Hi, my Cham has started to get lazy since the colder weather set in and has become overweight.
His casque and cheeks are bulging out now more then they were in the summer and he was coming out most days for excercise but now it gets dark at 4.30, he settles for bed and I get home at 4, so he is not really interested in coming out.
I'm now feeding him every other day but only give him 2 prey items each feeding where he was having 6 every other day when he became one in January.
Is this ok tomonly feed him this much and how can I get him to excercise more, I'm worried about his health and he only poops about once a week.
Thanks guys
