chameleon wont eat

[kmesh]

We have a female veiled chameleon who after we fed her grasshoppers seemed to get sick. We realize now not to feed her grasshoppers and wont be again. That being said, that was over a month ago and she still wont eat any live food. We are feeding her by syringe Flukers Repta-Boost, but its getting very tedious. Any advised or other food options would be appreciated we are new to chameleons. She has shed once . Crickets can crawl on her and she shows no interesrt verging on fear. Mealworms go uneaten too.

I would suspect what is going on has nothing to do with the grasshoppers you fed her a month ago.

She sounds very sick. Have you taken her to a vet?

We live in a rural area no vets are close by. Trying to avoid if at all possible. Thought maybe the grasshoppers bite her mouth and scared her but nothing that we can see. She is thriving just refuses to eat unless we feed her the formula.
