Bob fish - My new veiled

[davthevieled]

So I figured I would post an update and kind of a proper introduction to him since it has been a while since I posted when he had an RI. Four months in since we have had him and he is growing like a WEED! After several vet visits to cover everything that he went through where we purchased him, he is now cleared of his RI, parasites, and eating like a hog.

Next steps are just waiting on his upgraded tank. Unfortunately the plant we got him died... wasn't doing all that great when we got it, but then again it was the best of the litter and that isn't saying much. Anyways... pictures!

This was his first day with us... all scared, sick, and helpless.

And this is him today! Constantly alert, active, and a bit more friendly after all the medication.

Good that he made it through the RI and is better now!

Thank you! I'm pretty glad as well! We had to go a bit longer on the treatment... was worried for a bit because he just didn't seem to be getting better.

I’m glad to here that he’s doing well. He certainly is a little cutie.

Thank you, Jann! He is such an adorable little goofball, that's for sure!

Yeah, I found that out my second visit after talking with my vet. He was a huge help through the entire process. Doesn't stop me from worrying though! I notice one small thing and I'm almost half way ready to throw up a red flag... lol

Chameleons can drive us crazy and turn us into addicts! I really think we need a solution to this!

I went for a long while without anything... but this little guy being stuck with another male in a tank about a foot wide pulled at my heart strings and I just couldn't let him sit there.

We need a Cham rehab....

It's too late for you...the addiction has already started!

I... I just need one more... ONE more. That's all I need!... One more after the next one, that is.

I also apparently didn't upload the obligatory pajamas photo... How awful of me!
