So if you saw my previous threads on general health , I found out my baby cosmo was sick , she was a wild one and was caught and sold to me. I didn’t know this untill a few weeks in and she got very sick and inactive.

It happened over night , I woke up and he was inactive and he turned a pale yellow color from his usual green. Even when he’s lying he doesn’t want to move and he lays his head down like he’s unable to pick it up.
the one on the left is him today and the other is him yesterday
I just got a 5 month old veiled cham. I’ve always wanted one and read way too much about them. Saw one a few days ago at a local pet store and he honestly looked abused so I got him. Dependent on the knowledge in my head .
