Rudis maybe????

He doesn't need to be banned, we all just need to stop feeding into it and commenting on his threads. He's just seeking attention and we're giving him exactly what he wants. If we stop responding to his questions and tantrums, yes hell keep posting for a while but eventually hell just be talking to himself. Stop giving him what he wants and DO NOT REPLY!
 
I've been following this thread from the beginning and have kept my mouth shut. But it's at the point where this is beyond redicilous!
This person is harassing good people on here who have really been trying to help him and he is verbally abusive. He should be BANNED and that's it. There are pleanty of other sites that have information about chameleons.
Let him go hassle them.
Enough said.
 
Even if you are 13, or whatever, I assume you would like to be seen as mature.

To do this (and some practical real-life advice).. Be willing to accept advice/constructive criticism. If you don't like it, just drop it and move on.. Don't keep re-hashing. Be your own person. If you don't genuinely want advice then you shouldn't be asking questions on a forum. If you do want advice, be prepared for opinions other than your own.

Best of luck.
 
I have two Leo geckos.... Leo, the fat one who never eats in the fall, and Bob, who swallows every mealworm I give him and still does not get bigger. Bob has a crusty feces of some kind forming, and I have pointed this out to my parents but they say it's nothing.

Are your parents herp vets? Haven't heard that they are, so accepting their opinion that nothing is wrong with your leo seems like a problem. If you are truly concerned enough to get to the bottom of these health issues, you will need to have an experienced herp vet examine Bob. Bob may have intestinal parasites that are preventing him from growing. It may also have something to do with these "crusty feces" you mentioned. If your parents won't pay for a vet visit or won't take you to the appointment that's a really serious concern to face before getting an even more delicate animal. The reality is, the chance that you will need vet care for a new 1 month old cham (even I am hesitant to buy one that young especially of a species I haven't kept before!) regardless of species is pretty high. It would be high for many keepers of any age, not just you.

Leo sleeps a lot. He's really lazy. On top of this, Leo seems to be unresponsive to many things, or maybe he just doesn't care. Let's see what else..... Oh yeah. Leo's right eye is always half shut, the other one is fine though. I always tell my parents something seems wrong, but as I always say that they believe I am just overly sensitive towards them.

Again, if your parents are not herp vets who can actually diagnose and treat gecko health problems I think you need a vet's opinion. Sounds like Leo has some issues too.


I'll have to stress to them that this cannot happen with the chameleon.

If they dismiss the probable health problems your leos may have or are not willing to get them to a vet when something isn't right, this doesn't bode well for a cham. Are the leos less entitled to decent vet care than a cham? Think about that. All your animals deserve the same level of care regardless how rare or expensive they happen to be.

Face the facts...the first sign of a problem and that cham will die because your parents feel its not necessary. Please dont buy one just for it to die. After reading that I highly doubt any breeders on here would even sell you one. They take pride in their chams and want the best for them, they wont just sell them to a person who will shoo away problems that require vet intervention.
 
I'm 100% with Carlton. Solve your current problem you have with these "easy cared" considered reptiles. If you can't get a hold of that I wouldn't recommend any type of new animal for you. Harsh to hear maybe but right now I'm more concerned about your ill pets than your opinion
 
K well I don't know what you posted I looked at the users and realized it was rubbish so I skipped it. However, my Hygrometer is up in the low 70s....is that from my Pothos?! It was at 50 earlier!!! THAT'S AWESOME. PS my temps have gone up 5 degrees as well, 70 in there without touching anything. PS my Pothos has literally grown 5+ full leaves and is starting a new branch....I've had it for two or three weeks. This plant is awesome.

:D
 
Perhaps you should use your saved up Christmas/birthday money to properly care for the health issues that your geckos VERY CLEARLY have instead of purchasing a new animal.

Not taking care of their issues is animal abuse. Plain and simple. So good job.
 
Humidity levels?

All of you, or atleast most of you, know my game plan. If not, refer to my previous thread if you wish to do so. However, I am interested in what humidity level my cage should be in. It stays at a constant 66-68%. Heat is high 60s at night high 70s during the day (with the lights on)
