Terramycin for baby chams

[HUBSonDUBS]

I use terramycin on my year and a half chameleon when one of his eyes are not opening. Now I have two month and 3 week old female nosy be's. Currently they are doing great but today I noticed that one of her eyes were not opening. Can I use terramycin on such little chams? How often can you apply this? Also, I put them outside today and they seemed to be more active, but one is very dark most of the time compared to the other one who is much lighter. I was thinking maybe get some eye wash? I will post pictures later today.

Why are you using meds for your adult? Has he been properly diagnosed by a vet? The baby is much too young for this and they sleep during the day sometimes. Did you buy a 3 week old chameleon or hatch it out yourself?
If you purchased it at that age,thats too young in my opinion. Bottom line is go to a herp vet if you are having problems. Don't guess and try to medicate yourself.

Every time I go to the vet I have to tell him whats wrong, but then again I been doing this for awhile.

I bought the cham's at the Daytona Reptile show. I get my medication at farm and feed stores. In my opinion I do not think that any vet's in Gainesville, Florida actually know how to deal with exotic species. Last time I visited the vet he gave my female a vit-A shot without my permission and it died 4 days later. I prefer to do research and share knowledge so if your post consist of saying see a vet dont bother posting. Thank you.
