Hi!
Could use some help :)
Thinking this is a baby girl? 6ish weeks old?
Any help with sex and locale at this age?
He/she is very tiny, 2.5-3in max to tip of tail. That dowel she is on not much thicker than an iphone cable. Hope this photo angle is enough to tell.
Thanks in advance!
Been a while, wanted to provide an update:
Randy was prescribed panacur by our vet, a 3-day course. Fecals were tested, he's all good to go. The worms Lenny had were classified by the vet as lungworms.
Randy had his Surgery monday to repair his broken jaw ( had to wait for the panacur cycle...
To lighten the mood after that last post, here is some chameleon eye bleach :)
Randy, the chameleon I'm concerned about, is the panther in that video. You can also get a visual of the setup.
I will heed your advice and wait.
Thank you @jajeanpierre for taking the time to respond.
The panacur I can acquire is indeed sold as a horse paste, Panacur 100 ( 100mg/g and it comes in a 25g tube ). I may have been ill advised from the internet and other posts that 0.1ml of this per 100g...
Thank you for the references and shoutouts, @Andee !
I wish there were a way I could check my dude, as the wait for the vet appointment is going to be riddled with anxiety. I'm about to give him his SulfaTrim, will try to get him to gape and take a look to see if there is anything abnormal...
I should receive proper vet attention in hopefully 72 hours, I have left a voicemail already, they know us well and I'm certain we will get first available appointment.
Hopefully, I'm being over precautious. My nightmare would be he does have roundworms, and by the time fecals come back its...

Hello All,
Thank you in advance for taking the time to read and assist. Heads up - this is a sad story, and I'm hoping it doesnt get any sadder.
Looking for some medical advice before I can get to my exotic vet Monday. I have tried calling various vets, and even the ASPCA's 24/hr Animal Poison...
Its been roughly 48hrs and I don't have a photo because he is sleeping on a hard to reach branch, but on inspection, i noticed the following:
The bump is roughly the same size, maybe 10% smaller. Definitely not bigger. It is in the same spot. Skin undisturbed.
More concerning is his recurring...
Thanks for all of your replies!
I have had him for 20months, believe him to be wc and 2yrs old. He came from a local, independent shop that has since closed ( owners more interested in breeding boas and pythons selling online than running full on pet store ). They said he was cb, but i have my...
Hey Dannyboy,
Definitely seek treatment from a vet and keep your hopes up.

Hi! Seeking advice for hopefully a minor issue.
Mr. Lahey ( Trioceros jacksonii ) has developed a small, hard bump on the upper left side of his body. Image attached. To the light touch it is quite firm, akin to a pimple ready to pop but deep under the skin.
Eating very well. Diet and vitamins...
