I'm going to post better pictures...
You're 100% correct-- put it over the enclosure-- chameleons are not from Virginia lol and the winter is is cold -- i have no choice but to get it for night just in-case we have those winter nights where inside heat isn't enough because the blazing wind is seeping through the window frame cracks.
Hey SocialNumb
my 4 weeks old baby panther did the same thing when i first put him in. he was shaking a little and he would always be upside down-- after 1 weeks of feeding him a lot with gut loading, spraying vitamins, feeding dusted insects he got a lot stronger and stopped doing that. you...
When I get home, I'll post pictures of the setup and let me know what you guys think.
They free range is 10 ft. away from each other. None can reach each other; they both mind their own business and do their own thing. They both have separate cages. The both large bamboo branches coming out of...
Actually the bamboo I have is best branch. I know what you mean about it being slippery. But I went to petco/petsmart those branches are so ugly, small so expensive for something so little.
I have a bamboo forest near where I live in Richmond, most of these bamboo
has branches sticking out of...
please put in 1 or 2 real plants. they know the difference between a fake and a real one.
you can only get the list of plants that are chameleon safe like how they rest on plants in the wild-- there are certain ones.
these plants are tropical and extremely hard to find. you can get pothos...
That makes sense. Before I bought my 2 chameleons 3 months ago when I did research on them and I saw few videos of a chameleon playing dead (in the wild)
I believe Veiled do that, somewhere in this forum i saw it -
That landing was a shock to the little panther guy- he was like wtf, looked...
He has branches, sometimes he rushes to get down and he'll fall. The carpet is good cushioning but yeah that 9ft. is high for him to call on.
I figured out why he fell, he'd climb all the way up, as soon as he sees left over crickets in his cage, he runs to get it- right when he gets close, he...
I setup a free roaming range. For some reason the 7 months old guy fell couple of times-- idk what he is trying to do but sometimes he runs across the bamboo that goes to the ceiling and sometimes he falls.
The floor is carpeted, when he lands he doesn't look hurt but he's shocked when he...
@Chameleonsthecoolest that's what I did-- I tore their room apart, thought he would be in a box or something or under something which is never the case. Then he suddenly emerges from his cage. idk how.
@AESara: that's funny and im sure this is likely-- that must have been frustrating and at the same time rewarding when you found him. I guess like go to high places bc on the bottom they are most likely to be eaten in the wild.
@Aves: that's funny but they never leave their cage from what i noticed-- they would much rather prefer not to get lost and leave their enclosure/environment.
My question is if they leave their enclosure do they know how to come back to it? Do they see and come back or smell and come back to...
Yesterday was a complete misery. I thought I lost my 7 weeks old $300 bucks panther with a special blend and it stressed me the hell out.
I'm starting to train my Chameleons to be free rangers at day time and night time back on their cage-- during work I feel terrible they're in their cages...
