Good evening all my 4 month old panther chameleon Leo has recently started walking around is enclosure opening and shutting his mouth randomly.
I then took him out and I saw a bit of extra saliva towards the back of his mouth which made him blow a small little bubble.
No I know that him opening and closing his mouth maybe because he's hot but the extra saliva could be a respiratory infection any ideas if anyone has any information on this.
I'm based in the UK the ambient temperature is between 75 and 85 degrees the Baskin temperature is 85 +
He has a glass vivarium with a wire mesh roof he has an 80 watt bulb with UV built in and he has live plants and plenty of room in space
His diet is now locusts he was on crickets he gets sprayed three to four times a day and has recently started enjoying the mist there was also recently added dripper system
Today was the first day I found this they worried me a little bit
Any advice will be most grateful
