you and me both Max!!! (lets start a list for Olimpia.. :) ) just kidding Olimpia,,,, (well, not really!!!!) :D
 
Ha! One thing at a time guys! If she does well I'm going to get her a few friends throuought this year if possible and see what happens.
 
This is the most beautiful chameleon I have ever seen. WOWWW!!
I'm sorry to hear about your loss with your chameleon. Like you said, there was nothing you could have done. Things happen for a reason. Maybe you were meant to be with this queen :) Good luck with everything and hope it all goes well.
 
Sounds like a good first week,she is looking fantastic!!! She is in good (very good ) hands and I know you will do everything you can to help her thrive!!! I know from my own experience they are a challenging species to keep but you will do well with her!!! :) Have you had a fecal etc yet? Please keep the pictures comming. I hope to try again with them at some point in the future. They are so MAJESTIC and also so very different then many other species of chems. We all will be watching with positive anticipation in here progress.

Thank you! They are definitely different, but the other melleri owners that I've been harrassing for information have been a tremendous help in calming my fears and answering questions. No, no fecal yet. We have her on some meds already so we won't treat her for anything else for the time being as to not overwhelm her. But that will be next on the list.

Well, I may be able to secure another Meller's from another forum member in the coming weeks, but we don't know if it's a male or another female. But we'll find out, I guess!

Ha, Ok! I have been trying to get photos of me administering meds to give people a guide if they need to do it themselves, but I've been home alone a lot. So I may have to rig a camera and film it instead lol.

But she's doing well!

Here's a very lady-like photo of her from a few days ago:

Thanks Jann and PenelopeLove! She's doing really well, she's eating like a horse and gaining more confidence to explore every day. Here are some photos I just took after giving her some of her meds.

Is she all done with the baytril? Did that clear up the respiratory infection? :) she is wonderful.

Almost, she has one more dose left. And not yet, although chameleons are very slow to heal so we may see an improvement in the next week or two. And if not we'll go from there. But she's eating, drinking, and active so this is great so far. There seems to be a real danger with using antibiotics on melleri, so it's a good sign that she's still eating.

Thank you!

we never discussed a fecal. you should have given me one while we were there today and i could have tested it for you.

and y’all might think Olimpia is a real sweetheart and all, but today i watched her eat frogs and alligators!! herp hater!! :D
 
I missed this thread somehow.....she is quite a lovely lady! This was the kind f chameleon that inspired me to get into the hobby, so maybe one day....one can hope right :)
