    Weird Yawning? (Previous RI Issues)

    -I stopped using calcium with D3 because my doctor advised against it while he had the RI. I had previously used it. I'm using the Herptivitie about twice a month. Once at the beginning and once at the end. - His cage is 48 x 24 x 24 inches! - I had been running the fogger all day, because the...

    Asking again about the metronidazole. He had his first dosage on Friday. I also received silk worms and he wont look at those either.

    The vet called me back today and wants to try giving him metronidazole. Does anyone have any experience with this drug and chams?

    Veiled Not Eating

I offer him worms in a cup morning and night. How long would something like D3 stay in his system? He hasn't had any...
