I can and will absolutely get rid of all of that drainage area to. It was mostly a set up for my female she laid her eggs in it. She was in there for about a year. But when I bought her she was sick I knew she wasn’t going to live I am shocked she lived as long as she did honestly. Then my...

So the very bottom is a drainage tray. Then a screen (dragon strand hybrid tall cage) then a drainage rock layer, than the dirt. There are little iso pods, there are spring tails, worms. They’re all reproducing going to town.

I use the Arcadia feeding program. So the Earth pro A, calcium magnesium, and D3. I did get him to take a few crickets powdered with it. However, if the b vitamins aren’t a cure than what do I do? He’s almost gotta have the antibiotics.

It has custodian crew and drainage.

Here is the husbandry pics you wanted yesterday I told the Dr I work with I said I know this is a husbandry issue because the perfect storm happened all at once and he was compromised it’s just pin pointing the problem. I said when Leon is outside he’s fine.

I definitely DO NOT mist his cage 5-6 times per day. It goes for 2 mins at 5 am, 1 min at noon, and 2 mins at 7pm and it’s been this way for almost a year. Their initial response was to increase his B vitamins, and get him outside in the sun. When I read the chameleon academy page my...

However when my husband picked him up he was at Petco they kept him In the back as unsellable because their vet said he was neurological. But their vet told them to increase his vitamin D3 intake. And when I got him he was getting way to much D3. That was October of last year. He turned 1 this...

What are your thoughts? I never thought he was neurological. He didn’t seem neurological, as a matter of fact he’s outside right now and seems to be fine. **this is from one of the avian and exotic specialists **

Thank you, I bought the flukers one we will see how snotty Leon does with it.

It really upset me we have natural vines that grow everywhere on our property as well as a bush we keep cutting back. I’ve learned not to ask FB for much. I come here now when I have an issue with my chams.

Agree’d

They were telling me how I was going to be the death of my chameleon pretty much. And she was already one I took in as a sick recover chameleon so I believed them so I took them out because I didn’t want to make things worse for her.

Update: Exotic specialist does not think starting medications is necessary at this time. Husbandry changes as well as b complex vitamins.

No on FB.

When I had natural branches from outside in the past with my last chameleon I was practically murdered online for it 😂🤣. I have a bush we cut back that has perfect diameter branches.

He had the dragon strand hybrid cage. Because we were having a hard time maintaining humidity and temps in a regular screen. So the hybrid cage works like a chimney effect. He’s done well in this cage up until I had that basking bulb blow then everything went down hill.

I am at work right now, I will send pictures of his cage when I get home. He does have moss vines he slips and slides when I use the plastic vines and I tried dialing rods and he did the same thing.

From what I read on chameleon academy the raising of the nose is them straightening their trachea to breathe. I do not want to treat medically if it will fix itself. But I also don’t want to to kill him.

When I pick him up sometimes I hear noises but I couldn’t rule out him just being grouchy and not wanting to be touched. As for ropes saliva I haven’t noticed any changes. His humidity throughout the day is 30-40% at night it’s between 80-100%. His day time temp is 80-85 degrees night time is...

**if we suspect upper respiratory I am going to call baytril into the pharmacy to be compounded for him ** But I know vets don’t always know what to say when it comes to chameleons. I am also contacting an exotic specialist for advice when I get to work today. I just wanted input from people...
