As everyone else has said, if it's the best for him, then you should go through with it. It will be hard to get through, but he won't be suffering. My condolences.
Thanks for the welcome(s)! :D
Yeah, I guess I was being naive to think that he wasn't WC because he was so young. I have since heard that lll does import from farms directly to shows, so I'm sure he was imported and probably sick from the get go. Lesson learned, for sure.
I'm Erin and I've been interested in chams for quite awhile. I had a veiled a couple of years ago, but had some money problems and had to give her up. I recently bought a male panther from lll reptiles at NARBC. He died after a month. :( I think he might have been imported and ill when I got him...
