Congrats! They're amazing. =)

She is stunning! I've seen pictures before where you see some random color pop through the normal pink/peach but never this much or so diverse. Absolutely beautiful. :cool:

I've had my girl longer and she still won't eat from my hand. She'll let me take her out without getting cranky but won't eat from my hand. This guy gets slightly puffy when I open his enclosure so getting him out alone is a challenge. Then for him to be comfortable enough afterwards to eat...I...

My new guy Karma ate from my hand today for the first time! Two worms. Tried a third and he started to get puffy so I put him back in his enclosure but it's a start!!!:D

So stinkin' cute! I love how they curl their tails. :cool: Congrats!

I'm right there with most of you about not touching the roaches. I see all these videos of people just reaching their hands into bins or tanks full of them and I have to turn it off. I use tongs with my breeding colony and with Chams, geckos, and a Beardie they are much easier and cheaper than...

He's amazing! And he just lets you put the hat on? Awesome vid. :cool:

So very sorry for your loss. Like you said, you got her out of a bad situation and gave her a much better life and if you had a custom cage, it sounds like she was spoiled. You took the time to hand feed her and that shows compassion. Sound like you gave her the best life a captive bred could...

So last night late in the evening, the breeder of Hicks called me at home. They did concede that if there were a deficiency that caused the hard shed, I couldn’t have caused it in that time frame. However, they don’t feel there was a deficiency so we continued to talk while they tried to...

For me I bought a heavy duty tote for about ten bucks. Cut out a rectangular hole on each side. Applied some cheap screen like you use in windows and then a cover. This helped to prevent moisture build up in mine. Several egg crates for them to hide in and lay eggs on. For food, I use chicken...

There were two heat packs, and he was quite black and white when I first opened his deli cup. The picture of him light colored is about five minutes after I got him calmed down. He came out biting lol. And yes flash was used because without it was blurry. Bad lighting in that room. This is him...

I'm too stubborn to give up. I wouldn't have admitted him in the animal hospital if I wasn't prepared to give it my all. My mom and I worked toward this a long time and she wouldn't want me to give up God rest her soul. I will gladly take the advice of seeking a larger male and I thank you truly...

I misted him 4 times a day for 2-3 mins...and when he started to shed, I increased that to 6. After a full day of trying to let him do it on his own..he wasn't moving, wouldn't open his eyes,...just seemed miserable so I tried to assist and got about 90% off. He took a good long drink while I...

This is a picture of him on the day he arrived. Like I said, I'm not here to bash on the breeder. They've been very nice to me as a new Cham owner. I've had reptiles for about 16 years but I know Chams are much different than any I've previously owned so I just wanted other owner's opinions to...

To be fair, that picture is after the shed. I don't know how to link the other picture I posted ...heck I'm not even sure how you did it lol. When I began having problems I emailed the breeder and they sent me a list of questions to answer to help find out what the problem was and encouraged me...

He was until the shed started. After, no. I got him to drink twice and then took him the vet and shots and force feeding ensued with no luck. His hatch date stated Dec 7-12 I don't know how to re-post the picture of him the day I got him.

Say you have a new 2gram Panther Male. You feed him daily and dust with calcium daily except his day of arrival in which case you use Calcium with D3. You also feed your crickets carrots, and Fulkers cricket food to gut load. You didn't the first feeding but did so each day following. About one...

So I've had lizards since I was 12 and love them to death. It's been my dream since day one to own a Chameleon but knew I didn't know enough about them nor had the money as a kid. Life happened since then, marriage, kids, and many things between but one constant is reptiles. I started with...

Thank you all for your kind words. I know most of you understand. What makes this even harder is he was the last thing my mother got for me. She passed away a week before his arrival. His name was for her. She was excited to see him, but I guess they'll have to hang out in Heaven together. To...

FINAL UPDATE: Thank you all for your advice and support but unfortunately the hospital just called and shortly after his shot and feeding he passed away. :( The vet's final opinion is that he was shipped too small and thin to start with and with the combination of shipping, new...
