@snitz427 sent me some yuuuge silkworms and Lou gulped up five of them. He is FAT right now and cozy, holy shit I’ve never seen him go crazy for food like this asides the hornworms. Didn’t even budge with the fortaz shot tonight. He’s sleeping cozy. Called the vet office for a summary and his...
You know what, maybe this is something he just discussed and ruled out because his radiographs had no sign of this, nor does he. Going to try to touch base after work
Will totally dry it out a few days. Hence clipping tonight. Gunna look like a crazy woman scoping out the best branch in my yard...potentially the neighbors
I have a few of the fluckers and they’re in his enclosure, the crepe myrtles work great! I have a huge on in the cage right now, and a huge tree outside my house so for a temporary fit I’m going to trim a couple and ziptie better pathways for him. He needs to get out the hospital bin ASAP as his...
I am waiting on an email of Lou’s bloodwork but it came with good and bad news, from what all I could gather with the information given to me over the phone. A lot was talked about, and a lot of spaces ended up blank because let’s face it, I’m an okayish listener and seem to find myself either...
Seconding direct sunlight. I am nursing a sick chameleon and the sunlight allows him to metabolize and digest. I think it’s awesome you have space for him to explore, but know very little of free ranging. I do know that with enough natural sunlight it’s great for your little guy and makes up for...
As long as he is fighting I’ll keep doing whatever in my capabilities of getting him well. He still has years of life to go. I truly hope his bloodwork shows up with something we can work on.
He gave me some attitude today and it made me so effing happy. PLEASE get mad, and I’ll let you be for a bit and reapproach later. He hasn’t stuck his beard out in over a month. He’s generally pretty docile but not thisss docile so it made my heart smile a bit to see some attitude.
No more fighting stuff in! I already put him through stress daily just doing the routine of what has already been going on for a month. As soon as I started letting him do stuff on his own he’s been shooting tongue for whatever food. I still insist with the drinking because hospital bin gets...
Well shoot! Ten minutes and he ate the damn thing! I mixed it with some waxworms I have on hand. Have some crickets but they’re from
Petco and I’m giving them a few days to soak in their vegetables. Will try with a hornworm tomorrow.
Thank you, and thank you for the recommendation to them. Yes, I had to get out of there cause I was 30 min late to work after a 2.5 hr conversation! Coulda talked to that vet all damn day, he was awesome and genuine and for sure a reptile man.
