I suppose the list could be long, I am only looking for high liklehood, heavy hitters.
If I have a cold, could I give it to my cham? Could my cham get sick from other sick animals (non-reptile, non-amphibian), like a dog or a cat?
What about parasites?
If my cham had some illness or parisite now (no reason to suspect at this point), how would I clean the cage for his recovery, or would I need to?
There is a lot of info about MBD and other maladies, but I was wondering mainly about viruses, and parisites that could be transfered to or from my cham.
What about salmonilla?
I saw a photo slideshow and there is a guy actually kissing his cham. Its a tremendously cute picture, but isnt that playing Russian Salmonilla with a loaded cham?!?
What, really, are the salmonilla risks, and how (besides the obveyous(handwashing)) are they controlled?
I have a vet appointment set up for my little fellow in a couple weeks, but I wondered about contagions. I have a six month old CB Ambilobe Panther. He looks great, but is still pretty shy. He has been home for only about 30 hours.
