    Won't even eat silkworms :(

    You should do the form as well but it sounded similar to my issues and it's often better to temporarily solve a problem before finding out the cause. In the case of a starving Cham surely feeding and then solving later is better? Especially as chameleons can go down hill so fast.

    Best age to tame chameleon.

    I've had my veiled since he was 4 months old and since day 1 he has been an absolute joy to handle. I never forced him out of his cage. But the moment I come in or walk anywhere near his cage he walks to the glass and claws to get out. He will sit on my shoulder as I potter around the house, and...

    Try to be patient and don't be hesitant just be calm and you won't stress him to much :) Good luck hopefully it will kick start his eating :)

    Won't even eat silkworms :(

    Hi, ive recently had a similar problem with my Cham, I've got a veiled who's only 5 months and he recently went on a hunger strike. I was so worried about him and although I'm not a particularly experienced chameleon husband he is now eating and drinking and has even begun to shed after only 2...

    We're suplementing him with komodo premium insect dusting powder (specifically designed for chameleons according to the tub) We put this on his worms/crickets everyday. We were happy to do this because of the dealer having had successfully used it to rear her brood of chameleons (near on...

    Defiantly a he, the reptile dealer had just last week lost a female due to it not laying and getting egg bound. As we are beginners she felt it better we get a male. He's got spurs on his back feet so he's defiantly a boy. Now maybe i'm being over involved in my chameleons excretion but he's...

    It's definitely a he, spurs and all! He's probably still a bit unsure then, and hopefully he'll go green as he was before. He used to be in a smaller cage with a few of his bros/sisters at the reptile centre and still green, seemed like a happy guy. Thanks for the welcome and advice! :)

    Brilliant thanks! Not used to animals that pee solids... Also, we've only had him for less than a week - when he was in the reptile shop he was a lovely bright green with turquoise, and when we handle him he is usually pretty green, but in his cage he's kind of a brown. Do you think he's...

    I've read the old posts about healthy urate and poo, but just had a quick question as we are so new to chameleons! We have a male veiled around 5 months old and have just witnessed the first poo. Said poo looks healthy and fine. BUT we also got a white lump the same size. We know there is...

    Excited but want some advise!

    Hi, I'm new to the forums, I've been looking into getting a reptile for some time, and after a visit to a local gardening centre/reptile dealer (lovely relaxed place with some very happy helpful people), I've got the Cham bug! I've yet to buy because I've got a few questions for some of...
