he has been sick lately. Started with the typical symptoms....one or both eyes shut at times, sleeping during the day, then eventually not eating reguarly. I took him into the vet, where he was given a round of antibiotic there, fluids and blood was taken. his phosphorus level was a bit...

showers are always good for chams....mine anyway, perks him up, both the water and the steam that builds in the bathroom....and a great opportunity for him to get hydrated.

It sounds like the best option is a trip to the vet, as in many cases. From what I know about cham health, many health problems are evident by changes in the eyes...even if it is not an eye problem directly. In the short term something you can try to perk your cham up a little, while also...
