    On my second male vieled he's about 10 months now and a joy to watch growing. Slowly building a bond with him. Chameleons are so narky, even when he's climbing on me at his demand. Lost one last year to bone cancer.He was a big bruiser of a lad who got to six. Very lucky here as I have the...

    Agree with you there.Subtle differences between the UK & US in husbandry. We tend to use timber enclosed VIVS with sliding glass fronted doors.So T8 fittings inside mounted are totally adequate for purpose. My chameleon though is in a flexi open mesh viv and the tubes are mounted on top of the...

    Hi the best size (fluorescent type)tube is as long as you can fit in your viv.You can provide hiding areas if your lizard needs to seek shade. Obviously you will need the correct sarter pack to match the wattage of the tube. Bare in mind that as your beardies grows it will need a bigger viv...

    Try to keep her hydrated( worm bath). She may have had a bite from the cric which has made her wary.Changing feeders is another way to stimulate her.If she's a little under wieght wax worms will work with other feeders will help her fatten up quickly. (That's why we call it lizard candy) Also...

    Sorry for delay.Reflector, yes is usually fitted but broke.Hadn't refitted when I took pic.Also the tube fitting is mounted on a flat reflective board the usually a standard reflector.

    Might just be a case of her slowing down beardies do empty themselves & eat less when they brumate.If her wieght is good & she's been pooing ok til this incident she May be trying to brumate. They slow right down sleep more just generally luthargic.Mine vary from year to year sometimes full on...

    MBD? Your advice is appreciate,

Obviously a herp vets visit is an important first step.Check for obvious parasite ,injuries mbd etc. Yourself concentrate...

    [Q UOTE="Tina&Russ, post: 114867, member: 6457"]I posted earlier this week in regards to her as well. She was a rescue, now I'm pretty concerned, so I wanted to give an update here and possibly get some advice. Hello, we have a new female dragon, we got her on Dec. 31st.1 years old. She was in...

    I know what you mean.When people come round to visit they usually end up sitting with one of beardies on their lap for a good while.My great aunt is in her 90s & she loves sitting with the beardies having a photo taken to show her friends. From experience of Pascal (chameleon ) he was the same...

    For those of you who let their beardies rome

    Sounds familiar it does take chameleons a lot longer to form a bond with. From memory mine took 1-18 months before he began to show trust.Even now he's a moody devil.Very Important not to rush them.Mine is in a mesh flexi Viv. Usually when he's ready to interact he comes to front of the Viv. As...
