2yo male ambilobe with a shed hat :)

Hey guys, I haven't posted in a while, but I'm hoping someone can help me out. I have had my male panther chameleon for about 2 years now. Just yesterday he started closing his left eye on and off. He is going through a shed right now but that is not normal for him. Today his eye is...

Hi All, So this isn't an urgent concern exactly, my Jackson's appears to be doing quite well. Rather, I am just looking for some general input on two minor issues: 1) The horn above his right eye is slanted downwards a tad, and is growing slightly unevenly. I have read posts here and...

Hey guys, I am pretty new to the chameleon world and I was wondering what the coloration of female veiled compared to male is.A lot of websites that give information on veileds just say females have less color than males.I wan't to know specifics because I have one and so when newbies like me...

Hello All, I decided to put this thread in general discussion because I don't think it is a health problem. Feel free to let me know if it is, though! We just thought it was interesting and wondered if anyone had any insight into why it happened. During Mowgli's last shed he pulled off a big...

Why is Rufus' head turning so grey? Your Chameleon - got Rufus (male veiled from LLLReptile) in late June 2012. So he's almost 10 months old. Handling - Around once a week, he is aggressive, and he runs away from me Feeding - about 6 large crickets every other day, and 15 mealworms...

Hey guys Not sure if its something to be concerned about but for 2 or more weeks (after he did a 3/4 shed) he has had what looks like unshed skin on his head, on one side of his body, tail and the odd tiny tiny hang off bits on his legs, for the past couple of days I have been upping the...

I have my veiled Cham Malibu for almost two months, and I've never seen him shed. He is about 2-3 months old, do they not shed this young? Or could he be shedding and I'm just not seeing it? Should I be worried?

Hello everyone, I hope everyone is doing well and that everyone's chameleons are doing great! :) I just wanted to post an update on Razu, this weekend he shed for the second time since I've had him at home with me. He was a grumpy little guy for most of the weekend but now that he's all done he...

Hey all, So lately my almost 2 year old veiled male has constantly had some peeled skin (specifically around his 'yellow stripes') and it will not go away. I understand that shedding is a determinant of health quality (in relation to diet, lighting, hydration, etc.), but I believe that he has...

Pygmies shed their entire skin within an hour or two! They split down the middle and then stretch their little heads and tails all around to loosen the split and eventually end up pulling it off! Sometimes they will eat the entire shed so you don't even know it happened. I got lucky and caught...

My panther chameleon has had bits of shed stuck all along his spine for a little bit over a month now that wont come off! I tried the wet q-tip thing many times but nothing :( I was wondering if anyone new of any good shed aid that would help or if anyone else had any ideas on what i could do...

here is my 9 month old veiled. Ive moved him into a larger cage which he seems to like a lot, attached is a picture of him that i took today, i just wanted to make sure he looks normal to everyone, i give him all his suppliements and try to keep him as healthy as i can. just curious if his skin...

Hello All, So I decided to take a random day off work yesterday. It turned out to be a great day to take off because my wife changed her flight back from Edmonton to be in the morning, so I could pick her up and hang out for the day. The other reason it turned out to be a good day to pick...

Ive kept Chameleons for just about a year now and was simply wondering...when chameleons shed...does that mean better skin/color comes out? My male red rudis is currently shedding and has nice colors coming out on the parts that have completed shed. like his head/arms partial body. So what does...

I wanted to get some input from you fellow Melleri keepers. This is Henry, I got him from Megan, shes a member of the forum. He LOVES his mulberry tree, but the branches are small. I zip tied some large Jungle Vines to the branches I noticed him resting on the most. Should I be worried by...
