@Andee moe is only about 2. He's my second cham and also second rescue from petco. He had a respiratory infection when I got him and developed gout shortly after. When I originally posted his diagnosis you commented and gave me recipes that you used for your service dog if I'm not mistaken...
I'm not completely sure on that. If I remember correctly, I think I've seen a few people who don't use uvb bulbs when they take their cham out that much but I'm not sure about the d3 supplement. That'd be a good question to ask in a new thread to get some good answers.

Unfortunately, yes. Get him to the vet asap to get that prescription. Moe was a bit lethargic because I think he was in pain. Yours probably is too, the people I know that have gout said it is extremely painful. Try to encourage him to drink more to flush it out a bit. The meds should really...

please fill this form out and post it in a reply on this thread.
did they not give you any meds to take home for the RI?
My veiled doesn't like them either. He used to eat them every now and st August I went to a reptile convention and bought 5 cups of them for $5 each from rainbow mealworms and my Cham didn't touch them. Silkworms used to be his favorite but the last time I ordered them he didn't touch those either.

I've been meaning to do this, seems like a great alternative to buying a mist king.
