    Advice for Jackson's Chameleon

    This is so helpful! When it comes to RI, I know that it takes a while for things to build and I wouldn't see the effects until it's too late. I will definitely keep an eye out for the light from windows because the second I turn on the light he's up and at 'em and it sometimes makes me worry...

    Advice for Jackson's Chameleon

    I'm really glad you mentioned that because a few people recommend misting the leaves and such, to provide drinking opportunities. I have a dripper that drips water off multiple plant leaves and I've seen him drink from it before. But, I tried the misting: the recommended time was in the morning...

    Advice for Jackson's Chameleon

    I know I love his horns! They've definitely grown in and got bigger since he shed! He's a really cool breed of chameleon. The Bill Stand video that I linked also talks about his natural habitat and the sub-species of Jackson's, which I found fascinating!

    Advice for Jackson's Chameleon

    Hi everyone! I first want to express my gratitude for this group of chameleon owners. I got my first chameleon/Jackson's Chameleon, Loki, in April and he had a prolapse almost immediately after bringing him home. I came here and I got a lot of helpful advice and very kind comments. Loki was put...

    Jackson's Chameleon Prolapse

    UPDATE: My Jackson's Chameleon is looking so much better! He's well hydrated, he's very active, and he's eating. From what you guys and the Vet told me I feel tremendously lucky and grateful that it wasn't worse, and I don't want to get my hopes up but I'm working hard to make sure he gets...

    Keeping crickets alive

    Hi! I'm having the same problem as @BryanP, I appreciate these suggestions too! Do you have a specific brand of water crystals that you use?

    Jackson's Chameleon Prolapse

    The article you wrote was very helpful! It's good to know, I haven't been going crazy on the way I dust the feeders (not like a donut as you said), but I will go easy on it from here on out.

    Jackson's Chameleon Prolapse

    This is him as of 5 minutes ago... his skin looks a little dehydrated (humidity is at 80%) (I turned up the fogger and dripping system) but his color looks good and as I said, he's active! Would anyone recommend cutting up the silkworms, if it's in fact a non-complete digestion of the worms? The...

    Jackson's Chameleon Prolapse

    Yes, I've only been feeding him silkworms and gut-loaded/calcium-dusted baby crickets. We switch off and on of Ca with D3. But, you're right it doesn't look fully digested. Otherwise, I will continue using pasteurized honey but I think I'll break up the soaks to every few days so the stress...

    Jackson's Chameleon Prolapse

    I brought the prolapse to the vet and she pulled it apart, that's why it's in pieces now. Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of what it looked like on him because frankly, it came off before I even thought of it. The color was a red/purple color and there was no blood. She did examine his...

    Jackson's Chameleon Prolapse

    Hi, My baby male Jackson's chameleon (3-4months) had a prolapse at 9 am this morning. I can't describe the panic that we had but after reading many suggestions, we dipped him in honey water and later some warm sugar water hoping that he would suck it back up. He didn't, the prolapse completely...

    Baby Jackson's Redish Skin

    Hello, I recently started caring for a male baby Jackson's Chameleon (3-4 months old). We have the whole setup; a fogger, basking area, heating bulb, live plants, a dripper system, etc. Our chameleon has adjusted really well to his new environment and I haven't noticed any weird behavior. He's...
