im sittling here waiting till he poops or i find the poop so i can drop it to my vet, leanthy process ive found poop usually old cause he does it on the plants and hes only 4 months old so still small. but if he did have parisites what would be the symptoms present? doc could find no reasons for him closing his eyes from time to time, of course he was purky over alert there, terrified im starting to think, he said not to worry to much unless he does it alot becaus lungs sounded good no crust on nose or eye mouth was fine, not dehydrated nice green color and he never does it more then a minute eyes look good too, so i paid for the test and im waiting but im just wanding what parisites do look like let me add home hes active aswell eats alot poops its my fault i cant find it bad eyes, ive seen him drink some lately i mist 2 times a day and it rains in his cage about 3 mins everyday. even tho he hates h2o, before the vet tri i found fresh poo and forgot it at home but it was white and brown nothing undigested. vet said dot worry bring feces but i love him so i worry.
oh temp is 80 to 84 in basking spot was only 75 after vet trip upped it to 80s should i go up a little more?, lights on timer 5.0 uvb 75 watt house bulb. humidity is usually around 40 to 50 after mistin around 75% mesh cage 3x2 1/2x 3 1/2
sorry got carried away. just thinking ahead oh dusting was off the first month did dust but with d3 everyday been fixed for a month with vites and d3 2 times a moth everyday with calcium w/o d3 and gut oad wih bug burger and butternut squash. yesterday startted giving him phoenix worms he loves them. maybe im worried for nothing he said i was waldos done the eye closing or one eye closed for a few secconds since i got him. am i a dummy is it his blinking, maybe dry eyes?
 
Good Cham owners worry and don't take everything for granted.:D

You will find a poo and then have the test and life will be good :)
 
on the same note should i raise the basking temp maybe hang a towel or two never gets below 70, should i go up to a 100 watt? i just seen someone say its normal to see them nap up to 10 mins while responding to someone elses post, so that makes me relax a little lol. but on temps should i go up a few more degrees?
oh its a veiled cham.

Chameleons shouldn't nap any amount of time during the day. If a chameleon its sleeping during the day its usually due to a husbandry or health issue.
 
so what do u think im doin wrong

ok so suggestions. hes healthy other then closing his eyes sometimes.
 
guys he has runny poop today, slightly undigested material is that the worms? maybe from food switching? or is that sommore or whatever my issue is?
cant take him back to the vet till i get a decent stool sample vet said unless he was really sick he didnt wanna take blood hes little not alot to spare.
