Ah I was thinking plexiglass as the actual door, you mean shower curtain as a removable cover right? The pieces I need are only $10 so if it does get scratched or turns out to be a bad idea I can always replace them or try something new. My boyfriend is not interested in trying again right now...

My cham used the background to climb on, It was really more for me, I just didnt like the look of a screen in the back, it felt so exposed. The plexi glass is also for me, although I clearly need help with humidity, Id like to see clearly through to the cham but I dont want him stressed by...

I was concerned with mean/mad panthers, veileds seem pretty pleasant. I cant see spending $300 on something that I may or may not kill within a year, Im sure the cham is worth it, I just want to have a higher success rate before I try that. Im back to veiled or jacksons, Im leaning towards a...

Silly reason, but the cham was a Christmas present and I chose it based on size and because my bf liked the look. Not to say I didnt fully research them, or felt like I had, but I thought they were pretty hardy. Panthers seem like they may get too big, and seem to be mean? or less friendly? We...

I unfortunately do not have a reptile vet here, Im on a island and cant take the cham on a plane to a vet without a vets approval :( I was under the impression that this was a captive born cham, I got him when he was very wee. If I do try again I will be buying a misting system so theres no...

So it is indeed too late. So other than temp, which I think is fixed, what in the future if I ever do get another should I keep a watch on? I still dont really know what killed him

Ive lowered the temp, I think hes probably dead but the temp is cooler at the bottom the tank, Ill spay him again but I think its to late. He stopped moving last night, occasionally grabbed my finger but thats it

Alright well, he was hanging by one foot upside down when I came home, wouldnt move very much and barley opened his eyes, I know he isnt going to make it past tonight. I layed him down in the pothos pot so he wouldnt fall when he died. Still dont know what could have caused such a sudden death...

Humidity is at 75%ish before I sprayed, temp under light is around 87F and the rest of the cage is low 70s. Hes still grabbing pretty strongly but he kinda flops around and looks very sleepy. He wont open his mouth for pedylite, and Im afraid to force it open. Not sure what else to do? I think...

Sadly I know thats a bad sign, I actually think its less napping and more of dying unfortunatley. How low of a watt can I go while still keeping it warm? I had a blue day light, it was much cooler but someone said that it might hurt his eyes, and maybe that would cause squinting but I changed it...

Our house is constantly steamy from showers/washer/dryer/dishwasher due to poor ventilation, the cham just happens to be in dry backroom:( His current cage due to the pothos is to heavy, but assume he surives, would it be crazy to have a smaller mesh cage to bring him into the hot steamy...

Sorry cage sounds odd to me and tank is misleading, hes in a fully screen enclosure, the back of it is cork bark, I got it for looks and because he liked to climb on it. I have a dripper going all day at a pretty rapid drip, theres a bin at the bottom that catches the water and theres a pothos...

He was flown up here about a 8 to 9 months ago, he gapes at night when its cool also, so I dont think its fully the heat, that 92f was from when I had the heat in the room cranked up do to it being freezing cold outside, Ill check again today and see what a normal temp is. The rest of the tank...

I started a thread a week ago when my cham wasnt to bad just weirdly squinting, only three people commented but I got no answers, this is now an emergency. Chameleon Info: • Your Chameleon - Jacksons, male, Atleast 7 months old • Handling - very rarley • Feeding - Crickets, and meal worms...

Well, the last two days his eyes opened up but mostly hes sleeping almost all day or laying with his eyes closed he does open them and move when I disturb him. He now runs away with his eyes closed when I spray the tank with water, even warm water. He is not drinking or eating still. Ive...

Doesn't look to hard I guess but price is suddenly an issue. Here in town they sell the metal frame for $14 you can get four 36" pieces with rubber tubing and 4 corner pieces. Im looking at needing 12-32" 9-30" 4-25" 16-16" and 2 5" thats 33-36" and with 4 in a package thats 9 packages thats...

Yet another post from me this week! So Im going to try and build my own screen cage, Im wondering it its possible to get a screen door/window screen kit or pieces and build a tank that way? We dont have a home depot or anything like that here where I live, so if I cant find the stuff at a local...

OK I will turn the heater off tonight. He finally opened one of his eyes today after I disturbed him to try and get him to drink, he moved around a bit and I sprayed the tank hoping he would drink but he didnt. We live in a very very wet climate so Im not to worried about him drying out but I...

Anyone anyone? Bueller Bueller? Well I havent heard anything from anyone on here so Im getting worried that no one has any answers. But I thought Id post the temps just in case anyone is still listening. This morning one of his eyes looks a little bit more open, I spent all afternoon trying to...

Update, he still has his eyes closed, he isnt drinking at all, I imagine because he cant see. This is two days without water and Im stressing out, spraying the tank down isnt going to rehydrate him so whats my next option for getting him to drink? Ive tried dripping on his lip but its not working
