Here is my little Buddy before sleepy time. I like his "what the heck are you looking at" face. He is still recovering from MBD and his lips are still puckered. I love my grumpy little boy.
Thanks for the responses. I am not trying to be a complainer or a pain in the butt. I am simply looking for answers and sometimes when I post questions I get one or two responses and that is the end and everyone has moved on. Therefore, questions are not answered in full. This forum is my...
I've noticed that if the topic of conversation doesn't seem to be important enough, no one on this forum will continue to comment.
Soooo, I found this article online written by Steven J. O'Meara
"Mouth rot (stomatitis)
This is a bacterial infection in or around the mouth caused by a cut...
My chameleon has been diagnosed with mouth rot. The vet said that it may not clear up, even with proper treatment. I was just wondering how it is deadly to my chameleon, since I forgot to ask the vet. What does it do to their sensitive little systems?
So I took my little booger to the vet for his second dose of dewormer yesterday. He got his first dose two weeks ago and weighed in at 28 grams. Yesterday he weighed in at 29 grams and that means he gained a gram in two weeks. I know that he is behind in his growth due to having MBD, but at 7...
"it does smell alittle funky but i thought that was fecal."
I sure hope that doesn't mean that you have fecal laying around in the pot's dirt. Recently, I went to the vent and found out that my chameleon has nematodes. My vet blamed it on the hibiscus I kept in my cage; which had some extra...
I had my first the other night. A huge hornworm and a baby veiled were facing off. Then the hornworm started to nibble the veiled's face and started to eat it. Luckily I woke up before I saw too much. What the heck is going on in my brain at night?
Thanks for advice Sepioteuthis. That is basically what I did before when I was giving him his meds. I bug him first thing in the morning when I turn on light, give crickets and mist. Mist once again when I get home and I do it through the screen to avoid him getting more upset. Then, before...
So here I am, totally excited that my 6 month old veiled is recovering beautifully from his MBD. Today he will be getting his big by cage (24x24x48), a brand new ficus and a brand new bromeliad. I made an appointment to see my vet yesterday to get a fecal done and to check on Buddy's progress...
My living room floor sometimes looks like a battleground. A casualty here, a casualty there. I never worry too much about escapees, since the don't seem to live very long and are dead by the time I notice them. Somehow they manage to squeeze out of some of my cages and I am always amazed at...
Yeah! Spoke too soon
I went to give my little booger some crickets this morning and I noticed his knees were beginning to shed. This is his first shed in months! I am so excited to see him growing and improving. Next week I am taking him to the vet for a fecal and an update on his overall...
