Health problem - please help

[Rodderz]

I have a sick panther chameleon, I have posted about the problem in the health section but have not yet received much in the way of responses. If any chameleon health experts are around on the forums can you please help me.

I have written about the problem here:

Thanks in advance

I don't think you are being ignored, I think it is that no one has the answer for you, myself included. I would have said it was normal coloring with just an odd patch, but I am not certain. I have seen fungus patches on here, but that looks like healthy scales. I hope you get to the bottom of it! Has he eaten anything else.?

Thank you for replying

Oh I didnt think I was being ignored. As you suggest I thought that no one had any useful information for me to help with diagnosis.

I posted here to help increase the chances of someone who might be able to help stumbling across my thread.

He has actually eaten a couple of insects today. He has had a morio and a dubia. Im checking temps throughout the day and will check the min temp tonight as I think it could be some kind of infection resulting from the dramatic drop in temp experienced where I live.

I know you never said you were being ignored, that is just what I was thinking! I commented on your other thread and I remember a chameleon with a fungual infection that was yellow(not as bright as that) and it was effecting the spikes also. I cannot say for sure that is what it is. I don't want to you alarm you. I would say it is a possibility though. Search the the threads and see if you can find the one I am talking about. Look under health clinic. Hopefully one of our vets can give you the liklihood of what is going on. He looks like a beautiful chameleon!
