Okay good to know. He’s very good with going back into his cage and even if he doesn’t I put him back! He has the long tube uvb light. He does have a dripper in his cage!! Thank you so much for the help ! I really appreciate it!

Sorry!! I’m very new to this thread thing so I thought I’d ask about kidney failure and stuff!! My bad!

Thank you so much for all the info... I really wish the question could be answered for me. I’ve had this guy for 6 years he was my first pet and I couldn’t have asked for a better chameleon. I wish he had a different outcome. Next vet visit will determine if the shots are working or not so I...

Me too, I give him monthly showers!! My little Cham is 6 years old... any idea on the lifespan of a cham with kidney failure? I know it’s a tough topic but is it cause for euthanasia ?

We are going tomorrow so he’ll be going ASAP. Thanks for the help!

Okay, I will for sure bring that up with my vet! Is there any key attributes that distinguish an infection from anything else? His bump is hard, I don’t know if that has anything to do with it but !

Hello! hoping anyone can help me with my panther chameleon!! My almost 6 year old panther chameleon has gown a bump on his lower jaw... I learnt this about three weeks ago. I took him to an exotic vet and after getting x-rays it showed no damage to the bone. The vet gave me antibiotics if there...
