I'm
I'm in Lincoln, I've found a vet now and he has been treated. Swelling doesn't seem to be going down though, does that mean he needs more antibiotics?
Thank you!
Yeah it was on his back when I walked into the room and i picked it off him and removed it then the next morning the lump appeared. I have just got back from the vets (managed to find one thst specialises in exotics after many phone calls), she put a needle into the lump and looked...
My Yemen chameleon was bite by a locust 2 days ago and a small semi hard lump has appeared where he was biten. The lump doesn't appear painful at all, even when pressed, he's still eating and drinking, he's active and alert and displaying all his usual happy colours so is fine in himself. I'm...
I will be upgrading his cage as soon as I am convinced he can climb safely. I think it is just a case of him wanting to come and be social as he is perfectly happy wondering around in there until I enter the room and then he comes up to the glass and starts pawwing. He does it when he sees the...
Thank you :) I was interested in getting one and researching them etc and then I found this guy for sale and could see that he wasn't being looked after so rushed to go get him. When I picked him up he had no working uvB lamp and no heat lamp either and his grip was very weak. Now he almost...
Yes I am sure I measured him this morning, he had MBD for a long time before I got him which is why he's small at the moment cos I've only just got him and he wasn't looked after properly at his previous house
His vivarium is 18x18x24 and he's only about 4inches from the base of his tail to the tip of his nose. He is always allowed out to explore whenever he wants to, I just wanted to make sure that there wasn't a health reason for him doing it, I'm more than happy for him to be social :) I also...
My 15month old Male Yemen chameleon has recently started scratching at the glass at the bottom of his vivarium. He has plenty of branches and plants to climb on and the temperatures range between 90F in the hottest basking spot (he has more than one) and 60-70 at the bottom. He is more than...
The thing is I don't know if he still has it or if he is just still showing the effects of having it before. His bones are hard and not at all fragile and he climbs with no problem, he's not weak and is feeding regularly. I tried him on liquid calcium and he won't take it and I don't want to...
I am using Nutrobal which contains Calcium, D3 and multivitamins. He isn't showing any signs of currently having MBD that I can see but he has obviously had it before as he has deformed legs.
I have recently brought this little guy, when i saw him I realised that he had bowed legs and his veil was small and soft. In the few weeks that I have had him I have replaced his Uva and uvb bulbs, changed him from crickets on to gut loaded (mainly fruit and kale), calcium and D3 dusted locusts...
Thank you so much for your advice, I have let him have a few more which he struck for straight away and then he showed no interest after that so at least I know he will stop. I just didn't want to make him poorly by over feeding, would it be an idea to get some wax worms to fatten him up or...
He's a year old and he happily ate 15 locusts yesterday and then I offered him a few today just to see if he would go for them and he was straight on them like he was starving. I was told to feed 5 locusts every other day but I'm worried that's not enough, or maybe he's just greedy and I need to...
