    Cham only eats ficus leaves no food.

    Ok, I'm stumped. Our newest cham was eating up a storm. Anything he saw he'd eat. Then last week he stopped eating. Then I began to notice he eats the leaves on his ficus. He has plenty of access to water so its not a water thing. I keep his tree well misted now just in case. His fecals are...

    Yellow saliva?

    I hope with all the research and trails on our poor guy with mysterious LRI that some good will come out of it for him and the whole Cham community that I can report back on. One interesting note the vet mentioned was during the failed attempt to get a lung wash/culture he noticed the saliva...

    Anyone use azithromycin on their Cham?

    Still battling this weird LRI. The doctor is stumped because we can't get a lung sample. I've been nebulizing a med for him however its not having much affect. After a discussion this morning he said he could have azithromycin compounded and try it although he's never recommended it for...

    Nebulizing meds

    I'm wondering if any members have experience with doing this. And if so, if the method worked successfully. I need to do this for a Cham as the only delivery method since we can't get anything directly from the lungs to diagnose the mysterious respiratory issue.

    How often does your Panther gap?

    Aside from when they're too hot? Got back from the vet and since we couldn't get a catheter down his trachea to inject and remove saline for a culture we're not sure. X-rays show clear lungs. He gaps more than I ever recall. Cool temps as well. We're going to try nebulizing some...

    Show me the inside of your Ambanja!

    Got back from a frustrating but informative day at the vet with this mysterious gaping issue. The vet commented on the how yellow his mouth was in places and wondered if that's just normal for some Ambanja's. Can you upload pics of your Ambanja's open mouth if you have them? Much appreciated.

    Anyone have their Chams sinuses flushed?

    Been battling a mysterious respiratory infection. Never any signs of liquid/mucus bubbles in the throat. He gaps often. Had him on 20 days of antibiotics (10 Baytril 10 Fortaz). I'm now thinking its URI rather than LRI because I can hear wheezing through his sinuses when his mouth is closed...

    Treating LRI (URI) with warm mist is recommended

    LRI or pneumonia is common to our animals. While many of you insist on calling it URI it isn't as my vet chides me. These are lower respiratory issues unless there is discharge from the nose. Then its URI. Otherwise bubbles in the throat is from the lungs and lower respiratory. I make this...

    Anyone in the L.A. area have fresh Ponazuril?

    Not more than a week old? I think mine expired because it having zero effect on a re-infection in one animal. Its hard to believe this drug went from total annihilation to no effectiveness. Being a compounded version my vet thinks it won't last more than a month if that. The stupid pharmacy in...

    Cham won't drink then gorges on water

    I'm trying to figure out what's up with a Panther who been on a hunger strike which has turned into a weird water strike. Humidity is around 50%. Water is always available. He won't drink for days and then he'll gorge on up to 25ML+ of water. His weight is fluctuating wildly due I would...

    Just got an Alii Ficus

    I started a post about the Amstel King ficus as a better replacement for the frustrating Benjamina ficus that drops leaves and is very fragile. After a long search I found an Alii Ficus which is close. Here's a photo of it and leaf comparison between it and a Benjamina for scale. Its...

    Anyone using Amstel King ficus?

    I saw these in a store and finally tracked down the name after 4 months. These to me are much nicer than the typical ficus. Larger leaves, tree style, don't drop leaves as easily indoors. Here's a link: http://www.ficustree.com/ficus-amstel-king.php Anyone here using them?

    Humidifiers: reg cold or ultrasonic?

    With the heater sucking all the humidity out of the air its time for some humidifiers. All the great low cost ones people mentioned before are gone. Right now I'm thinking of either of these. One is ultrasonic and I wonder what the advantage of ultrasonic is...

    Chameleons and Coccidia - Ponazuril offers new hope

    I've been charting the effects of Ponazuril on a new animal I got at the show almost a month ago. He's a 5 month old Panther. I started with Appertex but the animal didn't do well on it. This could've been due to providing the med orally. Each time by the 3rd day he would stop eating and...
