He has pooped maybe 2 times in the 4 days ive had him now. Its not often and there is very little when he does.
But damn he is so little im really nervous to be to rough...
i rarely see him go for drinks from the dripper cuz i moved cage out of room and he has fogger on all night from 2 till 6:30. Everything i have is on timers as well to develop good schedule. I still check in evry hour or so but i dont wanna sit in there and stress him more
samll crickets and dubia roaches and no he has cup magneted to side of enclosure and has 2 or 3 different angles to access and all are close. Sometimes there a beefy crickets in the small batches from petsmart but i dont put those in
yes everything is good, temps, humidity etc. He has a fogger at night so drinking during day is rare but i leave dripper going every other hour for 30 to 45 mins. ReptiSun 5.0 18watt 18 in(non HO) and 60 watt basking lamp from Repti as well
tried this and little man is petrified of my opening cage. Like i said thts the only time he seems to open his eyes so when he sees me reaching in there he just tries to make a getaway up the side of the cage
i would like to do tht but idk if he has the time to wait for tht since this is the 4th day with no food in his little body... Im really stumped on what to do..
I think little man is just sick and after talking with parents if he does need medicine tht has to be paid for out of pocket idk if we can afford that right now like ive said previously. So i dont wanna take him to be told he is sick then tell the vet i cant aford the medicine
anything you recommend to make it great? Ive been following everything to a tee since joining the forum and idk whats up with him. Has his own room all to himself about 8 feet in the air, so no stress or loud noises and no lights all night. Mans temps and humidity are are spot on sine the room...
hello, sorry for later start today but updates are he did okay last night i stayed in room with lights off like 10 mins every hour or so and he didnt gape. But today again he is just sitting and not moving or eating... He moved to sleep but he hasnt moved at all since the morning
its poop tht got stuck, you told me not to take it off cuz the first day i used a warm qtip and you said it would stress him out. But okay tht sounds good, its wierd cuz hid color is usually pretty green but he just looks super weak
Yes they do have a 2 week return on there animals as well but we talked to them a lot and they cant guarantee that he will be sold to us after the vet appointment. So it made me hesitant but i think it could be the best move especially before he gets even worse if he is sick.
But no i have not...
depends how far i would say hour would be tops especially cuz if it is something serious im gunna need to pay for medicine as well and idk if that will all be affordable right now for me after just getting everything he needs
Newark, Delaware. And i called most of my local vets tht take exotic animals and the only ones who seem to be very knowledgeable about chams are the ER doctors which simply just cost to much for me right now... Most of the others i have told me on the phone that they have little experience with...
God forbid i have to get another cham tho I will 100% be ordering from an online breeder like FLChams since they are located semi close to me so the transport will be short and i know they will be cared for from birth and not just thrown in a tub waiting to make a company profit
