Just had the blood test back, she has a normal level of Uric acid so it isn't gout. I have to now get X-rays done. From the blood sample it suggested high calcium levels in the blood which indicates that she is pregnant. I'll keep coming with updates if anyone is interested.

You guys have been very informative and I'll take everything on board. When I take her to the vets on Monday I'll let you the diagnosis! Thanks!

What are the products you use? Are they rep cal, I'm desperate to get this right for the future! I'll start dusting phosphorus free calcium powder most feeds, phophurus free calcium with d3 twice a month and twice a month with vitamin powder without d3. You have been more than helpful!

Do you use the herpitivite multivitamin?

So would supplementing pure calcium every feed for female and twice a week for the male be ok? With this I could use the Vetark nutrobal multivitamin with d3 once a month. Would this be a future beneficial method? I gutload using mixed veg, so any veg high in vitamin A will no longer be used to...

The guy I bought her from that kept a vast amount of montane species over a number of years said that the nutrobal supplementation had enough calcium and d3 just to supplement once a month. I have pure calcium that I use most feeds for other chams/reps but these have faster metabolisms and...

As for setup and feeding. I have her under Arcadia t5 lighting 6% in a mesh viv, she is sprayed 3 times a day. Also she gets a variety of insects (crickets being the staple, locusts, curly wing flies and the odd calci worm)

I use nutrobal only once a month, as I knew how sensitive montane species were to supplements I wanted to keep it the same as the breeder has done. As for gut loading I only no protein gut load but fresh vegetables. Out of interest what do you find works for supplementing? It's weird as my...

Hi guys not sure you can help me but in the recent months I have notice a bulge appearing on the front legs of my female merumontanus. A friend of mine mentioned it may be an absess as he said his female jacksonii had a similar condition. My other thought may have been gout but I have kept the...

Hi, I'm planning an experiment as one of my assignments for university, it involves the behaviour of my own Mt. Meru Jacksons when introduced together and how seasonal changes may influence certain behaviours. Any chance anyone knows of any articles or journals or reliable sources in which I...

My current Ambilobe male, is approaching 7. I have noticed over the last few years that his colour has started to dull though!

It looks like this little guy has now a prolapse which could have been possibly brought on by stress. Hope he is ok!

Yeah it didn't come off in his previous shed he is 2.5 yrs now and yes he has so many vines and logs and branches that are ruff to get the shed off

Hi I'm from England also tbh mate it's pointless. Just put some money a side each month and if anything goes wrong use that money. Hope this helps

Hi guys my male panther has had stuck shed on his left eye lid/crown for a while maybe a few months now. It seems pretty stuck I have tried everything to get it off. I have used cotton buds with water, I have spray in the Vic more often than usual so that he could get it off him self. Although...

Thanks everyone! I still have my boy panther at least! Just glad she didn't suffer. Yes I kept her since 2 weeks old

Never bred yes and she never laid one clutch. He passed away last night the vet said she was in pain as she had internal organ failure which change the toxins levels in her body and there she lost her balance. So RIP Lily

Has he swallowed something like a plastic plant and trying to throw it up or perhaps too big of a prey item?

Thanks guys sorry for the late response but I have been out. Got back and she has fallen asleep at the bottom of the reptibreeze and is a bright green. I'm from England so we are going into winter and I'm afraid there is no warm sun once summer has passed. But I will make her comfortable as I...

Hi guys I have a female Yemen Cham that has always been very active and a good feeder. She is a grand age of 8. I woke up this morning to find her at the bottom on her front just life less. She has no appetite I have given her water which she has taken and even put her on her basking spot to...
