Please give advice!?!
Our chameleon got a small burn on his head that has now become larger, even after we made sure he could not reach the top of the enclosure. We have been reading up as much as we can and doing our best, but he wont open his eyes today to eat or drink. We now know we were not prepared to take care of a chameleon, but it's too late for that. So we are doing our best to help him get better. We know we need to take our chameleon to the vet, but we are looking for advice on what we can do until he goes in. We have had Sonic for about 2 months and he has been very happy and healthy for a large majority of this time. We have been using the reptoCal calcium powder by tetra fauna once a week on meal worms that we feed him once a day and we feed his crickets on the weekends. We feed the crickets an oatmeal. Since his eyes has closed we bought the zoo med eye drops which we applied two drops per eye today. We use a spray bottle the spray down his enclosure twice a day and I have just installed a dripper all with treated water. We think he is less than a year old and honestly do not know the sex. We use a small glass terrarium with screen lid and a UVA heat lamp and a UVB bulb. His poop has not really changed in consistency since we got him but lately it has been a little less frequent. He is a veiled chameleon, his heat is kept at 85 and humidity at 80 and he is kept in our bedroom
