I also have a 5 month old veiled cham and she's the same as yours, she won't drink and she runs away when I mist. I have papertowel at the bottom of her cage in 6 folds and this is always wet. I held her and tried dripping water in her mouth, she was not too happy about it, so I deceided to...

I was told to get the vermiculite by the pet shop owner, I also asked the vet and she said it was OK. I was afraid to get sand, 'cause I read some where that it can get in their eyes. It seems many of you use sand and have no problem, Im willing to give it a try.

Its because of all of you that my cham is alive today. Thanks I will not forget, its just that right now I'm putting all my time in obtaining info for my cham's full recovery.

Thanks Jordan for all the info. I have to say its been quite a learning experience. I'm so fortunate that I stumbled upon this forum and found help, otherwise my cham would be dead by now. I'm happy to say that she is recovering slowly. The vet did not have very high hopes, but I refuse to give...

I have a floresent uvb light, the pet shop owner said I don't need a basking light since the thermometr in her enclosure reads 80 degrees. Do you think I need a basking light as well? If so what type?

I have a Veiled Cham. I was at the Vet yesterday. The diagnosis was low Calcium. She was given Calphosan Injection and Fluids Subcutaneous. I have to give her Baytril suspension orally once every 24 hours and Neo Calglucon once every 12 hours. She gets real stressed when I try to give her the...

Hi Brad thanks for your help posting a message. I have a female Cham 5 months old, I got her about 3 months ago, she was very active the first 2 months, then gradually I noticed that she would close her eyes and fall asleep when I would pick her up, which she never did before. Its been 4 days...
