weird posture

darn, ive been following this thread for a while now.

and im really sorry to hear that he died. he was a cute little guy too.

i had my first veiled cham die about 2 weeks after i got him :[

he ate some of the perlite in the potting soil that was used in the plants.

i felt so horrible, he was (lack of a better word) pooping, out his own blood and what looked like some sort of guts, i took him to the vet immediatley and they said that it was perlite.. since it absorbs water, it sucked out all of the juiced in his body.. and.. well yea.

i know the feeling. its horrible

sorry
 
I just made it back to this thread. Sorry to hear about your loss. If you think that you will try again, see if you can find a panther that is at least 3 months old. Something in the SVL over 3" will have much less of a chance to get in trouble. What part of the world are you located?
 
Thanks for the advice. (jeez, that perlite experience sounds horrible)

I am living in Arizona right now. Probably be moving to Idaho in 6 months
 
also, if anyone has these symptoms, the way he was sitting (almost vertically) was because there was fluid in his lungs and he could breathe much better that way.
