Some soils are full of synthetic fertalizers and chemicals to aid in plant growth that would end up being toxic to a living being small as a chameleon is consistently ingested.
My little girl has way more spunk than my first cham who is an adult male. Yet she is way more shy than Samson, she tries to hide when I am around but she is suprisingly calm when handled. Whereas Cleo isn't as colorful as my male I still love her to death, all she needs is a little extra love...
Hah she looks just like my Cleopatra and shes a 4.5 month one. I bet yours is a little younger though, my limited experienced guess is that she is anywhere from 14-18 weeks old
I got my panther at 8 months and put him directly into a 2x2x4 cage, the biggest one I could find with a quick search of ebay. He had no problems in the cage as far as getting around or hunting went. I would just put the crickets on the screen and watch them to make sure they walked up the...
Spot on, my girl is roughly the same age. In fact, she just finished up her second shed yesterday just 21 days from her previous one which happened to be the first day of the new year. :)
Yeah I actually did a little reasearch and found out a few of those images were photo shopped just for us Packer fans. Lemme see if I can dig them up..... Anyways, I love the NFL and The Pack even more but I do have to admit that all this non stop hype about this game is got me to the point...
Haha yeah Jo, I am in your boat. I get clumsy and have escapees, for the most part I can find them in my bedroom but there is the occasional cricket that makes its way under the door and out into the living room. We have 3 cats too so they never last long out my room. I don't play around with...
I bought a timer from Mist King and it goes down to increments as small as a second. I remember seeing some minute timers at Wal-mart or the local hardware store, those should work just as well unless you need to break it down beyond a minute.
So it looks like the NFC Championship game is going to be more exciting than the Superbowl itself. For those not aware, the Green Bay / Chicago rivalry is one of the most intense in the NFL. Spanning over 180 games since their first meeting in 1921! Both teams are some of the best in the NFL...
Why do you suspect it could be the vitamins you are giving him?
Here are a few pics of how I dust my crickets when I feed them:
This last pic is of a cricket that has way too much powder on it. Is that how your looks? Could this be why you have such suspisions?
If she is female and you can closely control her environment, it maybe possible for you to prolong the period in which she lays eggs by recreating this senario:

Head to your local hardware store to find the fixtures for your lights. You can find all the lighting you need there with the exception of the proper UVB bulb, probably going to want to head to the reptile shop for that.
I got a ceramic dome lamp for just a few bucks and I got 2 24" linear...
Your going to use a few large rubbermaid tubs to keep the insects in. I use a total of 4 different ones at the moment; 2 crickets, 1 superworms, 1 huge one for the dubia colony. I have another set on hand cleaned so when I need to clean out the bins its an easy transfer. I had to cut...
I know right?! I can't believe I was able to actually put down the beer and cheese long enough to pick up a camera let alone get a decent pick seeing as how it's after 3pm and I am sloppy drunk......but no.
