Here is some recommended information to include when asking for help in the health clinic forum. By providing this information, you will receive more accurate and beneficial responses. It might not be necessary to answer all these questions, but the more you provide the better. Please remember that even the most knowledgeable person can only guess at what your problem may be. Only an experienced reptile veterinarian who can directly examine your animal can give a true diagnosis of your chameleon's health.
Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - CB Senegal chameleon, male, unknown but above 1 year and 3 months, had him since Christmas.
Handling - Around every 2 days, he enjoys people and never gets mad.
Feeding - What are you feeding your cham? I feed him crickets and brown moths, he doesn't like any type of worms so I turn waxworms into moths for treats which he loves. I feed 2-4 crickets a day when I get home from school, I gutload them with freshfruits and veggies (not lettuce since I heard it had low value), Fluker's high calcium cricket diet, and Fluker's calcium fortified cricket quencher.
Supplements - sticky tongue farms miner-all O everday, Fluker's caclium phosphorous free with D3 twice a month, don't have packaging for multivitam, but twice a month.
Watering - I use a hand pumped mister from exo-terra, was going to buy a mjst king soon, mist 3 times a day for around 3-4 minutes.
Fecal Description - White urine with brown, mushy and recently half of his food is easily seen. No fecal tests yet.
History- ignorantly bought from a local store who I didn't realize hadn't had a UVB in him for god knows how long. He had a 2 foot fall a few months after I got him and has 4 small bumps on his side, one on each rib in a row.
Cage Info:
Cage Type - Full screen, handmade about 2x2x4.
Lighting - Reptisun 5.0, just replaced the old one a week ago, and a 70 watt basking heat lamp.
Temperature- basking at 85 ish, lower around 70. I had a cheap thing from the petstore to measure but it doesn't give as accurate temps as I'd like. Buying a digital one.
Humidity - Unknown at this second do to as I just said a crappy measuring thing, buying digital, but it usually stays in the 50-60 range. I have real plants and am thinking of putting a shower curtain on some sides.
Plants - Two Lowes-bought palms I was told were safe, mom threw tags away, correct me if I'm wrong about them being safe.
Placement - My bedroom, on my desk which is 3 feet off the ground, not near any fans but a vent is around 5 feet
Location- Virginia.
Current Problem - His last fecal looks undigested and he has something hanging from his butt. I'll get pics if possible, it's white, so I assume a sperm plyg, tried a shower. Will try again, not going to pull on it for fear of hurting my baby.
