They are absolutely awesome, I don't blame you! I'd love to have one of his babies but Chloe is my first Cham so I'd have to do a lot of research on them. Also, I couldn't remember if you'd tried raising hornworms or not. I've read several use hummingbird nectar when they change to moths, but...
Lol! I bet he was licking his chops afterwards! Too funny. Chloe has had a couple bigger ones with no problem. One was literally hanging onto a branch for dear life, half in her mouth half out, and she just ripped it right off and gobbled it up. She looked very proud of herself.
Thank you! They're my sweet babies. I have one other cat that's about 13yrs, he's too smart and an ass at times....
This is my Edison. He's been with me 13-14 yrs. This cat is still so smart, so big, he will outlive us all. I cannot get anything past this beast, he is aware of everything!!!!
My baby Marley has the sweetest spirit I've ever seen. She's so fluffy, only 7lbs at about 8yrs old. She has the sweetest spirit of any animal. I love this cat more than anything, Chloe is my next in line. Same sweet spirit...My baby Cham
Today, all puffed up
That is actually very good advice. Maybe if your parents had acces to care sheets?? Excellent advice! @jannb is also such a great source of advice. She's so very sweet and so knowledgable for anything veiled chameleon related! You have some really awesome sources here!
I sooo love the pic of your Cham reaching up to your cat's face!! Awesome pic, should be on my recent thread about "my funny chameleon" awesome pic, really
Oh I know, cats are a whole 'nother breed. I have an orange and white female that is the best cat ever, not too smart but the best cat I've ever had. My other is a 13yr old male grey/brown tabby that's too smart for his own good. They're the loves of my life, aside from my recent chameleon....
I can believe that. Snails that have been in water, whether dirty or not, can't be safe. Where do you order yours from? I'm very curious if my Cham would like them. She doesn't take to slow movers tho. Just today she stalked a hornworm until it started moving a little faster....lol!
Ok cool. So all these snails my brother gets on his live plants for his cichlid tank could be suitable for my Cham? I'm still worried about parasites...I've read y'all throw out the babies and maybe the eggs too? These things are very hardy so I'm very curious how to utilize them as feeders! Lol
You obviously came to this forum seeking help from experts, which you will find an endless number of here. I applaud you for reaching out and seeking help for your Cham, that's awesome! There's no harm in seeing a local vet's opinion, and then getting a second opinion! Second opinion here, as...
This thread caught my eye and the idea of snails as feeders is new to me, so I'm curious. Do you feed the whole snail to them? Shell and all? My brother has a fish tank and always gets snails, would those be ok? What's the deal with snails??
