Im actually giving the reptaid because the vet found a couple of pinworm eggs in a faecal sample not because of his appetite. Yes I give him the accurate amount using a syringe And according to his weight I would never just guess using the dropper. I adequately gut load his food with fruit and...
Hi I've been treating my Cham with reptaid and every morning I have to get him out of the cage and orally give it to him which he doesn't like too much as you can imagine goes dark and tries to wriggle. I would give it to him in his food but he dosent always eat it straight away so I couldn't be...
I'm treating my chan with reptaid at the moment as they found a couple pinworm eggs in his faecal sample. It's day 4 and it's already working wonders it's really helped increase his appetite as before he was eating 1-2 feeders everyother day. His weight is only 100g so have been worried his a...
ahh thanks both of you for your nice comments and advice. yea i dont want him growing too fast i think he will just do it at his own pace. he has just shed again so i guess that is a good sign he has got bigger he seems to have grown in inches more than grams as he is know 14 inches total...
he is captive bred i got him from a breeder in the uk. He is nearly 13 months old and i was told he should weigh more than 100g for his age. I feed him every other day and he will normally eat about 2 sometimes 3 locusts or crickets. I had a faecal done and the vets said to me he had a few pin...
This is my yr old panther cham in the washing basket. Does he look healthy ? im currently treating him with reptaid as he had a few pinworm eggs but apart from that he drinks well is active and alert, just want to gain a bit more weight as currently he is 100g. im hoping the reptaid will...
Hi I spoke to Elliot from north west chameleons and he said he has had many people make the same mistake and the Chams have been fine but just to keep a close eye on him for the next 3-4days to make sure he dosent show any signs of illness or abnormal behaviour. This is day 4 after and he seems...
I feel awful I've given my Cham the wrong dosage of reptaid. I read the dosage wrong I read it as 1ml per 100g weight but my partner said it is actually .1ml which on the syringe meanings 0.1ml I'm so worried now as it says overdose can cause serious side effects even death. This is the first...
I've ordered some reptaid luckily there is a website that sells it in the uk so should be here beginning of next week. Should I disinfect the cage how about his vines branches umbrella plant etc ? Thank you so much for his help
I'm In the uk a place called dartford in Kent. Is there anything I can treat him to get rid of the eggs or do I defiantly need a prescription from the vet ?
I got jonjo's faecal test results today and was just wondering if any one has had a similar experience. The vets rung me with the result and said they found a few pinworm eggs but not enough that he needs treatment but to have another faecal done in 2 months? Is this good or bad news ? Does this...
yeah i think your right not exactly enviornmental enrichment for him eating out of a cup. Ive always offered him a variety of feeders but he got fussy for a bit ignoring the locusts crikets but eating superworms. ive tried dubias and silkworms with no luck as of yet but going to keep trying and...
Does any one have more luck with free range feeding than cup feeding ?
when jonjo was a baby he would always eat out of the cup but as he has got older he is not really interested as i have noticed often when i come home from work and he hasnt eaten a single thing out of the cup but the...
ive brought some silk worms and trying them today have to see if he has eaten any when i get home ive also got supers could try them again but dont want him getting fussy again. No i havent recently going to get one done though when he next poops.
Thanks for your reply i was feeding him everyday at about 8 months but he food intake started to slow down and he wasnt eating all the feeders. i was recommended to try feeding him every other day as they slow down their feeding as the growth slows. ive tried re introducing feeding him every day...
hi i need some advice. i have a 1yr old male panther cham Ive noticed recently his skin especially on top of his head looks dry could this be due to him needing to shed soon ? i cant remember exactly when he last shed but it seems quite a long time ago.
he is a year old now but i dont think...
Finally saw him eat a cricket :-)
i have been feeding johnjo a variety of feeders every other day and he hasnt really been bothered with the supers the last couple of weeks but he has pooped although the locusts and dubias have mainly still been left i havent really seen the crickets so i...
