He’s in his cage, right? You’re not holding or handling him…right?

There are some, but they can’t treat online.

It’s worth it just to establish a relationship with your vet. And it’ll take a load off your mind. Wellness checks, for minor issues are just part of the hobby. When you have years in, you’ll be more confident about your own judgements.

Ok. So a pothos leaf won’t cause his eyes to close, and won’t hurt him. But book a vet appointment tomorrow, and I’m the meantime, make sure he’s hydrated, and don’t mess with him.

This is a beardie?

Pothos have higher levels of oxalates, but they are far from toxic in small quantities. Lots of people have had their veiled’s eat their entire pothos.

He’ll be fine.

Sorry, but not really. Take a pic from directly behind him, and capture the rear view of the back foot.

Still wrong angle.

Your looking at the wrong angle. Get a pic of the back feet FROM BEHIND.

Males will have these spurs on hind feet.

I could only guess. A check up here runs anywhere between $70 and $110. Eye flushing would likely be included in that. A fecal would add ~$50. That’s in Canada.

Agree with Brad, here. Get a fecal done. Have you offered any unusual food items such as horns lately? Changes in supplements?

I agree that if it isn’t already resolved, a vet visit will likely be the less stressful solution. A vet will be able to flush the eyes out, and diagnose any potential issue. If you keep messing with it, it’ll be more stressful.

Why no orange heads?

Fair enough. But I swear those surinams move. Have you tried some super fast moving feeders, or flyers, or anything green? I just see some focused and energetic behaviour from my chams when I use one of the above, compared to the almost lazy feeding behavior they display for slower moving...

So, put a couple dubia in a feeder cup, and they go motionless pretty quick. Surinams behave like they’re on crack. They move fast and erratically in search of somewhere to burrow.
