Spoiled rotten!🥰

I would suggest a local regular vet with some reptile knowledge until you can locate an Exotic Vet. The local vet can at least treat the mouth rot, mbd (calcium/hydration injection) and do a fecal. This is what I did before I located an Exotic vet

I offer no advice as her issues are above my knowledge. Looks like metabolic bone disease as well. Start with basic husbandry. I would get her some uvb and Calcium immediately.

I have a Furbo cam for my dog. It tosses snacks on my command! 🤣

Exactly!

Update: This guy has not had 1 issue since the grasshoppers have arrived. I'm feeding him 1 large grasshopper and 1 sm-med hornworm 2 times a week. No odd positions, no upside down on branches, no laying in the Money Tree pot. Nothing! No gaping! Nothing! He seems to be as happy as can...

I have very little experience but you should only fog when the ambient temp is below 68 degrees. I would drop basking temp and only fog when temps are 68 or below. Panthers need more humidity than Veiled Chams. I run a cool mist humidifier 24/7 in my reptile room, near my Panther, to keep...

What bulb are you using for UVB?

It was mostly digested. Looked liked chewed spinach rolled into a log. But you know it's leaves due to the color and since he had no feeders for 19 days.

It actually looked like fresh green leaves, partially digested, in the shape of poop. I might have a picture. Carmelo definitely eats his greens. He was on a hunger strike so he had no feeders for 19 days but he had a poop every 3 days.

Well Carmelo went on a 19 day hunger strike only surviving on Pothos and Money Tree leaves. He delivered nicely poops that looked as if they were wrapped in seaweed sheets.🤣

His cage is fall safe. I did that ~March. I added plastic netting. He was falling from branches at that time. That's why we have the weird positions. The netting prevents him from falling to the floor. I'll just continue to monitor him.

I'm 99.999% convinced that he is having tantrums for grasshoppers. There is a slight possibility that he might be suffering from short term memory loss and he forgets to grip the branch. I just don't know. His husbandry is good, uvb bulb was changed in ~March, basking is ~82, he has a dripper...

Her rendition of the warrior pose

She tried to help him to a branch but he started bucking his head and gaping at her. He then climbed onto a branch himself. My grasshoppers just arrived. She is gonna feed him 1 to see his reaction plus today is a feeder day.

My daughter found Carmelo like this

@MissSkittles do you think he's being manipulative? I'm serious! He seems perfectly fine today. Part of me thinks he's having a tantrum for grasshoppers. I haven't had grasshoppers for 2 weeks. I've been giving him crickets. 1st week he ate the crickets. 2nd week he did not eat any...

This is him upside in the Money Tree. Notice him looking at me.

The 2 pics look like he's missing the outer layer of green skin. My Cham has missing skin. The area is now black/ gray in color.

He had complete bloodwork and xrays in late ~ March- early April. Results were very good. Healthy organs and very strong bones. He has been overweight since I adopted him. He's only getting 2 feeders 3 times a week. 1 staple (medium grasshopper or cricket) and a medium horn or silkworm...
