I made a new post because I think he's getting worse. He's asleep in a vine near the bottom of his cage tonight and in the 2nd picture it may appear he has some poop stuck in his vent? I dunno if that's cause for alarm or not? I didn't see it before because he was always sitting.

Not sure. I've misted the screen nearest him so the droplets stay on the screen and then tried to leave him alone.
 
Hard to be sure but the "poop" in his vent might be a sperm plug.

Is he wheezing or making popping sounds at all? Sitting with his mouth open?
He might be getting a draft from the air conditioning vent...I would try moving the cage away from it.

He looks good and healthy to me.
 
If you don't know what it is or what to do then get a Vet is usually the best option. How long since problem started? and how's his eating?

Nope he doesn't make a peep.

I was planning to move him here tomorrow afternoon.

I spent today setting up the Mist King and washing off the Hibiscus. Gonna try to get him a Pothos or 3 at HD tomorrow too for more seclusion. It's even near a window (closed) now too.
 
sorry to hear about your cham he looks alot like my boy blaze same coloring and white strip down the middle along with the hint of blue in the white. is he an ambilobe??? were did you get him from???
 
How are his temps? Was that feces stuck on his vent? When he did have a bm what was the constancy, was it hard looking or nice and moist.

I see you are setting up a large cage for him, what size is he in now?

Nice and moist.
He's in a tiny ass L: 18.00  W: 12.00  H: 20.00 cage.

Thought there's a 4' cage next to that one waiting to move him.
 
That is tiny for him. Glad you have the cage getting ready.
As you know its important for him to warm and cool for proper digestion. If he cant digest properly he wont be able to absorb nutrients. Even with great gut load and suppliment scheduale if they cant properly absorb nutrients its just as bad as not having them.
I'd get him in that cage with proper temps and if I didnt see a difference soon I would take him to the vet.

Just my opinion, hope he enjoys his new cage! Goodluck

Little guy hasn't figured out he can leave though 2 days he's gotten close. His tail was out this morning. On the good side he's drunk and he's eating today.

If he is drunk that could be a real problem, whatever you do do not let him get behind the wheel of the car!
On a more serious note, how is he doing? Has he improved? I hope so and hope he is enjoying his new cage:)
