I thought he might be a sambava, too. However, his blue always threw me for a loop. I'll try to get a picture of him sleeping. I just tried going in there and taking a picture but as soon as I flipped the light on he woke up, and by the time the camera focused he changed to green.
Hey everyone! As my Cham gets older and older I wonder more and more what locale he's from. I got him from a man who only knows he's wild caught, but doesn't even know from what area of Madagascar. We both though he may be an Ambilobe, but he doesn't have the 'Y' mark on the side that all...
You could always find the nearest zoo and/or rehabilitation center. You can also volunteer at the local humane society. You don't have to necessarily have experience with a certain type of animal as long as you are working with animals and getting your name and face out in the world. Letting...
You are welcome to get the Fluker's. They're a good product. Repashy also makes a product that you add water to yourself and put it in the microwave. It smells like oatmeal and has the consistency of cat food. They make it from different vegetables. I like it because I can add Calcium + D3 and...
You can post pictures by clicking the paperclip icon when you go to reply. Look for it in the area where it says 'Fonts' and 'Sizes'. If you can't find the paperclip you can create a photobucket account and it will have a html link you can paste in your reply.
Hi! My name's James and I'm an amateur Herper. I have a corn snake, a yellow plated lizard, an american alligator lizard, a 100% hypo-melanistic male bearded dragon, a super red X red italian leatherback female bearded dragon, and a 50% het hypo-translucent female bearded dragon, a wild caught...
Hello and Welcome!
He seems to only be a few months old and isn't showing much colors right now. You should expect he will start showing more green, then orange/red where it is dark along his spine. The rest is a guess without knowing what locale he is. Do you know if he is an Ambilobe...
Welcome!
I'm glad you're so excited about getting your first Chameleon. You seem to be very enthusiastic and that's a good thing. It means you are willing to go to the lengths it takes to care for these amazing animals. Screen cages are great for allowing ventilation, which is very important...
HAHA! I completely agree. The faces of my chams every time I walk into their room (it's MY room, but they over took it) is a face of disapproval and hate. But then again, the way my Veiled's brows are and the way his mouth droops at the end, makes him look grumpy all the time and like he hates life.
You can usually come to a good conclusion by looking up reviews on youtube. My personal feelings are you should only buy any animal from a reputable breeder who specializes in the animal you are wanting to get. They are usually more expensive but the animal you receive is usually of higher...
Hello Ramsby! I am sorry that you loss your Cham.
Could you do us a favor and please take pictures of the cage and setup you have been keeping your Chameleons in. Also, please state the location of the cage currently. Since you say you are thinking of making a Chameleon Room.
You say it...
I just use the food/water spirulina gut load for my feeder crickets. It's just easier for me since I order crickets by the 1000's, but if you want to take the time to properly gut load them then, go ahead and chop up some carrots (diced) and you might soak them in water over night. You can then...
Congrats! It is always rewarding to help an animal in need. Some pet stores, especially commercialized ones, have nothing but sickly and close to dead animals. I recently bought a leopard gecko from a pet store that will remain nameless that was obviously wild caught and extremely sick (it was...
I don't think him wanting out all the time is a problem with the enclosure, as much as it is him wanting to get to know you more. Some chameleons seem to be naturally curious, as others want to be left alone all the time. I happen to have a wild caught panther of unknown locale. I've had him for...
