YAK’s Info:
• Your Chameleon – Jackson, male, 14 months (?), 7 months under my loving care.
• Handling – He loves being handle, the moment he sees me he runs to me.
• Feeding – Mainly a cricket diet, I feed him adult crickets, an occasional superworm, and an occasional dubia roach. (they are readily available to him but he doesn’t seem to care much for them) I gut load with “Repahy” Superload.
• Supplements – I use calcium every other day and multivitamins once a week.
• Watering - slow drip (home made) and mist twice a day, also a slow cool mist.
• Fecal Description – brownish matter covered with slime and a whitish lead. Not yet tested.
• History – I got this at a pet store that specializes in reptiles, he was a bit shy at first and on the skinny side. His middle horn has a blemish, it is not straight and is short. I am assuming the was either dropped when he was a baby or never developed. Other than that he appears to be healthy.
