Humidity - around 30-60%.
Plants - Live certified plants.
Placement - in my bedroom on a table.
Location - Chicago, IL
Current Problem - He has been getting progressively worse I have tried everything the vet told me to use GenTeal Nightime Ointment to aid in his eye problem along with Gentamicin Sulfate 0.3% Sterile drops in his eyes and to coat his food which is SuperWorms only that is all he will eat with Reptivite but it does not matter since he does not open his eyes and when I get him to do so I don't think he can see so for the last week I stopped using the Genteal which is like a petroleum product and only use the drops he has not eaten for a good 10 days unless he has been eating without my knowledge I keep supers in two dishes in the cage and they disappear but I think that they are just getting out of the dishes. His head is sinking in that is the back where the two bumps used to be his upper lips are further in than his lower and his eyes stay shut and when I rub them he likes it so they are irritating him along with his nasal passage he likes to have itched on top and side of his nose. It seems every time I take my reptiles to the vet it goes nowhere so I am hoping someone in the forum may of had a similar issue with there cham and can help in diagnosing this very unusual problem.
