Hey everyone,
the vet said she died of severe kidney disease, and the doctor suspects it was cancerous. So sad that a little animal can die of something like that :(
Yeah my boyfriend pretty much bought her spur of the moment. NO research, he knew she would be a lot more work than most reptiles, but I doubt he knew the complexities of the female cham...

Thanks! That's an awesome thread. She has been almost 5 months in this place.
My bf had the UVB lamp over her for most of her life. We are concerned this might be why she's so sick now or if its just because she's old. She also gets natural sunlight, the window is right by her and often...
Oh yes I know. Don't worry! :) The lamp is usually higher, elevated right at the top but we lowered it to give her warmth because she's in the dirt (see at the bottom?)
To give her water we shower her and drip water droplets from a bottle over her head/mouth and she drinks that way. She's...
