It's been about a week since my last post, and I am finally at a point of closure. Hard, when I see pics that remind me of my Peapod. After picking her up from the vet last Wednesday, antibiotics, pain meds and food in hand, I went home with her. I believe she was struggling. I held her, talked...
Thanks for that information. I was told by the herp vet to keep her diet as high in protein as possible. Considering I wasn't aware that I even had a female until I took her to the vet for another issue, all of this is a miracle to me.
Thank you! The vet called about 30 minutes ago to say she's being kept overnight and the surgery will take place in the morning. Fingers crossed all goes well!
Good day everyone - I wanted to share my information with you guys, in case you were a part of this thread a couple of months ago. As of Friday, April 6, Peapod STILL had not laid her eggs. I took her in to the vet on Friday, because her eyes were so swollen, and the vet told me she was...
UPDATE on Peapod - for all who may be wondering - she now has full privacy. All 3 of the 4 sides of her enclosure is hidden. The 4th side is against a wall. I will be adding more sand to her nesting box, and possibly removing the soil altogether by tomorrow. I am prepared to take her to the vet...
Also, I saw this on another post so I thought I'd provide some answers about Peapod.
Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - Veiled chameleon, female, purchased on January 14, 2017 - she was 3 months old
Handling - Less now because the vet said not to stress her out. Maybe once a week.
Feeding -...
Thanks Stone! I tried that a couple of weeks back. I've seen her making her way down to the box, and I covered the cage, but left an area so I could peek at her. I actually mist the nesting box, so it will stay moist for her. I may have to set her on the soil itself, or sand, after I change the...
This is the day I took her from our home, after Hurricane Harvey came through. I was worried she wouldn't handle the stress, but she was happy to get out of there!
Thanks - I just feel like if she hasn't laid them by Monday, I should take her back to the vet for another x-ray. I saw them forming in late November, but some blogs I've read state that they can absorb them.. it's all a mystery! I'll be changing her box to sand and coconut substrate only this...
Hi everyone - My female, Peapod, is gravid. I took her to the herp vet in November, unbeknownst to me that she was not a he! The vet told me not only is she a female, she has eggs forming. I have followed all instructions, fed her extremely well, dusted all her food, added dubias, hornworms and...
