Majic is a two month old baby veiled chameleon that was being kept at a local pet store. His encloser was entirely glass, and not even a foot in either length or height. He was fed poorly, not nearly enough for a growing baby. Since his enclosure was so small, Majic was constantly over heated and most of the skin on his forearms had been scorched off from coming to close to the heat lamp. Overheated, sick, malnourished, and injured, this was the way I found him. I was only looking around for some replacement stuff when I stumbled upon the live reptiles, and couldn't help but look at them. As soon as I saw Majic curled up in the corner of his enclosure, I fell in love with the little guy and hollered for a manager to come over there immediantly. I took him right out of there and went straight home. There, I provided him with a cool shower while i setup his new home. Once he had cooled down, I hand fed him and used a dropper to give him water. After this, I fetched some medication to treat his burns, and gave him raw vitamins.
He slept through the night, and I continued to hand feed and hydrate him for about a week.
