Chameleon legs looking weird

[Lindsayd42]

I took him out of his cage the other day and noticed his front right leg looked weird and his back left leg, he is around 7 months old, kept in an exo terra glass enclosure with the vents in the side and top, as I cannot keep a completely screened one humid enough where I live, he eats either 8 crickets or 4 superworms, I dust them 2 times a week, he has a uvb and heat bulb, I took him to the place I got him from and they said it looked like he bumped his leg, but it doesn’t seem to be getting better, any ideas?

Fill out the help form.

Right off the bat I can tell you it appears to be MBD (metabolic Bone disease). You need to correct your supplementation.

See here for supplementation. https://www.chameleonforums.com/care/caresheets/veiled/

It is vital to get plain calcium daily, calcium with D3 twice per month and a multivitamin twice per month.
