    Dying veiled chameleon . Help?

    Thank you for all your advice. I think i may have used the wrong terminology when i said 'force'. For the last couple of weeks i have been dripping water onto his mouth and about 50% time he drinks. I usually take advantage of this and try and pop a wax worm / calci-worm in his mouth. I guess...

    Dying veiled chameleon . Help?

    Thank you.Thor is very nearly 7. I'm afraid i high jacked another post. Did you attempt to force feed / water him during this time? Half of me wants to continue to trying, the other feels like i should just let him be.

    Dying veiled chameleon . Help?

    I really hate to bother you when you are most likely grieving for your own baby but may i ask you what you did? Or does anyone have any advice. I found my little one on the floor of his vivarium this morning. Cold and confused. He no longer has the strength to climb. I've currently got him...

    Dying veiled chameleon . Help?

    I'm so sorry to hear you are going through this. I am sadly in a similar situation with my 7 year old chameleon. He suddenly stopped eating and sleeping in the day, he's slowly fading away. i think it's just a waiting game. I've been trying to get advice on what to look out for and ended up...

    Exoterra dripper plant.

    We used to use the dripper plant with Thor. He loved it and drank from it readily. Unfortunately he also used to like sitting on it. It's not very strong so quite often i'd return home to a very damp tank and a guilty looking chameleon looking at said damp patch as if it was my fault. We tried...

    How do i know if my little man is reaching the end of his days?

    Hello. I was just about to post on here. He is still up and about although slowing down. He sleeps quite a lot during the day now. He has eaten a few feeders but we have to wait for him to open his mouth (usually after he has been drinking) and pop one in. I've noticed over the last week he...

    How do i know if my little man is reaching the end of his days?

    Update: He ate!!!! I got a little nip to my finger as i had to tickle his nose with the feeder then pop it on the end of his tongue but he ate 2 whole wax worms!!! He also had a good glug of water mixed with his supplement powder. He is still pretty strong, has a good grip. Very pale colours...

    How do i know if my little man is reaching the end of his days?

    I came home to find my little man waiting for me, licking his lips but he doesn't seem to be able to shoot his tongue. I tried to drip a bug /water mix into his mouth but he didnt take very much. Is there anything anyone reccomends? I can't bare to think he will starve to death or suffer. I...

    How do i know if my little man is reaching the end of his days?

    I think i have found the problem. We missed a uvb bulb change. We feel absolutely terrible. The difference in light was so obvious when we changed it, i can't believe we didn't notice. That teamed up with being lax with supplement can't have done him any good at all :'( So bulb changed, he...

    How do i know if my little man is reaching the end of his days?

    Thank you so much for your kind words. I had an awful feeling that this might be near the end. But still really hope perhaps it's the weather change. It's been boiling and suddenly turned cold... He seems to be very unsettlled tonight. He's been in bed 3 hours and shifted positions 3 times...
