Thank you, I gave him the first injection this morning and it was really rough, he was freaking out and thrashing and even with following all the videos on here and what the vet showed about how to give the injections ike they teach you it was super tough,and the vet had a hard time with it too...
have you ever had to give yours more than one med at a time? I just read all these horror stories and i'm terrified his kidneys or organs will be stressed. She gave him Panacur for the worms, Tacizef and meloxidyl. Thank you for the reply, I am just really scared.
Hi there,
I posted recently about my cham having some shed issues, he had a vet appointment today to follow up on his fecal in which they found pin worms and round worms (very small amount) and he was given meds. He was also given an antibiotic for a possible thermal small burn on his spine...
Thank you, I do use the the calcium without d3 at every feeding dusted lightly, and then the multi twice monthly instead, but the vet asked me to increase vitamin a for a week and linked me that specific vitamin A plus one so that's what I did.
I have the reptivite multivitamin with D3 as well- can I just switch to that? I literally just got the repashy this month so he hasn't had it much. sorry for all the questions, I had a less than knowledgeable vet so I've been to two and it all gets jumbled and confusing when I'm getting...
Yes it is repashy, that's what I meant when I said vitamin A, the multivitamin kind. I was only giving once a month but I will increase frequency, he is fine this month as the vet did some extra supplementing so he has had it twice in the last four weeks
Adding to that I originally thought it could be a burn but it's literally every single spike very consistent and nothing else with no structural changes, just flaky. I will up his multi vitamin, it was already upped this month since he has had a few vet visits. So the d3 and multi are the same...
I have the Repashy vitamin A, he only gets misted at night, and it is directed so he can move away from it. The vet doesn't think it's a burn but I'll try to get a better view, all the spines are intact, just white and flaky, you can kind of see they have a casing of shed on them
Here he is this afternoon, I went to open and he turned and ran to me to eat so he is still pretty active but just struggling to shed and I'm not sure why and neither is the vet. I thought the spine might be burn but the vet says it is retained shed
Update he just climbed up more (YAY) but still worried. of course he moves after I posted this. Here is a photo of him currently in the full enclosure. You might be able to see the white on his spines that is retained shed. He is getting wormed this week so yes parasites are a concern. The...
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for input on my panther chameleon’s recent behavior. I’ll lay out the situation as clearly as I can.
Background
My 13 month old male panther chameleon has been dealing with an irregular shed recently. He had some stuck shed on his back spines, and on one front leg...
Hi all!
Just looking for some reassurance here, I was feeding my panther boy and he crawled up onto my shoulder and sat for about a minute before going back, however after he went back in I remembered I put tiger balm on my neck earlier, I had a sweatshirt on and he didn't touch any skin...
