Thanks for all your positive replies, he is very cute indeed. I'm loving him and he's doing very well. The other day he shed so fast that I didn't even see him do it. He seems to be doing very well and I hope that he continues to do so.:)
Hi all, well I finally got my new Nosy Be from Kammerflage Creations AKA ChameleonsOnly and I must say that I'm extremely happy. Even at 4.5 months he's showing vibrant blue shades and he's becoming quite acclimated to his new surroundings. Things haven't been going so great for ChameleonsOnly...
Thanks for the information, MWheelock. My female beardie is fully grown and my male is nearly fully grown. Both enjoy the veggies I give them, although both still relish crickets aplenty. When they were young I kept them on reptile carpet so the ingestion of substrate was moot. Now they're much...
Thank you for that valuable post, Kenya. I've been housing my beardies on Vita-sand for over a year now. My guys have ready access to calcium as I regularly supplement their food with calcium and vitamin supplement dust. On top of that the crickets I feed them are partially gut loaded with...
Thank you for your perspective, Kenya. I've been using vita sand for well over a year and my beardies have never shown any signs of impaction. It's a very small grain. Heck it's virtually dust, but I am looking into alternatives. If washed, play sand is good then that's a viable option. Thank...
Hi guys thanks for getting back to me. I've found that Mjollnir, my female will dig for weeks before finally laying her eggs and burying them in her cage. But I will certainly give your suggestion a try, Vegas Chad. Thank you very much! I know that regular sand from a hardware store has silica...
Hi all I have a question to pose. First I just want to say that I'm using a calcium sand substrate and it works great, except for a few problems I have. I'm using Zoo Med Vita-sand, FYI.
Here's a link showing what I use:

1: It gets all over my beardies and is hard to...
Thanks for the posts, guys. I'm going to a vet in Ocala that is reputed to be very good. Unfortunately Orlando is about a 3 hour drive from here, so I sought something closer. But again, thanks for your posts. And information is informative. What's the vet in Orlando called? Does anyone have a...
You're right. It is an infection of his temporal lobe. I read online that Jackson's are prone to it. I've called the vet nearby and I'm waiting for a callback so I can setup an appointment. Does anyone know what vets usually charge for working with reptiles?
Thanks kinyonga, I saw that online. I'll try to get a picture tomorrow once my guy is awake. I don't know what it is. I looked online at every resource I could find. If it's not oversupplementation, I don't know what it could be. It's the space behind his left eye so I don't know. I'd rather not...
Hi all I was just looking at my little Jackson's and I noticed a swollen area right behind his left eye. While it doesn't appear to hinder or bother him in any way I'm still concerned what it could be. Does anyone have any ideas? His cage is clean and gets regular supplements and has never had a...
Thanks for all the great feedback, guys. I'm happy to see that it wasn't just me that wasn't getting replies. Obviously, emailing them isn't the way to go about it, I'll phone them tomorrow instead then. I'm also glad that people were able to confirm their reputation. Thanks again all!
Hi all I'm looking to get a Nosy Be Panther tomorrow and I'm looking for reputable breeders. I know about FLChams, Screameleons and so on, but I was looking at chameleonsonly to get one. Mostly because I like the Nosy Bes they offer, but I'm wondering how reputable they are. I've sent them a...
Hi all how are things? I'm happy to say that I can finally get a Nosy Be for my collection here at home. I've been looking around the net and ChameleonsOnly has some for sale. I'll be getting a male juvenile in a couple of weeks. I'll post a few pics once I get him. I'm excited! :)
Hi all I'm looking for a reputable breeder that might have Nosy Be's as an option. I looked at FLChams, but none was available. Can anyone here recommend a breeder of good pedigree that might have a male? Just a thought, but I've been looking for a Panther specimen that might have such an...
Believe it or not reptiles are highly adaptable to a different schedule than the normal daily routine. I'm a complete night owl, and all of my reptiles are happy on my own schedule. At 2 in the afternoon, my veiled is still asleep until I turn his lights on, and the same as my Jacksonii. My...
