My Chameleon, Krank, has been showing some eye problems. A while ago about 2 months,there was a hurricane and we had a manitory evac. When we were there for a couple of days i saw that his right eye was closed and the other was open. I thought it was from dehydration so I misted him and he opened his eye for a while. Then a couple weeks ago both his eyes were closed and he would sleep alot and he would not eat. Every now and then he would eat about 8-10 crickets then now he would not move at all. His eyes do look a bit sunken even thought I do mist 4 times a day. I took him to the vet and he gave me something for his eye. Its been a week and nothing changed and he still has not ate anything. Then the vet gave us some calcium to put on his mouth and he ate some but not alot. Hes really small and skinny and still sleeps in one spot and keeps both eyes closed now.
If anyone can help leave a comment.
