    Veiled female MBD, possible constipation

    That's actually exactly what we ended up doing, she would get settled and be fine, then try to move and almost fall. Still have not heard back from the vet... :( He's a great vet for exotics but sometimes he's a bit off...

    Veiled female MBD, possible constipation

    Okay, we put her out on the porch in a wire cage with small openings so she can't get out or stuck ( not that I think she can move that well to try, but you learn to never underestimate animals) and we'll be around to check on her very often, the kids are going to mostly be outside today. Today...

    Veiled female MBD, possible constipation

    We sat outside in the sun for a bit this morning, should we limit her sun or give her all she wants? We could make her an outside cage and put her out all day if needed. We'll be home all day to make sure she's safe and such, as we'll be outside most of the day. Gave her the Ca this morning...

    Heartbreaking...

    Our cham came from petsmart, the leaflet we got does not say uvb lighting. The associate helped us get everything the pamphlet recommended and checked it off as we went. The temps are also very wrong on them I'm finding out. The animals there were actually in good shape. We did do research...

    Veiled female MBD, possible constipation

    My mom is going to ask the vet if he will take her and board her, do the calcium shots and such for a while, if he thinks it's worth it. By this I don't mean is it cheaper to buy another cham, what I mean is the outcome going to leave her with a strong possibility of a good quality of life. I...

    Veiled female MBD, possible constipation

    Any recommended supplements? The flukers we have is with the d3, so I need to get a different everyday powder, probably the reason the petstore person said to use it once a week... Good powder recommendations? She didn't seem to want to eat, put a box o' sand in there. Is there any...

    Veiled female MBD, possible constipation

    Its not the wiggly I mind other than worrying she's in pain doing it, but the getting her mouth open, I worry that I'm hurting her mouth... Also what is the best supplement for her to be on so I can order it? I have the calcium now, but I'm sure there is a better all around supplement for her...

    Veiled female MBD, possible constipation

    Light is ordered, should be here Tuesday. Any tips for giving orals? I got it in, but I was worried I was going to hurt her as she was clamping down so much. She was having some minor leg tremors while we sat outside for a while, it was towards the end and it's very cool out, so I don't know...

    Veiled female MBD, possible constipation

    Do we just leave her in the trashcan and see if she digs? Will she be able to get around okay with her hind legs? Will her legs always be like that or is there a chance they could get better? What is the best light to get? I will order right away. We need to run the UVB and the normal one...

    Veiled female MBD, possible constipation

    I can get whatever we need for her, that is not a problem, but what can I get at say Walmart for RIGHT NOW? We have NO petstores here. We live in the middle of nowhere. The nearest petco or petsmart is 3 hrs from us. Give me a link to what I need to order and I can order it, but that won't help...

    Thanks for your input, but I don't think that MBD explains her very extended and firm belly...

    Veiled female MBD, possible constipation

    Okay, we can not find a ruler to save our lives here... I normally have one right in my drawer... But my friend and I are guessing 4" nose to vent, just a bit less than the width of my hand. She will clamp her feet on my hand, but can't get them onto the branches. The pics make her look glow it...

    Veiled female MBD, possible constipation

    I tried to do research on when they begin to lay but couldn't seem to find any answer. She has not been on the ground at all, which I read is something they usually do, she usually sits up on her perch by the light. My exotic vet is out until Tuesday, I don't know of any other vets who even...

    Veiled female MBD, possible constipation

    Please help, and feel free to help us make Pascal's environment better as well. I'll start with the fact that I'm a chinchilla breeder, I know very little about chameleons and I obviously did not do enough research before getting one. I should've know better. The cham is my daughters, it is in...
