By definition they are omnivores! despite the possible reasons for consuming the plant matter by consuming both plant and animal matter they're omnivores by definition.

oh and when you do get another be sure to thoroughly clean that enclosure and replace everything inside or deep clean so your new Cham doesn't catch anything. I know you're disappointed and feeling down but in my opinion you did all you could and more with your set up and research 👍

Sorry for your loss and thank you for keeping us updated. with that heavy of a parasite load he may have been wild caught. Hopefully you get your money back, there are several breeders on this forum that you can get a healthy captive bred from. Best of luck and thanks again

I'll look into that 👍 67° interesting

I only fog at night for a 2 hours after sunset and 2 hrs before sunrise, the mister kicking on in the middle of the night may startle or wake him. I set misters to go off in the morning for 60 seconds 15 minutes after sunrise to give a chance to drink, I'll manually override my timers once a...

I'd also be happy to give one or more a new home, I have several empty enclosures and have bred Jackson's in he past.

Glad you took him in, please keep us updated once you know what type of parasite I would like to make note of the symptoms. hope all goes well 👍

Sounds like you've done your research 👍 Is he wild caught, are veiled chameleons prevalent in the wild in the part of florida you live in? seems like alot of water going into the enclosure but I mist heavy on my outdoor screen cages also, my indoor(winter) glass enclosures get alot less. If...

Have you only offered worms? offer Dubia roaches and crickets, they may seem to be enjoying your company but it stresses them out i would recommend some alone time in her cage with a variety of a few insects just dont overwhelm your cham with too many bugs most people use a feeder cup to avoid...

looks alot like a common chameleon.

looks more like a common chameleon

is he sleeping during the day in one of those pics? if your only concern is him pacing his enclosure you can and probably should get him a larger one as he has most likely out grown his current cage, besides that it's mating habits which could play a role in his relentless search now that hes...

can we use plastic chameleons on real shrubbery? 😆 jk. I'll do my best 🤳🦎 thanks for the heads up 😍👍

Hi Onnie, your husbandry is good She's a big beautiful girl the only thing I can think of is her schedule, how long do you run her lights? are they on timers? and when they shut off is the room completely dark? no lights left on in the room

Good point, my female loves the cup as most females will eat nomatter the circumstances she sees it as soon as I walk into the area and puts her bib on, I've had a few young males that won't go near a plastic cup and many others that have no problem eating from one. If the op can't get him to...

sometimes good to err on the side of caution 👍, I run bioactive enclosures and have had crickets successfully breed in the substrate. little pin heads emerge and crawl around competing with the isopods, springtails and other fauna in the leaf litter. I personally have never had the issue of...

I recommend only 10 at a time so they don't swarm the cham and stress it. depending on the size of the enclosure 10 shouldn't pose a problem. I agree I would also offer a feed cup with some dubias or a horn worm. 👍

Chamela Anderson is a 14 month old female Veiled she loves hiding in her apple trees and basking in the warm California sun

i recommend misting in the morning and before bed let the enclosure dry out during the day, toss 10 crickets in the enclosure and give him privacy for a day or 2. I sneak up on mine to check on them and observe, if they see me I run away lol. once they've established the territory you can...

hi, can you post pics of your cham and enclosure?
