so i didn’t have one but i do now. he/she has been digging in the dirt a little bit but not as much as i expected if dexter were a girl. maybe she’s having trouble since her back legs are still slightly paralyzed? it’s just really difficult to know what to do when i can’t positively identify...

I cannot tell at all

So we noticed yesterday (3/5/20) that he/she is slowly starting to move his back legs. Not much at all but i’m super excited that he’s making progress! He can still grab onto things, but he can’t hold anything weighted. Like he’ll hold my finger when i handle him but he still can’t use them to...

No it does not have D3

So I actually have the Fluker’s Liquid Calcoum drops that go in his water. I put those in his spray bottle but since he can’t go drink off the leaves right now, i’ll pull some water mixed with the calcium in a syringe and he’ll drink a little from that. About a syringe a day, sometimes more. He...

His cage is 16 x 16 x 30 He hasn’t acted interested in food the past couple days but there’s a chance he might be eating while i’m gone at work. It’s hard to tell. i give him mealworms occasionally to mix it up but i will definitely invest in some other food options for him. His vet said he...

I posted another picture of him from this morning. He was slightly pissed because i had just given him his calcium. If needed I can post some more pictures in different angles if that would help.

He’s out of his cage for maybe a couple minutes at most. I only kept him out last night to take some pictures for this forum. But my room is upstairs in our house so it stays pretty warm in here. I’d say at least 68° - 70° but some days it feels like it’s almost 80°.

My only problem is the area i’m in, we don’t have many exotic vets. Initially, Dexter couldn’t even hold his head up but since giving him calcium daily and changing his lighting he’s perked up quite a bit. I’m just bothered by the paralysis in his back legs. And i’ve been so back and forth on...

I answered the questions below! and no the vet offered to do x-rays and take blood but I just can’t afford to dish out that amount of money right now. He mentioned he could be in kidney failure but we wouldn’t know until he did bloodwork and told me it would be pretty expensive since it’s so...

Your Chameleon - Veiled Chameleon, according to vet, male, and about 5/6 months old. I’ve had him for about 4 months now Handling - At this point i have to handle him daily. Before it was rare, maybe once a week or so. Feeding - Gut loaded crickets. I put one in his cage a day since he’s slowed...

I recently found out, Dexter, my veiled chameleon has MBD. i trusted my local pet store‘s advice instead of fully reading up/consulting a veterinarian and discovered he was lacking proper lighting and calcium in his diet. I’ve obviously corrected all faults and have been extremely diligent about...
