Just dropped him off for round two of antibiotics. Poor little guy is going to be spending the night in an incubator since the hours didn't match my work schedule. Ahhh separation anxiety!! Will provide more updates and I cannot express enough gratitude for the support and knowledge!! Especially...

Oh and the slinging he agrees with me, it's because his eyes are inflamed and the swelling blocks his vision.

UPDATE Aright, so I went to a vet that was highly recommended by a person who has a Cincinnati Chameleon rescue. She told me this guy has seen all of all her chams and she doesn't go anyway else. I am so glad I found her otherwise I don't know if I would have ever found another vet- he actually...

Update! Apparently we have a chameleon rescue person who gives resources here and she got back to me with a different vet! They are squeezing him in today, will keep you posted!

I was so happy to see you reply here. I am trying so hard to figure out this guy's care. Oberyn loves showers what what I notice and it always perks him up after. I am located in Cincinnati, OH and I'm trying so hard to find a vet. The guy I went to is sort of advertised as "the guy" I am...

And here he is relaxed at bedtime the other night and the other enjoying his mister

Here he is stretched out and annoyed

Chameleon Info: Chameleon: Male, Veiled Chameleon, 6 months old, 5 months in my care. Handling: Almost daily, if not, maybe 3 times a week. Behavior: Shy and timid, nonaggressive. Feeding: Gutloaded and calcium dusted medium crickets. I’m lucky if he eats 3, on a good day he can eat 4, but...

UPDATE: I installed the mister king about 1.5 weeks ago. Within a few days, Oberyn started shedding his whole body which I took as good news since he hadn't shed in a long time. Also, since this I have helped him pull out eye shedding twice (he still can't do it himself and it sits on his...

I just read you are blunt and direct, not rude! But I could totally see people who are on here looking just to be validated for what they are doing rather than looking for legit advice. Thank you so much for your research, I genuinely appreciate it! I am learning through your learning! Can I ask...

Thank you! Yes, raising chams has a steep learning curve, I don't get why people would get defensive (I mean unless someone was rude), it's about the chameleon not your ego.

Just purchased the misterking!!! Thank you all so much for your help, I'll post updates in the future! Love learning about these lil guys since I do plan to raise chams as a lifelong hobby. I LOVE To learn and I am learning a lot from you all!! THANK YOU!

UPDATE Today I got the script for drops+ointment listed on first page. Got the vitamin A injection and next week I'll look into doing the drops on the crickets (injection lasts a week). To increase heat and humidity I run a space heater on high next to the cage for 20 min or so during a spray...

Yeah I get this and all I was just curious what it was. I've pulled it out of his eye 3 times when he sheds and it it a perfect circle like a hard contact lens. I just find it interesting and was wondering if anyone knew what it was.

So question about the eyecaps... What is the that little tiny hard contact-like lens I help him pull out at shedding? That's what the vet it calling the cap. It's not like other regular shedding, it's harder and will blind him if I don't help him pull it off (he'll stop eating because he can't see).

Thanks for sharing this, it gives me hope that the effort could turn out. That's how Obi is- he is great for a few weeks and then hits an bad 1-2 weeks where I'm like "oh my gosh this is it, he's not going to make it this time"- it's the cycling that always leaves me hopeless about it. But it...

Thank you! Actually, funny thing, I just found out old heater in the basement and put it in there last night for 20 min or so to heat up the room, so I'm starting that now. I'm calling the vet today to make an appointment to get the ointment- I might also ask for a vitamin A injection. I'm in...

I've actually learned a lot and am excited to learn more. Like I mentioned above, I was blessed with very heathy and resilient chams in my past so I never really went to the vet until one developed aneurological disorder and could no longer open his mouth. Oberyn unfortunately has had a rough go...
