That is a great idea I will take her outside for a short period of time. For an update she is beginning to turn black with spots of green she is fighting but it is too late.
I wish I had found this group much sooner you guys are great and I think I would have been able to save her if I had known sooner. I will NOT be buying any other animals from a pet store and if I do end up getting another chameleon I will come and check out what you guys have to offer. Seriously...
No it’s definitely understandable! Thank you for your help I’m hoping things can be better but I’m prepping for the worst right now she doesn’t seem to be holding herself up anymore or clinging onto anything I have her propped up on one of the leaves of her new real plant under the basking...
she isn’t on the ground she’s been climbing in her cage but she can’t hold her balance and is blinding walking so she keeps falling. I couldn’t find the lightbulb requested in a store near me I would have to get it online which will take time.
Thank you so much for the feedback I’m sorry that I’ve failed her and you guys I’m going to try and get her through this, but I will never buy from a pet store again that’s 110% sure.
I went out and got everything that you guys told me to this morning. And when I got home her skin is beginning to turn a yellowish green her ribs are starting to show more. She is walking blindly because she won’t open her eyes and isn’t taking in water anymore. I’m very very worried she isn’t...
Thank you so very much for this help I will make sure I start getting everything I need for her! I started off turning off the light at night and was yelled at by the lady at pet smart because she “uses the heat to metabolize her food and needs it 24/7” I’m glad that there are educated people...

That’s what I was reading about how they should be eating constantly, but she hasn’t been eating anything really. Definitely the size of the crickets could be effecting it I will go out tomorrow when store are open and look for much much smaller crickets!
I don’t really care for getting the money back I’m going to just try my best to get her hydrated and eating again. I read that dehydration makes them have a low appetite so I’m hoping I can get her better. I would hate to take her back because I know they won’t be much help.
I do have a couple more days left so I’m going to try and get her better I really didn’t want to bring her back so thank you for that info. I keep spraying her cage to keep her hydrated and I used a plastic syringe to give her water which she drake a lot of and I’m going to keep doing that. I’ll...
