I'm so sorry Jann!! He was a very handsome boy! You did all you could and at least you know he had a great little life even if it ended way too soon. Hopefully Dr Doug can give you some answers. RIP Dewey
I was too! Lol. But as soon as I got it untied and started to open the hole, he popped his head right out. He checked me out for a second and then tried to make a break for it so I put my hand in the direction he was running and he ran right up my arm! I think he was over being in that bag and...
You're right, I could've taken more time to test this enclosure but it was a last minute decision to upgrade my previous build to something much larger. Previous cage was 2×2×4 and I had it running with lights, heat, mist, etc for about 3 weeks but after my younger cham did not survive shipping...
Just wanted to introduce my new guy from @bobcochran, and courtesy of @laurie and @jannb for helping me find a great breeder to assist me in getting my first cham! He is absolutely perfect and is a stunner for sure! So much thanks to be given to those who helped through this adventure! This...
Thank you! I have one that runs in the same room, but not directly on the cage. He arrived today happy and healthy and full of energy! I could not be more pleased with him! Thank you so much for connecting me with Laurie and Bob, they are great and I couldn't have asked for a more pleasant...
I thoroughly researched, asked questions for several weeks while trying to get my enclosure setup, and have a mentor that I am working with through the mentor program on the chameleon central page. I thought my enclosure was done other than drainage, which I am setting up right now. I have...
Oh great, good to know about the humidity because it wants to be in the low to mid 50s. Basking is 87-88 where the vines cross and I tried to set it up where he could move higher or lower under it to adjust temps. As for drainage, I'm still brainstorming on that one because the enclosure has...
Hey guys! Ya'll may remember my previous posts of trying to get my first chameleon and not having great luck: the first developed an URI the day before I was supposed to pick up due to poor husbandry and then the 2-3 month old I ordered did not survive shipping. Well third time is a charm...
You think he would still be able to escape if I lined it on the inside with screen? That was my plan for it if I got it. I just know I'm going to want an outdoor as well as an indoor cage and was thinking it may be easier to modify this one than building another.
So I'm getting my first cham soon and I built a 2×2×4 cage with pvc and screen for the new guy. Today I found a 4ft tall, 4ft long, 2ft wide iguana cage for sale early cheap near me and I was wondering if it could be used as a cage as well. It has 3/4inch spacing, would it work as an indoor...
I've seen some pictures of some pretty crazy colored veileds with bright teals, oranges, etc. and I was wondering where people found them. Most all that I have found are the traditional green/brown/yellowish gold.
That is what I believe happened as well, the cool pack was room temperature when he arrived and he was in a position reaching upward with his mouth open.
Thank you :) Yep, just a panther. Doesn't have to have crazy awesome coloring or be a specific age/sex as long as its healthy. I've just already had such bad luck that I'm starting to get discouraged. The first cham I had picked out was from a local "breeder" and developed an upper...
Oh no you're fine, I should've known better! I was only taking my weather into consideration and didnt even think about the weather along the way that may affect him and I feel so bad for my ignorance!
I would love to find someone in reasonable driving distance but have been unable to do so. I am in middle Georgia near Macon, Ga. I am looking specifically for a panther, age, sex and locale are open though.
