Most pets don't need the care chameleons do. So people don't know what they are getting into when they buy them. It should be up to the pet store to know these things and advise the person who is buying the chameleon of how much care is required. I bought my first chameleon blindly not knowing...

It looks like your Chameleon has Metabolic Bone disease (MBD). His arms are bowed which are actualy fractures, and the hump in his back is also caused by the MBD. He needs a vet badly.

I handle my panther daily. Some times a few times a day only for short periods. He loves the attention. Some times I see him reaching for me when I walk buy. Such a friendly little guy. Some people say they aren't smart enough to develop a relationship with their owners. My chameleon doesn't...

You should just remove one of the 5.0 and put a 6500k tube in. They work well for growing live plants.

I thought the same with my first cage setup. I find if the chameleon wants light he will hang out up top in the UVB light. And that's what he does. He never goes to the bottom. Please update with results.

I was responding to lolcakes, sorry. Remove one of the 5.0 UVB lights. It's too much UVB. I used to use a 10.0 in my panthers cage. I found it made his colors dull. The next morning when he woke up his colors would be nice till the 10.0 UVB lights came on. I switched to 5.0 and this made a huge...

Seeing as he isn't eating much I would be gutloading your feeders well to make sure he is getting as much nutrition as possible. My chameleon only eats 2 or 3 feeders a day. But because I gutload this sustains him. As for using mineral oil I wouldn't as mineral oil isn't water soluble. Once...

What do you have for his water source? What are you using for UVB lighting? What are his basking temps? What is his humidity? What do you use for vitamin supplements? Are you gutloading? Did the vet take a fecal sample to test for parisites?

Wow. I don't remember school being fun like that. Kid's busting wood in half, I'm a Peace Officer and I can't bust wood in half like that :eek: Also never learned about Chameleon's or did anything entertaining like that. I'm jealous.

lol a fart, nice.

Two weeks? He's quite large fro Two weeks. Maybe it's just the picture.

Wow you guys have the drip set very slow. And your chameleon has the patience to wait 1.5 minutes for a drop of water? Makes me wonder if I need to set mine for a drop a second. :confused: It's probably fine as I see my chameleon drink from it daily.

I would say too much. you can get rid of one of the 24" 5.0 you only need one, put it away and save it for later when you need to change out the one your using as they are only good for 6 months. You can then replace it with a 6500k 24" which will be good for growing plants. You can also get red...

My panther has done this before. When he does it I stick him under his basking light. It seems to recharge him and get him going again. How ever you said yours was under the basking light all day. Maybe he is getting sick. I agree with solidsnake. Keep an eye on him. And maybe fill out the how...

thats the same video that Solid posted.

Carol can I have one of your monster sized Panthers?

But it kept the chameleon alive!

LOOK! LOOOOOK! You will always wonder if you don't.

Sounds like your Cage could use a good cleaning. If your Chameleons poop smells horribly bad it could be that your chameleon had parasites. Just keep an eye on it, or a nose rather. Keep your tank clean and see if his poop is the cause. Then you will need to take a fresh sample of the poop to a...

RUTHLESS! :eek:
