Parasites

[TOMMYBOY72]

Can a Panther develop parasites over a period of time? Perhaps from feeders?

 

[carol5208]

yes they can. Do you suspect yours has parasites?

 

[BeBoSON]

Yes, they can. Either from feeders, or poor hygiene. The only way to make sure your cham is clean is to get a fecal test done.

Well he started with a sectional shed, head legs, spine. He was not eating very well during this. Than I took him outside for a couple hrs of sun and also changed his lamp and he went into a very heavy full body shed. The full body shed has taken about a week and its now almost complete. I am worried about his diet,he is not eating very much. No super worms and just a few crickets. He usually craps everyday until this shedding started, now it every 2 or 3 days. He is drinking plenty of water but he wont even look at a super worm. I don't have a scale but he is getting light. I use only distilled water and keep his cage extremely clean. Are they visible or only microscopic or both?
