I can't wait to post exciting and fun things like pictures on here and not all these posts about my poor chameleon's fecal test results.
I just got a call from the vet saying that his last fecal came back positive for ascaridia galli, which is a roundworm they said. He has an appointment to get meds for it on Thursday. But I was just wondering if anyone has heard of this before? I googled it and searched on this site and couldn't find much pertaining to chameleons.
I'm starting to doubt the lab they send the fecals off to now. He had a positive one for coccidia there, took him to Dr. Alfonso and he had a clean fecal, got another one done locally and it was positive for coccidia, got treatment for that, sent out this most recent one to check on the coccidia and they report back with this roundworm one (but didn't mention coccidia, fingers crossed that means it was clean for that again!). I have no idea what to think. This little guy is stressing me out!
