Hello, I have a concern about my 8~9 month old female Vieled chameleon. She started having this little bump around a few days ago and after doing my research signs point to it being an edema. After looking at what causes edema, there isn’t really much that I do for her that could cause it. She gets her dusted crickets/worms with calcium(and other vitamins) about once a week/2 weeks, I have a mister going in the daytime alone with manually spraying the leaves (I see her drink everyday) so no signs of dehydration. She eats everyday (5-8 crickets, one superworm every other day). She has plenty of leaves and branches and a tall mesh enclosure. She is very active (loves coming out of the cage and being handled. There is a tall bucket of dirt at the bottom of the enclosure in case she is/becomes gravid. I just am worried that this is something serious, let me know if you see something unordinary in the pictures. This is the first time I have thought she was sick or injured. (Ps, bump looks small cause of the angle, but sometimes appears much larger) Also to mention, She has a UVB and heat lamp on her for 10-12 hours a day + her tongue and mouth area are completely normal.
