Ask your vet about treating with allopurinol. I'm actually dealing with the same thing with my chameleon right now and that is what she prescribed. Also, she wants me to switch to mealworms temporarily, because they're low in purines, which are a group of amino acids that get broken down to uric...
I haven't posted here in quite some time, but I want to share some pics of my new cage build. I did some research here on the forums to get some ideas. It's a regular 2'x2'x4' to replace an older larger cage that has seen better days. I like to place the cage on top of a planter so that it's an...
I noticed that you can't upload images at full resolution using the upload link because it says they're too big. In this case is it better to email them?
You should be able to save him. As others have said, you should replace the dead plants and get a lot more plants in there. Pothos are always a good option as they are easy to keep alive and can fill up the cage fairly quickly. Also for supplementation, I believe that Repashy calcium plus is a...

I had a panther/oustalet hybrid a few years ago and he was awesome! Unfornately he got an infection of some sort and passed away before he reached adulthood. I'm still a bit heartbroken about that loss! :(
It's hard to know for sure, but I do not believe there was anything physically wrong with him. Often hybrids can be stronger than the two species that they are a hybrid of. In the case of Ozzy, I think he just had a bad case of parasites that he couldn't beat. It was also my fault for not...
I have this problem all the time. I've sent some off to a supplier once, and I've taken them to a couple of local pet stores. Problem is that now those stores have their own colonies so they don't need them the next time around. You can slow them down by keeping their temps a bit lower or not...
