She doesn't seem to be getting any better. She doesn't even want to lift herself up. She is more comfortable hanging from two limbs and a tail. The other half of her body just hangs.
I moved her from her larger cage earlier and she is now in the smaller one. The red lamp is a 50W.
I...
Updated info....please help! I don't want to lose her. I almost took her to an emergency vet, but knew it would stress her more.....this is all I have until my experts open shop in the AM.
Here is some recommended information to include when asking for help in the health clinic forum. By providing this information, you will receive more accurate and beneficial responses. It might not be necessary to answer all these questions, but the more you provide the better. Please remember...
I'll look into getting one. I have adjusted a lot in his cage and everything is in order.....I just don't know why he keeps hanging his mouth open. I don't think he is too hot.
I have a temp/humidity gauge between his uva/uvb lamp and the basking lamp about the height of his branch. It is probably warmer directly underneath the lamp.
I have a 4-5 month old veiled chameleon and I am noticing some odd behavior from him. We have had him since June and never had any issues. We also have another veiled that doesn't have any problems......
He is in a exo-terra glass terrarium with sphagnum moss on the bottom. I just watched...
I picked my female veiled Cham up yesterday and of course she started hissing and opening her mouth. I noticed a dark brown chunk in the back of her throat. I touched her veil and got her to open again and stay open for me to look. Is this just residual crickets? She is acting fine, just want...
I have my Cham is the medium sized one like you posted. I put her food in a clear plastic container until she got a bit bigger so the food wouldn't get lost. Humidity and temp stay regulated and she is doing just fine. Make sure you are using the 5.0 bulbs and a basking lamp. I had a severe...
I am going to pick up a second veiled chameleon today. Mine is about 3 - 3 1/2 inches long and female. The new one is (not sure of gender) and about an inch long. Can they be in the same enclosure or should I buy a second one?
How many crickets should she be eating in a day? I read they won't overeat, which is great, but I fed her 5 this morning and when I got home around 2:30, I threw a couple more in there. She came fast as she could to the bin and ate them up.....
I may have to try that tomorrow. I sprayed her down again with warm water. She just doesn't want to open that one eye. A drop actually landed on it, and she still wouldn't open it. I took her out and moved it around a bit and she finally opened it, but after a few seconds, she immediately...
I have a fogger set up and I mist twice a day. I'm afraid I'll stress her out if I put her in the shower. Will I kill her from stress? I've just read so much and there is so much to go from, I don't want to do anything wrong. I read they don't like to get wet.
I've been gut loading the crickets. I just threw a few carrots in there to amp up their Vit. A. I have the fluker's orange squares and mustard greens in there too.
I have a clear plastic cup I put in there and I just put the crickets in it. When I close the door and walk away she moves straight to it and eats them up. This will work until she gets used to me more. I've only had her a week.
My new veiled cham I have had for a week keeps rubbing her eye on the branch and blinking real funny. Looks like she has a bulge inside her lid when she moves it around. No puss, crust, or anything that I can see. Any Ideas?!
