    How would I inject feeders? As in with a syringe? (If so where so I get one? Mine is needleless) And so far he's not eating. I'm really praying the silkworms get here tomorrow. Even if I put the medicine on the silkworms it'd be better so at least he's getting some actual food and not just...

    Thanks, guys! I'm rooting for him, too. Lord knows I've been watching like a mother hen. The credit card seems to be a good idea.. So far I've either been breaking a Qtip in half or using a toothpick vertically so it's not pointy.

    I never see him drink, but I mist heavily and then let him be. He's never shown signs of dehydration and his eyes are good. The doctor was joking at how strong of a grip he had and said so far his colors, eyes, everything else is fine except for the fact he's not eating and so he sleeps on and...

    Pilot: I'd love to try that it's just he hasn't been eating at all. I offered crickets to no avail. The medicine is a powder with the food that I have to mix with water. I'm expecting some silkworms so hopefully he'll want those, if not the vet said cut some up and put the medicine on it and...

    Thanks! So far my roommate is holding him while I'm trying to gfeed. Little bugger can clamp down pretty decent for being so tiny. And our outside temps are around 80 give or take a few degrees.

    Incase anyone is unfamiliar with what was my fun filled Labor Day weekend, https://www.chameleonforums.com/sad-cham-66521/index3.html. Bottom line is my baby veiled male wasn't eating for a week. Took him to the vet, he didn't test him because he is so little (the scale picked him upat...

    Update: Little guy is still sitting outside in his cage. He's still sleeping on and off during the days but we've gotten some of the medicine in him and the silk worms will hopefully be in by tomorrow morning. The vet suggested offering him cut up crickets or silkworms but he wasn't real keen...

    The doctor didn't test him so just in case. He figured something has to be wrong for him to not eat for a week so it's just precautionary and it's blended in with his supplement so it's not any kind of a pain or anything. So far he's climbing around in his cage.

    Okay guys, just got back from the vet. So pleased with them! (if anyone needs a vet in the panhandle area Safe Harbor Animal Hospital is FANTASTIC!) anyhow. Dr.Nat treated little guy for parasites and gave me some medicine mixed in with a supplement (I forget the name) that I have to force feed...

    It's going to be 67 tonight. I think I'm supposed to bring him inside when it's that chilly, no?

    Well the first day I had him he pooped (he was shipped with a few crickets) but hadn't eaten since then. It's possible he may have eaten 1 or 2 yesterday, but I lost a few crickets. Today I know for sure there are 6 in there since I moved him and there all accounted for unfortunately.

    Haha okay. there's 2 droppings in his indoor cage, would that work incase I don't see any?

    Okay. How cold is considered too cold? Right now there's no lights since he's on my porch (it's screened in and he's in a screen cage so nothing can get him.) We're high overcast right now thank to T.S. Lee so it's not getting any higher than 81 for today. But we're dropping tonight to low 70s...

    Okay thanks! The first couple days I had him he was so much more active and was doing so well except for the not eating. Right now he's outside and I plan on taking him to the vet first thing in the AM just in case. I counted how many crickets and there's very few places for them to hide so...

    That and Carol5208 (by the way, what's your name? you were so helpful last night!) I ordered 50 of the small silkworms incase that would spike his interest. From what I'm reading, though, I'm leaning towards possible parasites. If anyone has dealt with them before: how long will it take for...

    That and I don't have a basking light because I was told he's too little from various people on here. His two UVB bulbs keep his upper tank in the low to mid 80's so if it matters at all. Right now its 81 outside.

    The tank I got came with an Exo terra hood and 2 UVB CFL bulbs one at either end. His entire tank is in light. But I've been looking around town for a tube light and haven't found much so I'm waiting on the mail.

    I have an Exo Terra hood and they're exo terra uvb lights (CFL.) I ordered a tube light this morning but those lights have been keeping his temperatures at normal levels. I've been tryingto get him outside but unfortunately I'm one of the lucky ones who have been putting up with tropical storm...

    I bought it from Underground Reptiles in Deerfield Beach, FL. They're a local reptile store where I've gotten different pets from before. Yes, I have all the lighting and his lights are fine. There was poop in his cage although none of the crickets had been missing up until yesterday when I...

    So I posted earlier this week about my 2 mo old veiled male not eating and was told not to worry. Well, at 4 pm he was already asleep and has been napping which has me scared. I rushed and threw together the new screen tank I ordered and have some plants in there and took him outside in hopes...
