Current Problem - i heard her weez after eating a mealworm. am i feeding her to much? she only ate the mealworm today. im thinking it wasnt even a weez but her haveing trubble stuffing all that food in her. i dont know. she hasnt shed yet eaither but i think it looks like she will soon. her color is paler.

heres some pics-
 
Did the vet say she had a Uri? Based on the pics provided I'd say she looks pretty healthy looking from all appearances. Eyes look pretty full not sunken. Her limbs look nice and straight. Hard to tell if she's about to shed or if the flash just washd out her colors a little. Nice little gal for a petsmart cham.
 
No the vet said she looked gr8. however she wuddnt weez for him and i asked for meds anyway. i did this beacuse i had heard her weezing ten mins or so when i first bough her. sence iv been treating her shes gotten fatter better colored and better looking and genral. heres a than and now. pics (that was when i first bought her and above is just an hour ago).
 
She looks much healthier now in the above photos, good job:)
Since you don't have drainage set up yet you can give her a nice 15 min to 1/2 hr shower once a week ( my chams love a long warm shower :p ) set a plant in the shower and bounce the water off the wall indirectly on 1/2 the plant so she can move in and out of the water :)
