They also gave mixture of meds for the parasites. They didn't mention if it's an overload. They just said he's not eating because he's got them and one particular type is worrisome.
Either way, if they are saying to try to transition him back to regular food, I'm assuming it's not the worst...
I first took him to the vet due to sperm plugs. After several tests we found out he's low on calcium, dehydrated, has parasites and there may be a kidney stone. One part of his tail is also discolored and has been for 2 weeks now. I kept him with the vet a few days and am now continuing to give...
Hi all,
I am currently force feeding my 1 yr old veiled. He has parasites, dehydrated and a little low on calcium. I have his meds, food that I have to force feed and I mist him as much as I can.
I currently have to force feed him everyday and would like to be able to transition him back to...
Because he runs away from the water. He is dehydrated and doesn't even drink off of the leaves anymore. This is why he's with my vet now. But either way, I'll need something during winter when it gets to be 20-30 degrees Fahrenheit.
Hi all,
My chameleon is dehydrated and I suspect it's because of the water not staying hot throughout the day. I also especially need it for winter. I was thinking of getting one of these and using it with a timer.

My misting system is the Mistking Starter Kit. The mist is very fine. The hand mister I use has very fine mist of water as well. I bought this particularly due to the reason you listed. Because of the big drops of water.
I'm going to the vet again soon as he still has not been eating.
Thank you for the tips. I did buy a little doggie bag that's dark and has netting on it. Should I have those covered up? I can include some branches in it and tie it securely through the netting before I cover it up.
For a cage outside, I have two options. I bought a butterfly cage big enough...
They did blood work and results show he has very low level of calcium and he is dehydrated. Please be aware that for a week prior to this visit, he hadn't been eating much and I suspect it could be due to his sperm plugs. I misted him more myself and put on KY jelly as suggested by some ppl on...
Wow, that's a mouthful. Thanks! Attached image is what injections the vet gave.
I checked on him again today and his tail still looks the same. Also, he hasn't eaten since the vet visit.:( that is my main concern. It's been 2 days so far but tomorrow I'll try leaving some collard greens in his...
Yes he can move his tail normally and everything seems fine which is why I am suspecting it's the shed. I gave him a 30 min shower and I noticed it a couple of hours after. That tail is a tough part to take the shed off from so it's still on there.
And no, nothing happened to his tail. He was...
Hi all,
Attached is a picture of my veiled. He is going through a recent shed and I noticed today that a part of his tail is a different color. His tail is still shedding but wanted to make sure it's nothing to worry about. It's been this way for a few hours and while still asleep his tail is...
