Black dots!

Hey,

so I have a Jackson
Less than a year old
Last had babes about 2-3 months ago
Has been shedding for a little while now but now has black dots all over her!

I know little to nothing about Jackson’s. All of the spots seem to be on her back end. Do you feed crickets? The only thing I can think of is loose crickets may have bitten her.
@JacksJill is our expert on Jackson’s and can provide much better input.

Yes I feed mostly crickets she doesn’t like the worms and Dubai roaches as much. That makes sense, and would also explain why the bumps are raised like that.

If there are any open wounds and you happen to have a silver sulfadiazine cream, you could put a tiny dab on them. Neosporin without pain relief would work too. To prevent crickets from trying to eat your chameleon, keep a small piece of greens or vegetable in the bottom of your enclosure so they’ll eat that instead.

It looks like bruising but it could have underlying cause.
