[arnau666]

[arnau666]

his right eye is a little sunken too ,and he sratches it with his leg ! he finished shedding and there is no skin left on his eye !!!
WHAT IS HAPPENING ?!?!?

 

[ZuggieTheCham]

Hey sorry im working so if i dont reply im just a little busy ill reply wen i got a min,
im no expert ill just try help as much as i can !
Impaction is were ur cham eats somthing they cannon digest like say soil if he is eating that without u knowing u dont know how much he has ate! He could have eaten alot of soil! If he has then u will need to get him to a vet as he wont b able to eat if he is impacted, havnt u got any large rocks to cover your soil????

 

[arnau666]

yes i have rocks , and i check him every 15 min just to be sure ! i saw him once removing a rock and trying to eat dirt !!!
his eye was fine yesterday,,,,, and how its sunken ! im afraid he will die...
i will try to get him to a vet but....here vets dont know anything about reptiles ...so my only hope is this forum !
this is so wrong ... every detail about his cage- temp,humidity,food ,suplements etc are the way they should be !!!

 

[ZuggieTheCham]

When did u last see a fresh poop??? I think when they are impacted to a point they cant poop, have u had a poop today?

 

[arnau666]

yes he pooped today , he pooped normal color - dark brownish -blach but he pooped in smaller quantity since he didnt eat

 

[ZuggieTheCham]

See it may not be impaction then, see im not by any means an expert I'm just trying to help! Im not entirely sure that he could be impacted! My Cham likes to chew on rocks sometimes when he has a bit of feeder stuck, i reckon if i didn't have the rocks there he would b eating soil deffo! He's a little bugger like that! Try spray his eye with warm water a couple of times so he can swoosh it out, i do this with my Cham every now and then to let him clean his eyes he seems to enjoy it witch is abit weird!! Lol so how much has he eaten then the past couple of days?? My cham has been thru a faze were he didnt eat for a couple of days didnt seem interested, i just left him too it left them in there if hes hungry he will eat! And after a couple of days he was back to normal eating like a pig, when did he take his last bits of shed off?

 

[arnau666]

he finished sheding yesterday!last time he ate was 2days ago when he ate 2 molted dubias!he had before bits of orange in his urates!and now its just a tiny bit so i doubt its very dehidrated,still the sunken eye is there!could he have a sunken eye becose he has something bothering him like a left skin inside the eye?still i dont see any shed left there,but he scratches his eye

 

[ZuggieTheCham]

Hmm maybe his eye is really bothering him causeing him not to eat? Try the warm misting i mean warm not tepid nice and warm but not too hot my cham loves his warm misting and gives him chance to rinse his eyes just while you are spraying him when he open his eye make sure a little spray goes in there let him swoosh it around and he should be able to get whatever is in there out?! It could very well b left over skin

 

[arnau666]

well i think he is stressed too,very angry and hisses at me when i mist him !
i will try to get him a shower

 

[ZuggieTheCham]

Let me know how he does

 

[Sherlinwed]

My cham hates roaches. I have orange heads and I tried to force feed him by starving him to eat them. Almost 1 week and nothing and then I gave him crickets and poof he snapped them up immediately. I guess he really hates them to starve himself..haa

 

[arnau666]

new thing going on .... he just goes at the bottom of the cage and walk on the screen !! WTH is wrong with him ?

 

[ZuggieTheCham]

Whats on the bottom of ur cage? Have u got pics?

 

[Elizadolots]

Could it be that the cage is a bit warm? You say that the basking temperature is 90 degrees and it's 80 at the bottom of the cage. Try bumping the backing temperature back to 85 and see if you can get the bottom closer to 70.

 

[arnau666]

yes,temps were to high , i change the bulb. i so hate analogue termometer donno why i got it in the 1st place , but my digitals will arrive in 3-4 days
he is sleeping now , wanted to eat a dubia but the bug grabbed a leaf and he dropped it and he didnt try to get another one ! i guess its a good sing at least he wanted to eat some !

 

[ZuggieTheCham]

How is he doing today??
