OK every one today is the 10th day i have given Chubs his neomycin. It took a full week to see any real results, but the last 2 days he has been shooting his tong out to eat. He hasnt shot it too far but to see him shoot it out for a 2 or 3 inch grab is really a big relief. I finally feel like...
I agree, I hardly ever see my panther drink from his dripper but he stays well hydrated. and the few times I walked in on him drinking he stopped. The only time I really see him drink is when I hand water him with a spray bottle but even then he doesnt always drink. I would get a dripper if...
to me it looks like it might belong to the NIGHT LIZARD family. this is a family of lizards common to so cal. Usually there pupils are vertical and they have no eye lids like a gecko plus they stay fairly small usually 5-10 in., but if this doesnt add up then maybe its a type of WHIPTAIL they...
yea at the pet store they had 3dif brands of cal but they all said with d3, thats why i didnt really think too much of it and kinda thought all cal came with d3. Im going to check a few othere stores but might just have to order some online, thanx
Thanx everyone:D, I really hope this is just a minor infection and he will make a full recovery. I will keep posting updates on his condition. 1 to let everyone know how Chubs is doing. I named him chubs because he was so fat and healthy looking when i got him from the breeder, hopefully he...
Thanx, She took a chunk of fresh poop and went in the back with it first thing, so im pretty sure she checked for parasites. I found out the name of the antibiotic. It was on the reciept:rolleyes:, its called NEOMYCIN she said it shouldnt be that hard on his system and is effective on a broad...
OK for everyone who was following my thread titled (too much d3). I just got back from seeing Dr Tracy Anderson, who was very nice, helpful and reasonable.Thanx julirs i told her you sent me and she smiled and chuckled a little. he took a fresh poop in his carrying cage she looked at it and...
thats kinda crazy, ive seen dogs chase and chew their tails but never heard of a cham doing it. Maybe she was craving a juicy worm and thought her tail was one. or maybe a cricket or something crawled on her tail and when she went to eat it she pulled her tail into her mouth by mistake. I dont...
Your probably right...........I just feel helpless,i hate seeing him like this with his edema and everything, Should i give him a nice long warm shower?, i think i read thats good for easing gular edema
PS: Julirs did you get the pm i sent you, i couldnt tell if it was sent sucessfully
I just remembered i have a med called metacam,its a pain killer /anti-inflammatory left over from a past vet visit, its mixed proper still good and i know what dosage to give, does anyone think its a good or bad idea to give him some to try and make him at least comfortable until he can see the...
i just got some superworms from the store and they were packed in oat meal. Ive never seen this before and was just wondering if oat meal is good for gut loading ? should i give some oat meal to the crickets as well? does anyone know any pros or cons, i usually gut load with oranges and some...
I looked at his website and Dr A sounds great but thats over a 2 hr drive plus i learned that senior member Julirs is located near me and referred me to the vet she uses, Dr Tracy Anderson, I called and the earliest appointment i could get was 9am Wednesday her office is just about a half hr...
sounds kinda like what ive been going through, check out the info on my thread titled ( too much d3) its still close to the top of the recent health forums there are some good links people posted in there responses that might be helpful. i would attach them but i dont really know how
thanx Julirs i will give her a call, Im not sure exactly what is going on with him (10mth male ambanja). (look at my thread titled "too much d3") it tells whats been going on but to sum up, He got a skin infection, that seemed to be getting better then after that pretty much cleared up he...
Please if anyone knows of an experienced vet in St Petersburg Florida. My cham is having some serious health issues i believe his kidneys may be stressed and or failing, the vet ive been using isnt much good and my cham is going down hill. He is still strong but i fear he wont be for long. I...
Yes he def needs medical help from an exp vet. I looked at the link for Dr. Alfonso, Maybe he knows a good vet in my area he could advise, i didnt see any email adress for him? does anyone have one? Its the weekend and i dont want to call the emergency line if im not even in the area.
really? i have his dripper on almost all day and water him with a spray bottle at least twice a day usually first thing in the morning and then again in the evening. could there be any other reasons for the orange color? could too much vit A or D3 cause this
does the orange color mean anything. i have been using carrots in my gutload, could this be it or is there maybe another reason for an orange coloration
here are pics of his poop this morning, if anyone would like to comment on it. it has had a little orange in it lately. thought it might be from the carrots in the gut loads but dont really know,
