    Panther Chameleon Lip infection?

    I must apologize for the long period of silence. But sadly I have to announce that this story does not have a happy ending. We went through a long battle with her eye infection as noted in my last post. We tried many different kinds of antibiotics in liquid form that we had to feed her as well...

    Panther Chameleon Lip infection?

    We have not yet done one of those reviews. It'd may be nice to have one done. Another update as to the chameleons condition. Today was the second treatment of the antibiotic eyedrops. During this check we noticed some red substance coming down and covering the iris and pupil originating from...

    Panther Chameleon Lip infection?

    I appreciatie your help immensely, I read the blogs and am now somewhat fearful of the state of my chameleon. We have had her since august and have given her nearly every feeding with the calcium + d3 supplement. Im not yet sure if this will have lasting effects although I hope not. As I said...

    Panther Chameleon Lip infection?

    My wife and I discussed your comment. Considering one option comes from our veterinarian and the other comes from an (and im assuming here) at least somewhat experienced chameleon keeper. We decided to heed your advise as we hope that advise from experience is more accurate than what our vet...

    Panther Chameleon Lip infection?

    Exoterra multivitamin and a calcium+d3 powder. The multivitamin a few times per week and the calcium+d3 could be used at nearly every feeding according to the vet.

    Panther Chameleon Lip infection?

    Today I went to the vet to have her eyes checked. While there the vet concluded that it is most likely either an infection or a vitamine A deficiency. To combat this, they gave her a Vitamin shot and gave me antibiotics in the form of eye drops. These we will have to give her for the next 10...

    Panther Chameleon Lip infection?

    Oddly enough, she is much more active today than she has been in the past 2/3 weeks. She is also eating much more now. Actually taking to the crickets we're giving her.

    Panther Chameleon Lip infection?

    Im not sure, in the rundown of the results of the test the vet didnt specify what parasites they were. Is it possible the same parasite couldve done this?

    Panther Chameleon Lip infection?

    The fecal sample was inspected a few days ago. In that the vet concluded that there were eggs of a parasite. We got some medicine that we need to give her 3 times with 5 days in between that should help her. The first dose we gave 5 days ago but didn't notice a difference in her eating pattern...

    Panther Chameleon Lip infection?

    Its called ''Eradia suspensie''. Its an antibiotic that should help her if she does have a bacterial infection that wasn't big enough to be spotted yet. Additionally, if she was suffering from some type of parasite that may have caused her to lose appatite, it should kill them over the next few...

    Panther Chameleon Lip infection?

    I just came back from visiting the vet. I called again today and they happened to have an open spot as someone else had cancelled their appointment. When we got there the vet grabbed her behind the head which caused her to open her mouth and give us a very clear look inside. Luckly we got some...

    Panther Chameleon Lip infection?

    It could indeed be true that she avoids them because they are harder to chew. I will contact the vet tomorrow to see if we can get an appointment sometime sooner. I will update when that is done.

    Panther Chameleon Lip infection?

    She does still eat, mostly the worms and she did eat crickets until we ran out a few days ago. Dubia's she hadn't had in a while and are on the smaller side compared to what she ate before. That is the thing that made me think she may just be ignoring them due to their size. We have a vet...

    Panther Chameleon Lip infection?

    Dear Chameleon owners, Since my wife and I came back from our christmas vacation we noticed that our female panther chameleon has had a weird spot on the right side of her head, on her lip. We expected it to be some kind of dirt or something but after a few days it still hasn't gone away. She...
