The vet was out today, but will call in the morning.

We had one with eye problems. It wasn't swollen though and more dry, closed and not used. We misted heavily and used a moist q-tip extremely gently to get the crust off when needed. She did get better, but shortly after died for an unknown reason. We mist however often it takes to keep the...

Sorry for the looong delay. Holiday and work got a little crazy. Unfortunately she did die on Thanksgiving morning after a good battle. I can confirm she wasn't gravid. We've taken a lot of the ideas from that terrarium link and made a bunch of changes. We also switched to using supplements...

No interest in the crickets, but she is still hanging in there. She didn't seem to improve significantly today. She's sleeping for the night now. Edit: Also thanks again for all the info. kept temps around 75 all day. Kept spraying her. Didn't see a fecal sample yet. She does have UVB...

Sorry been a busy day. Wondering if it is a good idea to offer food? She's slept most of the day, but has been standing up. Been misting regularly and heavier than normal.

Hey all, I have to run to an appointment, but wanted to at least post before I left. Thanks a ton for the replies I will get back and reply in depth later today. She looks a little better this morning and looked right at me so that's a huge improvement. She is walking on the dirt right now...

Thanks for the response and info! She did look pretty dehydrated so I gave her regularly sprays for a while (no shower since she is so small). Towards the end she stood up and drank a few drops and has been standing up ever since. That seems like a small improvement. I guess we'll see how...

I called around to a few vets I haven't been to yet. Just as I was afraid none of them were great. I asked them to be honest if they actually see a lot of chams or even pygmy chams and have experience and the best answer I got was "yeah we see a bunch, but honestly by the time we see them they...

Well she sure isn't looking good. I took her out and put her in a little enclosure for herself. She walked briefly on my hand in the process, but then went back to sleep on my hand yet. I tried to give her water with a syringe, but she didn't respond. I put a container with dirt in her new...

Thanks for the reply Txherp! She is supposed to be captive bred. I got her from: http://www.bigappleherp.com/Pygmy-Leaf-Chameleons-Captive-Bred-Babies?sc=27&category=13667 Its weird how they sell them as Pygmy without mentioning which species. I've ordered twice and gotten different...

Just wanted to update this post. I put in the bucket and she had no interest in it at all. Turns out she was looking for sprouts to eat. She really loves to eat certain greens and I had tried clover sprouts. Apparently she really likes them because as soon as I put them back in a bowl on the...

I missed that PM, but found it now - thanks. I was a little confused and replied to it. She does look round, but I think her tank mate who is a male is equally round, but these guys are new to me as well so I'm not sure either. I'm really confused as to what is wrong with her. She's not...

For comparison here is her cage mate. He wasn't so easy to photograph and he was wet because I just sprayed, but he's there in his spunky look.

Got a picture of her this morning. She looks like she feels miserable :( Would it be good to avoid getting her wet when I spray while she is sick?

Thanks for the info Hoj, no reason to apologize! I'll wait to see if anyone else replies and I'll also get a picture today.

Oh no - yes I am doing it with every feeding, but they are only getting fed every other day. So for example Monday they would get the calcium and then when they are fed again on Wednesday I would use the vitamin. I have been following that same schedule with a rh temporalis as well as our...

She is super colorful and is walking around on the bottom of her cage. She has never done this before. Is there something wrong and what should i do? Thanks
