hi all, I got a veiled chameleon yesterday and he is 9 weeks old. when I went to the shop to get him the lady actually pulled a piece of plastic wire out of his mouth, the lady said that it happens all the time and he will be fine now. after arriving back home, I got him out and he is a very lively little chameleon and loves to be held. today he seemed tired so I fogged his cage up and sprayed the leaves so he had plenty to drink and he had a waxworm. I noticed around 30 minutes ago he had something coming out of his bum which was not regular chameleon poop, it was a piece of plasic wire, the same thing as what the woman pulled out of his mouth yesterday. I got my stepdad to help me pull it out of his bum because he looked like he was in pain. now hes sleeping, im assuming hes just tired as I bet pushing it out really tired him out.
another thing I want to mention is that 3 weeks ago I got a veiled chameleon (Pascal) from the same place, last sunday he passed away. im terrified the same thing will hapeen to the one I got yesterday, I assume Pascal died because he had this plastic wire in his stomach. just wondering if this has happened to anyone else?
thanks x
