If Spock needs medication, we will have to use our funds for our trip to Germany. He is perfectly fine in the morning but in the afternoon and through the night its like he is about to die. I don't understand what is happening :(

Spock was fine this morning, but now he just looks horrible. He keeps his eyes closed, his ribs show, he refuses to eat, and he feels freezing cold. I'm terrified right now and I don't know what to do. I don't have enough money to take him to a vet.. They will charge so much.. :(

Aw! That really sucks! It happens, so I wouldn't worry about it. Once my family was supposed to end up with a Russian blue cat but we waited too long and they sold it. They gave us a grey cat instead. But, anyways, sometimes we make mistakes but it happens for the better. We still got a cat, and...

Spock makes sneeze noises and closes his eyes. Can they get colds? Does it look like he has MBD? :( http://s1363.photobucket.com/user/memeisnumber1/media/20130616_153723_zpsf3b6dca5.jpg.html?sort=3&o=1 Whenever he closes one of his eyes it looks like this ...

I live in Carencro, in Lafayette Parish. His UVB lamp is sitting on top of the wire top to his tank ( it has vents on the sides!). He has gotten better after I soaked him in warm water and his eyes aren't sunken in anymore and he has started eating again so it may have just been dehydration. I...

That's the problem. There are no vets in Louisiana that do chameleons. I'm kind of out of luck here. Also, he seems to be okay after I replaced the substrate in his tank with reptile carpet so he can't eat it all. His eyes are a little better after I let him soak in some room temp. water in the...

Grrr. Spock is just getting himself into trouble! He has been falling constantly now and I don't understand why. One of his eyes are sunken in and every time he tries to close it, it looks like he is trying to squint (that eye only). I have noticed that there is a reddish brown spot on his...

Never mind guys! He seems to be okay now since this happened early in the morning. He doesn't seem to have any broken bones or anything!

Actually, Spock is an adult by now I think.. He hasn't grown any bigger over the past 6 months or so and since we don't know when the previous owners bought him, he could be older than 1 year. We are going to petco today to buy crickets because we haven't had the chance to get any yet, but we...

We dust our superworms/crickets in Fluker's Calcium powder and yes, we provide our chameleon a UVB light.

We have just recently switched spock to superworms and he seems to be enjoying them more than mealworms. Also, everyday we feed him chopped up lettuce because its honestly the only thing he will eat with the worms. We tried other things to go with it that chameleons can eat but he refuses. And...

I NEVER said we leave him outside! I meant that we take him out of his enclosure INSIDE of my house. And yes he has a uvb bulb and basking lamp.

Thanks for your suggestions everyone! I will get to work on his water tomorrow, and I will feed him a little less mealworms too. Thank you for all of your help, I really appreciate this! (How do I delete this thread? :o )

I didn't mean substrate everyone! I'm really sorry, I used the wrong word! We use EcoEarth by ZooMed at the bottom of his tank. Also, we clean the water bowl everyday. Thank you for your suggestions on how to get him to drink water everyone!

(I didn't mean substrate, I meant stuff like EcoEarth and sand and dirt.) If you think she swallowed the bark, I would take her to a qualified vet asap because he could cause problems!

Maybe I used the wrong word!! We use a type of reptile like bedding (some sort of dirt?) It's called EcoEarth by Zoomed

Maybe the crickets are too big for the little one and she is having trouble swallowing them. Whenever my chameleon, Spock, gets his too big he will swallow constantly to actually get the cricket down. She could have even eaten the stuff at the bottom of her home. What are you using for the...

Honestly, I don't know how old he is. My school claims that the previous owners got him at the beginning of last year. And every time we feed him crickets they go to the bottom of his tank and he ends up eating the stuff at the bottom rather than the crickets.

I tried misting him but he still seems to get dehydrated after awhile. Since I'm watching him for the summer and this is my first chameleon, he is in an aquarium rather than an enclosure. We have him out during the day, except for when he needs to warm up, eat, etc.. How much does a chameleon...

I've been really concerned on the overall look of my chameleon, Spock(male). He looks very unhealthy, ribs showing sometimes. I feed him about 20 mealworms and a few crickets everyday, both coated in Fluker's calcium products. Is he healthy, or am I doing something wrong? :confused...
