an update on my cham.

[chameleon884]

after putting my cham in a screen cage for about a week, he finally discovered he can climb on the screen! when i saw him climbing i watched for a couple minutes, and then he couldnt get his nail out of the screen!! (no he didnt tear or rip the screen) i had to turn the cage sideways and help him out!

now for the update-
he has ate and drank, he ate about 8 crickets today. dusted with calcium.
he drank alot.
he has been showing alot of very very light yellow. other than that, he has nice blue and green colors.
his latest poops and had white urates and nice brown/ black-ish poops.
he has excellent aim with his tongue. spot-on!
i think he is pretty healthy as of right now.
what do you guys think?

name- dynamite
sex- male
species- veiled
age- 10 1/2 months

I line my cage with the plastic chicken fence so the nails want get caught in the screen. It gives them something to hold on to besides the screen to climb around. They can loose nails in the screen and it can get infected and the nail never grows back.
