Somthing to remember him by- Murph aka KILLA CHAM

Thank you, It will be awhile before i get another cham sadly just a little to difficult to take care of right now :(

I came home from work and he was sleeping with his mouth open, than he started to fall so i saved him and tried to get him to eat but he wouldnt. He was so skinny, and the back part if his body was black on both sides which must have recently occured because it wasnt there when i went to work. I...

im sorry guys he didnt make it.

Jackson Chameleon,1 1/2 years old,has been in my care for about a year i handle my chameleon about once a month i am feeding my chameleon wax worms,meal worms, and superworms. i offer him food about every 2 days using tongs if he hasnt touched the food in his feeder. I do not gutload those...

Also, when i touch him or go to pick him up he doesnt act normally. which would be trying to get away and puffing his body up, but he still has a strong grip which i know that is a good sign

yes, he was put on baytrill 22.7mg inject

I took my jackson chameleon to the vet about 2 months ago and had him treated for a mouth infection. He seemed to recover perfectly. Now hes been acting strange and hasnt eating in at least 4 days ! When I offer him food he acts like he wants it, he will turn his head towards the food and...

Its possible, i was unaware that they bite and released 2 or 3 (not at the same time) on nearby branches during the day when i knew he was hungry. So its definetely possible one got him while he was sleeping or somthing, i ussually put all his food in a feeder i have made for him and its very...

Thank you ! i tried this and it worked, still it was very difficult to get him wrapped in the towel hes just really aggressive i guess and does not like being handled,but after i got him wrapped up he accepted it.

good idea, i will try that tommorow. Does anyone have any idea on why this mouth infection occured ? so i know how to prevent it..

Also, any suggestions on how to get him to take shots better...? have been giving him 1 shot a day prescribed by my vet, and when i gave it to gim today i had him in 1 hand(shot in the other) and he was very aggressive towards escaping and getting rid of that needle. Which is understandable but...

Ok , thank you for all the advice ! I will start putting oranges in my cricket keeper, although i do not gutload my superworms... first time i really thought about doing it becuase they come in a package of somewhat like woodshreddings. And yes, I do not give him any supplements. I used to the...

Maybe thats why he hasnt eaten today ? The pain could be to much for him, but he is getting around just fine and drinking when i mist him so other than not eating he seems to be doing better. I had no idea jacksons were prone to mouth infections. I think you might be on to somthing with the vit...

Also i have started him on shots, given to me by the vet. 14 shots 1 each day the anti biotic is called Baytril and each injection is 22.7 mg
