To help the humidity and temp, I have a shower curtain placed around 3 sides of my chams cage. Maybe something like that would be better than tin foil?
I don't think that's the worst thing possible. Especially if you're someone, like me, who thinks their pets need a clean cage all of the time. I clean cages everyday lol
I've been looking into expanding my animal collection (1 tree frog, 1 dog, 1 fish, 1 exotic bird, 1 chameleon), and the reptile I would really like is a leopard gecko. I've researched them quite a bit now. I just have to run it by with my dad seeing that I still live at home for the moment. It...
He recently had a small piece of shed right under his little eye, and now it's gone. I beleive that's what's bugging him so much. I've been misting over him, trying to help him dislodge it as best as I can help.
I'm very concerned about how my chameleon is rubbing his eye. He very vigorously rubs his eye on anything to the point where it seems like his eye is moving around weirdly in his socket. It seems bulgey after he rubs it and it takes a few blinks before it's back to normal. Sadly I don't have a...
He get calcium with out d3 pretty much every day, and calcium with d3 twice a month, sometimes I'll give him a little more than that. I'll also give him vitamins when I feel that it's needed
I just had a fecal done on him a few days ago and it was parasite free. I'm starting to think that something was probably wrong with him before I even got him.
It's hard for me right now to take his cage outside right now. On Monday it was 80 degrees, but the last few days we've been lucky if the highest temp is 50. But once it's warm, I'm going to take him outside and do that.
The thing is, that was the only vet anywhere close to me that had a doctor that "specialized" in reptiles. She, for the most part, sounded like she knew what she was talking about, but she also said that she had to out-source a few of my questions and concerns to another vet. That vet is hours...
I thought his skin looked a little tight. He's fresh from a shed, so i thought maybe it was normal. I mist him as often as possible, especially when I do spot misting to get some water or nearby leaves for him to drink. Thanks for the light schedule recommendation. I'll try that.
I've checked and 98% of the time he's asleep until his light comes on. There is absolutely no light in his room until his light comes on. But if he needs me to change his light schedule, then I will!
