Great idea Little Leaf! My daughter is 14 and now learning that wants come with a price. I believe I'll now start incorporating Pascals food costs into her allowance earnings. Thanks for the idea!
I agree...simply spoiled. Pascal was doing this thing for a while where he'd only eat from our hands and not out of his cup. He'll get over it with some tough love. Such Diva's they can be!
When Pacsallywagz was around the same age, he reacted very similarly. Very ansie & restless, decreased appetite; moving him to his big boy set up changed all of that. He's probably crying out for more space please!
My lil man is 110 grams and is now and is approaching a year old (end of July he'll be a year). He was a bit malnourished when I received him and had MBD issues (long resolved now) so I don't expect him to become a behemoth lime some of the Chams on here. He's just perfect the way he is. What a...
Beautiful, beautiful boys here. I want to share! Unfortunately Mr. Skallywagz (aka Pascal) is gearing up for a shed and looks a bit milky right now. As soon as he does I'll be posting :p
My guy is a month older than yours and he too has slowed on the frequency of his BM's. If it gets to the point of stressing you out, a nice warm...not hot shower always seems to get my guy to do his business. Place him on a Cham safe plant and allow the warm water to bounce of the shower wall...
Sending best of wishes to both of you during the last part of his journey before he transcends. He is absolutely gorgeous & it is quite apparent that you have given him the best life a captive Cham could have. Sending Hugz your way from the land of the giant trees. (((Hugzzz))
If he's bulging his throat out & doing the "s" wiggle he could also be telling you to back off. Mine does this when he gets pissy or as SaintJimmy said to loosen old skin that accompanies shedding. He also will make himself look as large as he can when he does this as well. Hope it's something...
Finally had a moment to check this thread. Its so nice to come home from a long day in the field to read about how a person as diligent and selfless as yourself has undertaken this responsibility. It really makes my day to read that he is recovering & responding well. Thank you soooo much! My...
Regarding the hemipenes- it depends on how long the prolapse has occurred for. I have not had this issue but other members on this forum have. Is the tissue dried out or necrotic? What did she mean by "awhile"? Hours? Days? How to approach the prolapse is dependent on how much time has passed...
My Cham loves his "jungle gym" we've temporarily set up for him until I have the time to turn my spare room into a free range/home space for him. He was being quite milly so I put him on his jungle gym and left to continue doing my make up. I'm usually on it with him but I got side tracked &...
They don't here in Northern Cali- seems like PG&E likes all the money they receive with the outrageous number of grows here in Mendocino County & Humboldt as well; however if one is suspected of running a grow the police can supena (may be spelled wrong) someones electric bill if needed...just...
Most chameleons are quite shy by nature (remember they are arboreal and are not used to all the action that comes with living on the ground.) Some become more tolerant of their caregivers and some remain a bit on the shy side (and some can be just plain aggressive!) If you give him space and...
My condolences :( . When I lost my jacksons Rhinette I was heart broken. She was smaller than my thumb when we got her. One of the down sides of being human, we often out live our cherished animal friends.
Hello! Sorry I didn't respond sooner, I've been quite ill. At the top of the page in the green bar area you will see the bar "Resources". Click on that and there are many links that can assist you. If you click on "care sheets" you'll be given a brief description of the different subspecies and...
