    Leone is lethargic

    Alright. So I read what you guys wrote and today I got a new light that is a 75w incandescent uncolored bulb. My fixture keeps the lights suspended about 3 inches from the top of the cage, and my light was pretty weak, he hasn't shown many signs of overheating like gaping or bright/light colors...

    Leone is lethargic

    my chameleon has been acting lethargic and not eating much, sleeping in his cage during the day. it might be because my ambient house temp is 80-86 degrees, or maybe he's impacted from the superworms. he is sleeping during the day. im not sure if it's because the days are longer that the...

    Panicking, He threw up and is still gagging!

    vet says he looks very healthy and is very impressed with his health, but could not do a fecal because I didn't have a sample and he didn't pass one while he was staying there. but she still would definitely recommend a fecal

    Panicking, He threw up and is still gagging!

    the dripper was about 1.5-2 drops a second, but onto foliage and other features, that dry out between waterings. he was licking it of the stick, kinda off to the side. maybe it got into his nose holes? my chameleon's gotcha day was yesterday, and we got him at like 2 months. so a year and 2 months

    Panicking, He threw up and is still gagging!

    he has been eating this size of crickets for months... the dripper is pretty fast, but it drips on the stick and down some leaves so he doesn't have to rush to catch it, so I thought it was fine :/ I called my local exotics vet and they have an opening, for only 120 dollars, checkup, urgent, and...

    Panicking, He threw up and is still gagging!

    So I fed my Leon this morning with some dusted crickets, and I turned on a dripper of water, nothing big. then I see him with his nose to the ceiling. weird. then I hear a whole niagra of water hit the ground of the enclosure and it's dripping from his mouth. there was also some mucous in his...

    diarrhea but acting normal?

    He has been doing well. He had straight diarrhea once, then runny stool the next day, and ever since his poop has been just fine. I wasn't able to do a fecal float, I called the local herp shop but they didn't respond, ill have to reconnect with them. i was trying to buy products to get a fecal...

    diarrhea but acting normal?

    nothing really new, just a different type of supplements because the one I have wasn't offered at my local pet store, but this other one was shown to be helpful. so now I'm wondering if I should supplement at all with this new supplement. i will watch today and see what his bowel movements are...

    diarrhea but acting normal?

    he is eating crickets gut-loaded with sweet potato and green apple slices, and superworms, both occasionally dusted as I am trying to change dusting and I'm trying not to shock his system with a drastic change of vitamins or ingredients. I've never gutloaded my crickets with sweet potato before...

    The evils of mealworms

    when my chameleon was small, he couldn't quite eat crickets or super worms, but was getting too big to only eat flies, so I fed him mealworms for a couple of days until I could find some crickets, when I slowly transitioned into crickets. I'm convinced they helped him recognize food that's...

    diarrhea but acting normal?

    two days ago my chameleon had very runny stool, and then didn't go for a couple of days. then today he had a very runny stool with solid bits and runny urate. is this dangerous? he is acting normal and eating ok, (not great, he's not eating much from the cup or my hand, so I just leave him with...

    Eye infection

    yes, at PetSmart they have a relatively cheap linear fixture, and a long linear bulb that both total to about 30 or less, but if they seem to think it's your best shot then I would try it. I'm no expert, but my chameleon was throwing up and was struggling like yours and... she didn't last long...
