I feel so bad for the little guy and i don't even have a clue as to what caused it

He said it was a fungal infection.... And he told me to use Lotrimin... He didn't really sound like he had a clue. I think it was the first time he saw a chameleon. He even took pictures for his website. He cared more about that than my sick cham :(

I brought mine to the third one ..... :( This just sucks.

Leominster, ma

He hasn't eaten in almost a week now... I've tried mealworms, waxworms, hornworms, and crickets but he just backs away. He still drinks but i saw him trying to poop today, and nothing really came out besides a little water :( There really aren't any experienced chameleon vets near me..... I...

Ok thanks guys. How fast does it usually start clearing up?

No i'm not really close to Tufts.... I will try Vetericyn, can i buy it online?

The vet i brought him to really didn't have much reptile experience, which kind of worried me. But i can't find a herp vet around my area (Central massachusetts). So if anyone has been through this before, or seen this before, what can i do??

I forgot to mention that i've already been to the vet and confirmed it was a fungal infection. He prescribed me to use Lotrimin lotion. I had another thread a few weeks ago that with pics that i'll post in a second...

So i've been applying Lotrimin lotion twice a day for about three-four weeks now, and i haven't seen any improvement. I can also see that it might be spreading in other areas as well :/ He hasn't been eating normally too, refuses to eat crickets and hasn't eaten mealworms for two days now. He...

Do you think the "baby" silkworms are enough food for my 1 yr old Panther though? It's too bad they're out of medium sized ones. Just ordered some hornworms from great lakes, thanks!

I'm having trouble finding these guys to buy online.. If anyone knows of a reputable source, that would help me out a lot! Thanks

Update: Made a trip to the vet because he was starting to act a little funny, and got me even more worried. He looked at the infected cells under a microscope and determined it was a very odd looking fungus, one he'd never seen before (oh great). So it was a fungal infection. He just...

My little guy has had these black/blue spots on him in various places for a couple weeks. I've been hoping they would fade out but i'm worried now that they might be spreading. The spots started out much lighter but now they are much darker. Has anyone seen this before? He's been acting normal...
