Hello all,
About a 2 months ago I adopted a veiled Cham that needed rehoming.
he started shedding about 2 weeks ago now but it was not a full shed and there is still dead left on his body.
When I collected him the previous told me he was aggressive (to be expected) but then sprayed him directly with a jet of water and said quote “I do this to get him out as it’s calms him down”. I was speechless.
i am worried this may have affected him in some way as his scales are ‘clumpy’ around the are that didn’t shed.
I have attached photos of him
husbandry(UK)
He is in a wooden vivexotic vivarium, I have added fans to aid in ventilation.
Basking spot is 90 with lows of 70.
I mist when the lights go out and just before they come on. Humidity is always at 60-70 before the lights come on but I let it dry out through the day.
He has a dripper on all day
Poop all normal to say the least, although just recently had a poo with a white urate and then long orange poop (photo graphed)
he eats very well. Calcium on every feed and has had reptivite 4 times since I have had him.
I’m stressing. Some profession advice would be really helpful.
