Update
One more died since my last post.
I made the following changes, partly based off the recommendations (thank you very much for them):
1) I bought new fruit flies in case other batch had something wrong with them. I dusted them with rept-cal with beta carotene (had vitamin d - local...
Your Chameleon - I had 20 Jackson babies born on February 20th unexpectedly
Handling - only to move to a larger tank this weekend; gentle push to see if they move given it is hard to see some of them breathing

I woke up to my cat up near Beau's cage, yelled at him, and was about to kick him out of my room and on my way to the door, Beau was laying on the floor. He is breathing, but barely. He is about 7 months old. Called emergency vet and they said to clean him off using water if I didn't have...
