thanks for your help guys, at the moment my uv light is attached with two plastic loops/cable ties and im worried if i take the plastic cover off the heat will melt these ties?
Also the bulb is only 4 months old, only had him since christmas.
Un fortunately he wont be going outside as i live...
Thanks for replying guys, ill take it out of the plastic cover asap I wasn't aware that affected it, but how do u guys attach the bulb to the top of the vivarium?
I use the one u recommend on here, the repti sun, can't remember what its called but I know its the one you all say is the best :)
Hi guys,
This may sound a little strange but hoping you can all help me and put my mind at rest if need be. I've been reading the threads this morning on MBD and getting increasingly concerned about my chameleon as he's getting bigger and the more i look at his front legs the more i think he...
Hahahahahaha this is hilarious!!!!! :D:D:D This is exactly what i do!!!!
Every morning i run into my front room to see Calvin, im like a child on xmas morning!! And i have a little conversation with him......i even say good bye as im leaving the house hahahaha!! :D:D
Such a funny thread!!!
Ok this is quite bizzare...but here goes...
I sometimes handfeed Calvin mealworms for the odd treat, but lately he's been quite odd. I put the meal worm in the palm of my hand and it moves, so i'm guessing he can see it, but instead of grabbing the meal worm with his tongue he goes for the...
Urrrm all of ur replies have confused me and stressed me out! I dnt know what's up-something is different coz he's way more active than usual!! Did some one say they've looked at one of my pics and thinks he's a male?
Ill fill out a help form
Thanks guys
Hi everyone,
Just after a little bit of advice.
Had Calvin since christmas now and he's been doing really well with me. Unfortunately i'm going through a breakup at the moment and as bizarre as it sounds i want to know if chameleons can pick up on stress etc? I only ask as his behaviour...
whats alfalfa grass?
Ye i think that's where i might be going wrong- i do tend to put too much lettuce etc in their tank.
Thanks guys for the help, hope i'll keep them alive longer now :)
Urrm yep sorry meant laterally flat-as if he's flat to the ground haha! Jst wntd to check its normal and not coz he's stressed or anything :) thanks everyone :)
Hey everyone,
My chameleons growing fast now (just over 4 months old) and as he's getting bigger his habits/body language is changing. I havent had a chameleon before so just wanted to check that his recent behaviour is normal.
It may sound like quite a dim/thick question but do...
Hi everyone,
The one problem i've come up against whilst having my chameleon is caring for its food!! I'm still trying to get to grips with it but struggling!!
Right...to explain..i feed my chameleon hoppers (baby locusts-not mice as some of you refer to them as hoopers :) ) i buy about 3...
yep, heard people saying they grow fast before i had him...but u really have to have one to believe it...i swear he grows in front of my eyes!! haha!! Think he's due another shed now :)
I'd like to think i will in years to come, although think i have a lot to learn first :) but i do just love chameleons more than ever now i have one of my own :D
My little chap hates being misted too!! I've persevered and kept spraying in the hope he'll start to like it...he'll sit there for a few seconds and then decide..."i hate this" and legs it to the back of his tank....then sits there looking very annoyed!! haha!!
wanted to share some pics of Calvin with you. He's 17 weeks old now and i really cant believe how fast he has grown!!! I absolutely adore him and he's so entertaining!! I'm considering selling my tv as i've hardly watched it since i've had him and my boyfriend is starting to get jealous coz i...
