Hi. . I am at a family gathering and they are trying to get rid of some plants, one of them is a Sabal palm looks like a pineapple on the bottom. Can’t find any info as to whether or not this is safe. Help please?

I lost her a few days ago. Was able to keep her alive for 5 days after the second vet visit but I don't think any of my efforts helped her. All I can do is pray they didn't HURT her and didn't cause her any more suffering or discomfort than she was already in. Some lessons learned: Buy...

I have no idea if this is the right section of the forum to write a review so, mods, please feel fee to move it or delete it if it's not. But I just had the most incredible chameleon purchasing experience I could have ever hoped for: the seller was Fram's Chams. I had heard good things...

Haven't purchased that stuff for my new cage yet so haven't figured that out yet, but I do remember from doing a slightly smaller cage that it got QUITE costly. Maybe Miss Skittles will chime in with her expertise. Sue

Scroll up. Miss Skittles posted a link for the round one and I recently added the link for the square one. Are either of them not working for you? Sue

It's a Dragon Strand cage and has drainage holes drilled into the PVC bottom which then puts the water into the drip tray. (y)

Just found this on Amazon, 24" square.... I think if I just cut the dividers out I'll be good to go. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09LS6MM2C/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A29QWE2BYUC94M&psc=1 Sue

Hmmmmm, good point. I can see standing water in the drainage layer of my bioactive set up that has the glass bottom - I didn't really that water was getting nasty so I better get in there and get some out. I was assuming it was dissipating and refilling on a regular basis but I will go set up...

Thanks for re-sharing your bioactive set up, MissSkittles. My male's cage is a bare bottom (with tons of potted plants and plant stands) but I am going to convert it to bioactive because I really like the bioactive set-up I have in the female's cage. Of course hers had a 6" tall glass bottom...

Thank you for sharing and for the important reminder. Sending best wishes to you and your Grump - she's in the best possible hands! Sue

Yes, she's on her regular misting schedule and I have even rinsed her body under gently running, warm water after each feeding, then put her back to her basking spot. Sue

Can I use the syringe to give her some warm RO/DI water? She seems interested in the water dripping from her dripper but I haven't witnessed her taking any of it in yet. Sue

I am using a 1 ml medical syringe and I would guess that I gave her about 1/2 a syringe 3 times today. I'm also wondering if I should leave it thin and runny or thicken it up a bit? Is there less chance of aspiration if I make it on the thick side? Sue

It's going surprisingly well with the force feeding of Critical Care - it almost seems like she wants it. So my question today is: is it possible to overfeed her the Critical Care? The technician at the vet's office that demonstrated placed maybe 1 drop from a syringe in the side of her...

Thanks. The emergency vet visit with the exotic pet doc including all meds and Critical Care was $281..... I thought that was fair. I appreciate the tips and advice on force-feeding and will try to incorporate them all. I was able to get a decent drop into the back of her throat when she...

Ahhhh, I like that idea! I was thinking credit card but guitar pick would probably be even easier to manipulate. Sue

THANK YOU for the helpful reply and I truly appreciate your best wishes! Nope, she wouldn't even eat a roach when she had an appetite, but it's a great suggestion for if I ever need to give meds to my male because he will eat ANYTHING, ANYTIME. Sue

Nope, won't need an appointment to drop off a fecal.... I just need her to provide me with one. :) Sue

I was very grateful that I was able to get her seen AT ALL yesterday - it hasn't been easy trying to find a vet in my state, let alone one who knows about chameleons, to disrupt their scheduled appointments to get me in on an hour's notice. So for that I will always be grateful to this...

Good Lord - the ever-growing cost of feeders since I have been ordering everything under the sun to try to get her to eat! And they go to waste because my other chameleon is overweight and on a diet! :rolleyes:
