My cham died last night. Im sad but at the same time happy for him because he don't need to struggle anymore. The rigor mortis has set in so he's really stiff. but he still has amazing colors. Im just curios how he can be dead but still has he's color. Does it take long time before they loose...
Hi!
I've had my chameleon for over 7 years, the last 6 months he just got worse and worse. Even if he got worse he had a good appetite and drank a lot. Yesterday he got really bad and now he's almost dead. How do I know for sure that he's dead, so i don't bury him alive?
when i hold him he...
I just bought a Hibiscus plant. Im going to change the soil to eco soil and wash the plant a couple of times. Does that take away the chemicals or do I need to do something else before my cham can eat the Hibiscus. How do you get rid of chemicals from new bought plants?
I use Calcium with D3 in it two days in a row and then i only use Multi Vitamin TerraVit 1 day and then repeat. I give him food 4-5 days a week. 2 grasshoppers or 2-3 crickets. It depends what the have in the pet store. There was a time i was away and could only feed him 2-3 times a week. Then i...
Thank you for all the nice words, I really appriciate it. Its my first chameleon and I have had such a nice time with him. He brought a lot of hapiness and laughter these 6-7 years. They are amazing animals.
I haven't done any dramatically changes. I dust the grasshoppers/crickets just as usual.
Yes the vet knows it's a small chameleon. that's just the normal price to pay in sweden for treating lizards.
I will do as jajeanpierre said. i will make it as comfortable as possible for him.
I don't have the money to pay for x-ray or vet visit. A vet visit in Sweden with x ray cost around 200-250 dollars. I called them now to see what it would cost to put him down and the said 350 dollars on the weekends and 150 dollars during week days. The strange thing is that he still eats and...
I just posted a thread today about my 6 year old cham. I thought he just was old and they get weak an fell of the branches. like we humans get weak and need support. But I read a bit about MBD and he's grabbing his own legs all the time and he has no koordination (motor skills) at all. he can...
Okej, thank you very much. I will contact a vet. I live in sweden and its really expensive to visit the vet here. I also got to drive a long way for a vet that knows how to treat a chameleon. They are not so usual here. Thanks for all the help.
Hi. My Yemen kameleon is 6 years old now. He have started to fall about 1-2 times a day. sometimes he just lays down on his side and do not move until i pick him up. He still drinks water as usual and eats as usual. IS he just getting old an about to die? What should i do?
