterinarian as soon as you get a cham because there isn't as many...

Yep, I think the supper worms are the worst part of owning a cham. I don't feed mine many cause I hate'em!!!!! CREEPY!!!!:eek:

I think you cham is really cute; I have a veiled. I don't know anything about you breed.;)

LOL, it's "spill water"... Funny, I can't read, I was thinking you wrote "SPIT".... euwwww!

I was told it means: one male, one female, whether breeding or not.:)

Well, it does take a lot of research and self-educating. Better to do it now than learn when it's too late after something really bad happens. You'll get very attached to them fast! They are so fun, interesting and beautiful! I spend a lot of free time here to, but I don't have anyone around...
