Thank you both. I am going be getting an autopsy done on him.

Rango has passed away this afternoon.

Thank you, I will show my dad this since he is the one that sets it up. :)

His white blood cell count was 3,000 - which is way to high and that indicates an infection. He is dehydrated because of the infection. Dr.Driggers said that he probabley does have excess phosphorus and that is what he is worried about as well as the infection attacking the kidneys and liver...

The vet explained the phosphorus to me basically the same exact way you put it. I did mention my gutloading in the "how to ask for help" form i posted in the beginning. I said I gutload with all types of greens and carrots. My cage is set up how every one else on here has their cages set...

Thank you so much!

Yeah, he was really nice and knew alot. Im glad we went to him rather than the other vet. Thank you!

Got an update: rango is stable and his colors have gotten better. Dr.driggers is still worried on how he is going to do

Yeah i am hopeing he will come out okay. Rango perked up right away when dr.driggers gave him the iv and anti biotics. I just hope that if he gets through this there wont be too much long term damage, and that is what is worrying dr.driggers

Well, I just got back from the vets. I ended up going to Dr.Driggers for an emergency appt. Driggers said rango has an extreme infection and he doesn't know what it is. He did blood work and found that. He also did another exam thing and found that his Uric Acid level, phosphorus level, and...

I just got a vet appt at 3 pm today. I will update you guys asap. Im not going to Dr.Driggers because they are closed but his office recomended us to where we're going. The lady I talked on the phone with said that it sounds like either dehydration or a parasite. Thanks for all the help.

Thank you, I will keep that in mind. I am checking out that vet now. Im real worried about Rango.

Okay thank you!!

Yes i am positive its a mist king. My dad is the only one that knows how to adjust the timeing.and he said it can only go up to 45 seconds

I have been misting. My mister goes off 3 times a day for 45 seconds each time. I have not been seeing him drink. Working on finding a vet

He has always ran to the mister when its misting time and has always drank right away except recently. The 50% humidity usually only last till the water is dry after a misting. I have always been told anything over a 40 watt will hurt the chams eyes???

Sorry, I meant that I have not seen him drink in the past few days, when usually I do. My misting system goes off 3 times a day for 45 seconds each. My dad says that 45 seconds is as long as the mister will go off at one time. I am giveing him mistings outside currently. Will try to get pics up...
