    well I think it came to the point where I cannot do anything more for my little guy. I can't stand him laying on the bottom of his cage not being able to move or live life anymore. He will not have much of a life being hand fed and not even being able to come up with enough strengh to hang on to...

    I actually Can't remember what they were. I know one was an antibiotic and one was a vitamin cuz he wasn't eating. The cream is a injectable and an oral cream mixed together (a exotic vet recommended this). I have a feeling tomorrow is not going to end up well. He is laying on the bottom again...

    I put a towel on the bottom of the enclosure with hot water bottles in the folds just so he won't get chilled. I got 2 butterworms in him this morning. He opens his mouth still for food and water, but thats about it. Poor baby. I feel like crap. I am staying home today to watch him. Good or bad...

    well thats nice to hear. Actually extremely nice to hear. If I can smell the infection now (I know it's gross) is that a good thing or bad? I think it might be a good thing because the antibiotics are breaking it down. Any ideas? I should know this as I went to school as a vet assistant but not...

    Well he seems to be doing a little better........but still bad. I took him out and he opened his mouth and I fed him 3 waxworms. He won't take crix from my hand for some reason. He is getting his nice green colors back. Although he smells really bad but I am sure that that is just the...

    Hi there! Nope no standing water. It is coming from his eye area. It really happened so quick. One minute he was fine and the next his eye was all bulgy. I have been syringe feeding him and watering him with added vitamins and calcium, Hopefully we will pull through this and be okay.

    If it does come to me putting him down I will take him to the vets of course. Poor bABY. I checked on him this morning and his eye is looking a little bit smaller. I might have to syringe feed him because he can't get a good enough shot on his food. I am not quite sure what kind of thing is...

    Well I took Mr.Bobbers to the vet tonight. The vet said that it is a type of rare tumour that starts out as an infection. Quickly advanced. We gave him 2 injections and an antibiotic cream. He is getting a fecal done tomorrow (not that it matters). I am extremely upset about this as I think it...

    hi there! I have had him since october. Not wild caught. Not oversupplemented (he is finicky about what he eats so not much going in). No swelling. I am gutloading crix with potatoews and carrots not often though. He doesn't eat many crix anyways (usually the worms) His urates are part white and...

    I have a male fischers cham. His humidity stays around 70%-80%. He is a really light color and doesn't move much lately. He has been keeping his eyes closed often too. I spray him about 7x a day. He has a humidifier in his flexarium (only on once a day or so). I just got hornworms, waxwroms...

    Fischers Chameleon

    hi there! I also have a fischers cham. Make sure to keep him in a screen enclosure as the glass ones keep iin too much heat (I learned the hard way and the resuly was a burn). Also try to keep him at the lower range of heat. I found my guy likes it a little bit colder than normal. He shoould...

    how often for calcium?

    okie dokey thanks alot brad, I will start tommorrow. So really a cham should be supplemented almost everyday of the week. That is good to know. So I can dust his worms instead of the crickets? I am just worried that the worms will sufficate because of the dust (they breathe through their skin...

    what can I feed him other than crickets?

    ya everytime I buy silkworms they die. It looks like they shrivel up somehow? Any suggestions? And with the superbugs he won't touch them, it's almost like he is scared of them ha ha. I try not to feed to many mealworms bug I feel bad and give in most of the time. And I cannot get any roaches...
