    Veiled eating less than normal

    Upon waking, his left eye was closed, he was rubbing it on a branch and it just overall looks different than the other. I’m very worried. it is ONLY the left eye however. I ordered a mister and it will be here first thing in the morning, hopefully he can use the mist to clean it himself...

    Veiled eating less than normal

    This is what I’ve been using. I used the d3 twice a month only, and the regular on every feeding. Currently making all the changes that you suggested, my pet smart doesn’t have many options for chameleon food (sad for Miami) but I feel I need to correct the food a bit. The crickets at the...

    Veiled eating less than normal

    Right. I meant when it comes to poop, I haven’t tested for parasites, only observed consistency and color. This behavior is only two days old and this blog post is my first line of action so far and reading information from others who have experienced this. Fecal test, calcium supplements and...
