Thank you so so much!!!! I have phoned round all vets here and none have the experience to help me. She is lethargic just now and I am having to lift her up to her basking spot each day as her front legs seem to have weakened, however she is still eating drinking and pooping.
I am giving...
Here is the X-ray picture of Daisy from the vet today, can anybody confirm if this does show either eggs or MBD?
Please help, any advice is extremely appreciated!
She isn't a huge eater so I wouldn't say that she is over fed but I did notice she looked bigger in the abdomen. I'm not sure what shape/size the 'eggs' are because the vet didn't let me see the x Ray picture. What other reasons would cause her lack of energy etc? If they are eggs in the early...
Ok, so I took Daisy back to the vet today he said that the eggs are not formed enough to give her an injection of oxytocin. I asked what he recommended and he said to leave her be unless she goes off her food, and if this happens she would need surgery.
He said there are four eggs in the...

Thank you so much your experience and advice is invaluable to me as there is a huge lack of specalist vets here for me to speak to. I will arrange for her to go the vet ASAP and have the injection to rush things along as I would hate to loose her or for her to suffer.
Thanks for your help, I am going to phone the vet back tomorrow to see if he can give her an injection to stimulate her to lay the eggs as I am not convinced she will be able to do this on her own due to lack of strength etc
Again today when I have returned from work she is lying at the...
Thanks again for your help,
I am extremely worried about her but the trouble is where I stay there is a huge lack of experienced reptile vets. I am going to call the vet back that gave me the initial advice and enquire about the injection you have described which you help her start laying...
Hi,
Thanks for your reply and advice. If I leave her in her laying bin at the bottom of her viv she is unable to climb up to her food and dropper so I have been lifting her up every two days and the last I seen her eat was two days ago and she pooped yesterday.
The vet said the eggs looked...
Thanks for your reply, I am not at home just now and don't have a recent pic to post. She doesn't appear any different from usual and I haven't noticed any obvious changes apart from her lack of strength.
I will post a pick when I get a new one, thanks again
Hi,
I have a three year old female Panther chameleon, she has never previously laid any eggs. However about 2-3 weeks ago she became very lethargic and appeared to struggle climbing her vines etc as such I took her to the vet this week.
