how would I go about a blood test? I really dont know a lot of procedures so I want to be informed as I can when I show up to the vet so that I also know that they're not just doing test that might not be needed.Do I request that her blood be analyzed? or should i do something else?
-thanks...
It was a respiratory culture that was taken of her. It was basically like a swab that they rubbed inside her mouth and sent to the lab. The bacteria were what came out in the results. I have not been able to get a fecal done on her because she does not really poop that often (like once a week I...
I know very little about her previous husbandry and it is my guess that the previous owner did nothing about her being sick.
Carnivore care does contain vitamin A, D3 and phos.
-I've attached a pic of her feces that I took today after I got home from work.

So I bought a female panther chameleon from someone who moved away but it turns out she is sick. She sleeps the whole day and will only wake up when I mist her and ocassionally. I took her to the vet and they conducted an exotic culture which turn out four pathogenic bacterias.
1) Pseudomonas...
I have a couple of questions, has she been paired? have you provided a laying bing? and have you monitered her weight? I believe it's normal that gravid females will sometimes be dark and other times pink. The best way to know is by monitering their weight every couple of weeks.
Well after looking at the sambava thread i've decided to get some :p i would prefer juvies-adults so that i can see their colors a little better. contact me if you have anything available
As for the reasons you dont see more cb offspring. This locale seems to be alot like the Anks. You have to simulate the seasons to get the males to breed. Its a little more complicated than just throwing two panthers together and letting them get it on. I've bred other locales and Im trying to...
I would recommend using a reptile/cloth bag so that way the animal has a little more room to move. You also need to check the weather on both ends to be sure that it will not be too hot, now that its summer, or if it is you should plan on using a cold pack. Also you'll need foam liner to cover...
Looking for a Mitsio in the US. I know at least someone might have one or two, and may want to part with one. Let me know if you have one and are willing to sell it.
Do you know wha happened to all the ones that were out there? There seems to be near to none now, at least in the US or maybe people are really keeping them to themselves lol. I've seen some ad from past year and 09 that they were still being sold constantly, but I wonder why they have not been...
I've read previous post and noticed that there was a Mitsio boom in 2004-05 when they were imported and bred in the US. However, now they seem to be very few or at least not as many as before, I was wondering what has happen to all the different bloodlines of mitsios, as far as I know no one is...
Why do wild caught chameleons tend to have so many parasites? Is it because of what they eat in the wild? or because they get infected during importation? I've tried searching for some answers but have not found much.
