Cham unfortunately passed away... climb high Izzy, we will miss you so much. We are very distraught... not sure I will get another cham

Unfortunately she looks the same as yesterday. Sunken eyes, closed, very pale, nearly yellow colour. I syringed her the painkillers this morning but she vomited them up after. Now she’s asleep again. Afraid it doesn’t look too good for her. Any way I can keep her comfortable? Vet is closed now...

Thanks. That makes me feel a bit better, my Cham came home looking the same like your Lola after surgery (as vets is closed over weekend so it was same day, about 5-6 hours post op). We put her in the healing cage and at around 6pm and turned the light off at 7. She moved a little bit and went...

Thanks. Very helpful!

Cham came out of surgery. Vet said she made it so far but obviously first 24-48h are critical (apparently they have 2 chams in right now for this exact surgery, crazy). Picking her up at the end of the day today. We have a hospital bin set up for her, vet is happy with set up. Wondering what...

Thanks so much, really appreciate it honestly! Hopefully you guys have all helped save her life.. fingers crossed. I am getting the bin set up and ready for her tomorrow. definitely appreciate going over general husbandry. Her reptivite with D3 came in today, let’s hope she gets to make use of...

Thanks. Completely get it. At least have some time to set it up properly. We have a piece of mesh we can pop over the top. Think that might work better? It is a very fine mesh Got it with the plants. That works. We have a little dropper which the water flow can be controlled by so we’ll use...

thanks. That’s helpful. I’m going to run out and get her a tote. Would a bath towel be better in the sense of it being a soft bottom for her? Or is paper preferable? And I assume you put the heat and UV down onto her box and keep the schedule of sleep etc as normal as possible? What kind of...

Thanks. This is very helpful. How long do you keep them in there?

Thanks. She's with the vet right now until her surgery Friday morning. How should I make a hospital bin? Unfortunately they are doing the surgery on Friday morning and aren't open Saturday - Monday (Monday due to a national holiday). I would have preferred they keep her to monitor, but I think...

It varies but like a day like today it is probably right at 50 or slightly below -especially with wind chill. They are keeping her until the surgery. Unfortunately as they're doing Friday surgery, so that means they won't be around overthe weekend and there's a national holiday on Monday. Not...

Thanks. Yes we have a box with a stick for transport and we put a hot water bottle in (wrapped around soft fabric) so she stays warm during transport. We've transported her like that before and she seems ok. Vet we spoke to said she's been working with exotics for over 25 years and did the...

Vet is suggesting we bring her home today and bring her back to the clinic on Friday. Other option is they can keep her there but don't recommend it. Do you guys think that's the best idea? It's about a 20 min drive each way and I don't think she loves being transported

Tough news, she unfortunately has follicular stasis - vet did the ultrasound and seems very certain. They are moving for her surgery on Friday morning.

Dropped her off at the vet's this morning. Waiting to hear back from them - fingers crossed. Vet said they'd feel her belly and depending on the condition they would do an x-ray or ultrasound (depending on whether they think she's eggbound or has follicular stasis). They said if her eggs have...

Yes very possible. Other vet said there wasn’t infection but honestly given how poor their advice was.. who even knows

Yes i spoke to the receptionist she said the vet is absolutely going to X-ray her. I heard the Cham scratching in the cage earlier so hopefully it is the right time for treatment. She’s been much more lively today and don’t think she took any day time naps (still 1 eye closed but otherwise right...

Ah lol fair enough. Well hopefully 12 hours isn’t going to make a huge difference..

Ok. It's unfortunately 7pm here so I can't get to the vet. Not ideal, I know. I'm dropping her off at the vet's first thing tomorrow morning and I'm going to go straight from there to pick up everything she needs after. Hopefully it's enough... only about 14 hours until her appt..

Thanks. I just ordered one on Amazon with the play sand also and should arrive tomorrow. Don't really have any other choice but is it ok for her to be going to the vet's tomorrow or is this something that ideally is checked out ASAP? Frustrating the vet couldn't accommodate her this evening.
