Hi Dave,
I sent you a PM. In the photo, that was actually his urates and on the opposite side it was a seminal plug. The urates were left on the branch. That is all that came out though.
I have had some problems with him proloapsing though. He fully prolapsed about a month ago. I...
Dave Thanks for the advice. I will send a PM your way. As for subtraste, there is none. However unless he ate some of the potting soil? When he tries to defecate, the smell is very strong.

I put up some pictures as per Dave's instructions on photobucket. I hope it works. I put up some of his cage, one of his attempt at defecating and some pictures of when he looks healthy in comparison with his sunken in eyes. His eyes...
I gut load them on carrots and a "cricket feed mixture with calcium and Vitamin D3." I gave him another shower. His eyes dont seem as sunken in. Maybe Im paranoid....but it still doesnt explain the absence of fecal matter
Kinyonga,
Yes, it is the same chameleon. im trying to upload pictures of his cage set up. My file size is too big though. Trying to work out the kinks.
I just recently changed his cage to a bigger one. I know the flourescent tube is not the right size since I recently upgraded. I have a...
Hello,
My Cham is not looking so good. His eyes are sunken in and He has not been able to go to the bathroom for a while now. When he try's he just sits there and gapes. I think he may have a blockage. I have tried putting him in a shower. Could he possibly have parasites. About a month...
Hi Marc,

Hi Barnaby,
I have a panther and a leopard gecko lizard. When they saw each other once, my panther turned almost White!!! No joke. Needless to say he was scared.
However, My brother has a good size tank that houses many different species of frogs, and weve been told not to mix too many...
I agree with Brad. You are not a bad owner, just misinformed. Glad you found a vet. The cost of the vet when I took Goliath was $50 for consultation and $25 for the vitamin D3 shot. I had already been giving him liquid calcium so I just paid for the shot. it cost a total of 75 dollars...

You also want to check your lighting. I had a reptisun 5.0 UVB but when my little guy got MBD, I bumped it up to a 10.0 UVB. The calcium and UVB are vital. So is the eating.
P.S. When they are sick, they tend not to want to eat anything besides crickets. That what mine did. If you can, try to offer him phoenix worms cuz they are high in calcium.
Hey,
Looks like he has MBD... Metaboic Bone Disease. This is due to lack of calcium and the right lighting in the enclosure. It is like osteoporosis in chams. The second picture looks as if he has a curve in his spine by his back legs. That is a really strong indicator. Also his back legs...
