Cham ate piece of a paper towel

[samanthanortonn]

I have a 4 month old veiled female cham that just ate a piece of paper towel.. there was a cricket at the bottom and when she went to eat it the paper towel that I line the bottom of her cage with got stuck too. I tried to pull it out of her mouth but it broke off and she ate a piece of it.. has this happened to anyone else? Should I take her to a vet?

Just keep and eye on her for a few days. It'll most likely pass but sure she's eating and so forth and check to see if she's pooping.

And remove the paper towels and get a drip pan

I have a dripper that drips onto leaves on her pathos plant but I still mist her daily

And that is good... But you do not want to keep the paper towels in the bottom. You need a drip pan. You can buy one made for the enclosure from DragonStrand or get a plastic washing machine tray. I prefer the DS ones because it raises the enclosure so it can drip down out of it.

Cham will be fine
