Thank you to everyone in trying to help with this mystery. After a month of battling Reese the veiled chameleon has passed away. Last week she stopped eating and became dehydrated, so we rushed her to the vet and she had gotten a shot of fluids to help her get better, I got her home and set her...

Yeah make sure its dark, if you are concerned about heat for night, dragons can be in fairly cool temps at night about 65 degrees, I prefer to keep it about 70 degrees. I have a warm room at night that stays about at 70. You can also use a under tank heater if you need heat at night. Stay away...

What are your temps as if its not warm enough they can't digest, also do you have a heat rock, if you do throw it away. Beardies like it hot my temps usually hit 95-110 on average.

Hey Brad, Go ahead and get me those vets numbers, I will be taking her back in next week for a follow up and then we can go from there.

Yes I live not far from Brad, he is a great guy and I have seen his chams, they are gorgeous! He has been a great source for cham help. I will call my vet about the t-mycin for her eyes. I'm still listening to everyone's opinion.

i never have cleaned a cham's eye. I've done it to snakes and other lizards, but not a cham. Should I use any kind of saline solution?

I will be taking her in for a check up next week. This guy knows reptiles, why would he steer me wrong?

As far as her previous keepers, I don't have much on her. I volunteer for a reptile rescue in Colorado and we got a call that someone found her in a 38g exoterra cage in a dumpster. She was on cypress mulch and we replaced her cage with a better one. She's now in a 38 gallon all screen cage...

I recently rescued a Veiled chameleon and she has growths on her eyes, I took her to my vet and he said it was due to poor nutrition. Has anyone encountered this?
