Hello!

My Ambilobe Panther Chameleon is not doing so well. His rear left leg is not gripping very well. I will be filling out the info part right now. I don't know if it's due to wrong supplementation or lack of calcium. Please help and if there are any vets in Miami Florida. Please let me know.

I think you are overdosing vitamin D3 if its in both dusts you use 3 times a week. The proper supplement schedule is:

Daily: dust lightly with PLAIN calcium (NO added D3)
Twice a month: dust with calcium WITH D3) once
Twice a month: dust with a herp multivitamin

Overdosing vit D3 can result in symptoms similar to calcium deficiency or MBD.
