Hey, so my panther chameleon is already 3 and a half years old, I’ve had him since he was a baby, when he was around a year old he started hanging one of his front legs and showed signs of gout disease, with the help of this forum I took him to a vet that said it wasnt gout disease, with some...
Hey so I've had my chameleon for a little bit more than 3 years now and from time to time the branches in the enclosure get really humid and tend to break or become soft, now I change all of them reddo the whole enclosure but It doesnt feel practical, so my question is, is there anything we can...
Hes doing great right now, the swollen leg comes back sometimes but I found out that changing the gut loading and giving him long misting sessions when he has a swollen leg gets rid of it in 2-3 days, of course you can always find clues of him starting to get swollen when he sleeps just see if...
I changed his diet and his swelling on the limb comes and goes from time to time, usually gets better for a few weeks and then it comes back for a few days, hes doing great with the new diet, hes always hungry even tho hes an adult and shouldnt eat that much but thank you
Oh perfect I will be trying to get him to open his mouth but if anything atleast I got the injecting the feeders strategy, I just tried while he was chewing and he stopped chewing as soon as I opened the enclosure, and thanks for the information of the airway because hes completely the opposite...
Does anyone have a recommendation for oral medication? because today was the first day that I tried, the vet said that I should just make him open his mouth and shoot the medicine inside but ive been working with him for like 30 minutes and nothing, he wont he just gets scared and runs off to...
He didnt really give me any instructions, We just covered the fact that the uric acid levels are high and we need to lower them so he told me that the two causes for uric acid levels are either high protein (overfeeding because crickets are not the highest on protein) and dehydration which I...
O
He did say that the only concerning thing was the uric acid being a 13 when 10 is normal, So maybe hes just stressed since this is the first time he got out of the cage in his whole lifetime and he has never been handled let alone taken blood from him and thats why the tongue problem happened...
It might sound paranoic but I just feel like im stuck in the middle of a situation where i can give him his regular diet that might be causing gout disease for overfeeding or lower it and maybe giving him calcium deficiency ( which might not be the case hopefully) its just that hes my baby and...
And when it comes to him struggling with his tongue not getting it out more than 2 inches Can someone give me a good diet for a 1 year old male panther chameleons because I was planning on giving him 3 to 4 full size crickets 3 to 4 days a week, but he is used to his 10 to 15 small crickets...
I just gave him food today, major change of getting overfed with 10 crickets a day to the schedule I got recommended in one of the comments, he struggled to shoot his tongue far and had to try 3 times to get the bug, I hope it has something to do with the change of food schedule or him being...
