I use so called "ear sticks" and cover them in the paste (it's semi transparent, blue substance I was given by the vet, but he didn't tell me it's name, but I can ask about it. Once the stick is covered in it, I'm trying to gently open his mouth, usually he won't do it, so I'm limited to...

UPDATE: While his lips began looking normally, I noticed something worrying when brushing his teeth-they became a bit dirty once again, despite brushing them two times every day. And additionally- I've noticed some blood droplets when gently rotating the paste-covered ear stick. I can guess that...

Got back from the vet yesterday. The dead tissue was taken out from the gums. I'll be giving him Vitamin C one time every day, calcium every day, and brushing his gums and teeth with the antibacterial paste the vet gave me. I actually was possible of injecting the Vitamin C into a dubia, which...

The UVB is Arcadia 6% which is located directly on enclosure's ceiling. I was confirmed it's a correct one

I only contacted with my vet via Messenger, I'll be visiting him soon. As i have supplemented him with vitamins I think MBD is not a case. However, if that's really a mouth rot, where could it come from? I was nearly sure that this color was caused by his gums being affected by heat lamp and...

As I didn't really know how to help him keep his lips closed, I think the front of his gums just got burnt :( Here's how it looks like. The vet recognized it as stomatitis.

I mean that I suspected the parasites to feed on all he was eating, including the nutrients, vitamins and the calcium, leading him to not absorb enough of them to stay healthy. Speaking of opening his mouth, it was only necessary for me to open his mouth at the time of medication, and force...

Today, our vet confirmed that there were no parasites in Jojo's samples, so I guess the lack of vitamin and calcium isn't the issue here. He generally look all healthy and stuff, he hunts on his own too, but his lip is still sagging. I'm worried that his front gums may dry if that'll keep on :/...

I use reptivite vitamins with d3 once every week, and calcium without d3 daily (at least I try to, there was a huge day streak in which Jojo hasn't eat anything, and as a result, hasn't digested any amount of calcium)

Here's how it looks like.

Hello! I'm generally happy to see my Jojo bright green again, moving and eating on his own, but there's one thing that worries me. The tip of his lips is always a bit loose, despite his mouth being obviously closed. As he opened his mouth multiple times when I was opening his cage, I could spot...

Newly bought live plant Ficus benjamina is currently on a quarantine, just to be placed in the new cage soon. I generally had less problems with finding the fecal on the leaves than on the ground, but I guess it may still fall somewhere between the branches which could make it difficult to spot...

Don't live plants catch coccidia at all? The reason behind staying with the fake plants was the fact I wouldn't be possible of sanitize them if something could go wrong. Generally this setup is easier to deal with coccidia, as there is far less chance I will miss any poop due to having the floor...

Picture hun? what exactly is it? I have already posted a photo of the enclosure.

Hello again! According to your advice, I have built an entirely new enclosure for Jojo. It is built out of aluminum bars, and the mosquito net. I have disinfected what I could from the old enclosure, and brought an additional two branches. What do you think about it as it is? I threw out the...

surprisingly, he generally looks much better after visiting a vet (more accurately, after getting infused with nutritiens) And today I just observed him from time to time. After noticing him eating, I was observing him a bit more, and have even caught him shooting his tongue to catch the...

UPDATE: Jojo has catched the crickets! I have left the cup with the crickets a bit tilted, so he could reach them more easily, and then, went back to my PC. At random moment, I have turned my head towards him, and I have actually noticed him eating the cricket! I'm not really sure how exactly...

Got back from the Vet yesterday. He has provided Jojo with a necessary nutrients he has lost due to not eating much on his own. Today, I tried to feed him with the tiny field crickets, which he become very interested in at the beginning. But as he lowered to them in order to reach them, he...

As for now, no reaction to moving feeders. As I'm sure he has already eaten some food I have force fed him last time, I try not to stress him with force feeding too much. His last medication was on 14.02. and since then, he still hasn't hunted anything. Day after tomorrow, I'm going to vet with...

Don't get me wrong, but I just would like to get more sure about it, as I could even be possible to make a similar mix right now. @Beman is it safe to feed chameleon with mix containing honey? I have heard that Iguanas are sometimes fed with it, but in term of carnivores like chameleons, I'm not...
