    Update on chameleon with black markings (Roxy)

    Oops sorry I meant to tag you, not Erkle! Does your cham have eggs? If so, my theory with Roxy is the eggs are possibly pressing on some nerves or her spine and causing the discoloration. I also know when vets stick chams with a needle it can cause discoloration

    Update on chameleon with black markings (Roxy)

    @ERKleRose it's worth mentioning that Roxy was constipated for quite some time and, per our vet’s recommendation, I upped her humidity and misted her longer with warm water. It did help her poop, but even before she pooped I noticed the black markings were starting to fade. I don't know if it...

    Update on chameleon with black markings (Roxy)

    The black markings on Roxy’s abdomen and shoulders have almost faded away completely. However, her tail and leg are still black so we are continuing to monitor her. Good luck with your cham!

    Black markings on female veiled chameleon

    Yes I have seen discoloration like that in other cases of egg binding too. However, she isn’t showing any signs of egg binding like lethargy, loss of appetite, or straining so I’m not sure what to make of it

    Black markings on female veiled chameleon

    Today is the 11th day of no BM. About a month ago she didn’t poop for two weeks. On the 14th day of no poop I gave her a couple drops of olive oil and the next day there was a poop. It was normal sized and her pooping schedule went back to normal after that. I always thought perhaps she wasn’t...

    Black markings on female veiled chameleon

    Interesting. I am not ruling out that it’s related to impaction, but she started showing the black markings on April 8 (possibly before- I have a vague memory of seeing what I thought was dirt on her foot before April 8 but might’ve been those black markings) and then had a bowel movement on...

    Update on chameleon with black markings (Roxy)

    I have not brought her to any vets yet because I’m trying to keep things as stress-free as possible so she will lay her eggs. Thank you for your reply!

    Update on Roxy The black markings are now on both sides of her body but are not spreading any more as far as I can see. She started shedding her head and back on Sunday and it looks like her legs will shed soon too. She is still active and eating (however, she went off her food for two days...

    I live in Southern California near LA. I've seen people recommend Dr. Greek on these forums but they're booked for the next month. I asked to be put on the waiting list in case something opens up
