ok, here we are , a live update since im getting so many quick responses............this is jude's tail right now, after more shed has fallen off..............am i seeing something that isnt there? do they normally have markings like this? this is my first panther, so i dont really know.............
hahahah you caught that did you........and no i havent had a fecal done on him yet.........to be honest im afraid of the result.........we had jack tested (before we bought Jude) and he ended up having coccidia, and we ended up giving him horrible drugs, that seemed to make him worse, not better...
thats so great to hear :) i know how it is to have a special cham, especially one that is soooo nice and gentle :) Jack was like that, and i know how rare that was for a male veiled!!!! but yet i have Jude.........whom i had a hard time getting attatched to after Jack died, but he just doesnt...
hello all,
this just may be me being paranoid, but ive noticed a few weird things about Jude, my 8 month old panther lately. he is perfectly normal, acts normal, eats and drinks normal, and his poo's look normal, but this one was kind of grey in color..........and i should mention that his...
Hello there............a member brought this thread to my attention, i see you live in alberta as well. but im not sure where, it sounds like you are really north. i live in edmonton, and recently had to take my late cham to the vet, the best one i found was in Sherwood Park Alberta, Park...
this is possibly the greatest thing ive ever seen! i always hear of veileds eating the foliage and whatnot, mine never have, and i have never seen one do it!!!! hahahahahah this is great :)
i know you're not supposed to pull off the stuff that is still attatched........but if there's a piece like dangling from his face, is it ok to take that off for him????
hello all :)
i have been noticing that Jude ( 8 month old male panther) has been having some wrinkly skin lately......within the last week or so.......with jack ( my old veiled) the vets told me that loose, wrinkly skin can mean dehydration..........but judes poo's are all normal, pure white...
hello all, thanks for the replies. i wasnt trying to defend the bulbs..........just merely trying to find out what exactly it does to them, for education purposes for myself, and other cham owners. thanks for your input.
ah! i was worried about this too!!! Jude is a very regular dude...............and i havent seen him poop in a few days now...........prob about 4.............there really is no reason to worry????? .....................
ok, so my question is..................why does the coil light cause chams to die..............does it put out too much UV? does it always cause death/blindness? in all cases? if they are so horrible, why are they still being sold...........to be honest, its hard to come by a linear tube UV...
hello again :) i had forgotten about this thread...............
so this is my current schedule for Jude, an 8 month old male panther............is this an ok schedule? there have been lots of opinions......
mon-fri............calcium
two weekends a month..........calcium with D3
two...
hello all,
so im having trouble keeping humidity up in my guy's cage......teenage panther cham......lol...........we just transfered him to a larger cage, the smaller one before wasnt a problem........the pet shop here suggested keeping substrate in the bottom of the cage, but i know from...
thanks sandrachameleon! the problem with raising the room temp is that Jude lives in our bedroom and we will be sweating to death lol...........what if i just took one heat lamp out?...........the thing is that its a new cage, and jude spends his time for the moment up in the corner of the cage...
hello all :)
just looking for some insight on how warm the basking temps should be in a young adult male panther chams' cage.........we just set up a large cage for Jude....all screen....100 gallon.......set up horizontally and placed on a high table........but we added two additional lights...
thats what we thought he was!!!!!!!! :) we bought him at a PJ's pets at random, didnt expect to buy a cham that day, but he was looking at us ;) and another question, what makes him amilobe vs sambava etc????? thanks again!
