ok not saying this is for sure it... But my cham ended up with black teeth and he was raised on the Earth pro products.... Sooooo it may very well be the beginning of staining to the teeth...
Oh my! He certainly does pose and poses well! What a sexy little man you’ve got there.No I swear he models for the camera lol which is cool except when I’m trying to get him to gape like a normal cham
here’s some Flick pics for your viewing pleasure
Oh wow! I appreciate you bringing that up, I never thought about that. So did you switch to using a different supplement? Did the color ever reverse if you did switch supplements? If it is just superficial staining omg I would be so happy
I have a thing of Zoo Med Repticalcium supplement that I never used, do you recommend that I start using that instead? Or suggestions of a different supplement?I had the same thoughts! I wet the qtip because I didn’t think dry would go very well and I flattened the qtip on a paper towel to get the excess water out. Only problem was it didn’t make it in his mouth lol. I’m hoping it’s something benign but I’m going to keep a very close eye on it and probably try again with the qtip soonI’m not qualified, Cham-wise, but being a mom of 4 with lots of human and animal experiences, I just wanted to pop in and ask if the Q-tip should be dampened with water and squeezed out (to smash fibers together) prior to going in his mouth? I wouldn’t want any fibers to stick and get caught up in his digestive system… just a thought I wanted to put out there for consideration. He’s precious and I hope it’s just a case of needing something like a human “water/jet flosser” around the gum line to dislodge some dirt!

Interesting. His teeth look pretty cool tho hehe but in all seriousness I’m glad to hear your guys teeth are overall still healthy despite the color. Do you think from the pictures it looks like just staining??
Yeah I tried rubbing one with my nail when I first discovered that it was not normal. Nothing came off. And they are strong as hell because he has no issues ripping through leaves or tearing up his feeders. lol
Thank you so much for all the help. Me and Flick both appreciate it!
Mine have black teeth too.
It’s good to know it’s not too unusual. Of course... I never see her brush them ....
Do you use the earth pro A supplement too?
No I don’t. Nor have I used the one Beman mentioned.
That’s good to hear it’s not too uncommon.. do you use the earth pro A supplement?
Lolol!Our Cham may also be a smoker... who knows? We’re not there all the time
No, I think mine are coffee drinkers.Our Cham may also be a smoker... who knows? We’re not there all the time
I did use it for a few months, but her teeth were already black. It may have been staining from blueberries that I gave her when I believed it was ok to give occasional fruity treats to my veiled girls.
