I’m not sure who exactly. But the emergency vet gets all their information (even feeders) from the vet next door.

But if she advises the emergency vet that she needs to bask at 90-100, and that sunken eyes are normal, I’m not sure that TAEH is any good…. Why else would they tell the emergency hospital this incorrect information?

It’s hard to say. It’s the Texas avian and exotic place that’s recommended here. But the emergency vet that’s attached to that building gets all their information from them, has been the place I’ve been all weekend. And I’ve not been impressed. They say she is really healthy, chameleons close...

Definitely. With her closing eyes at home, would you take her into this vet today? Based on what the emergency vet says, I’m afraid the other vet will just say the same thing.

She's sleeping peacefully. :) With flash. Without flash.

I think she's pretty well tuckered out. I moved her to the plant so she won't fall, as that stick doesn't look so comfy. I'm about to turn off the lights for her for the night. The plan is to go to the recommended vet tomorrow, but honestly, I'm unsure of their competence, as they are the...

I've got her a little warm right now, but she is nicely colored at the moment. She's definitely not in the 89 degree spot. She's closer to 84-85 I would expect.

We are home now. Emergency vet says that the sunken eyes are normal. I'm not sure how much he knows about chameleons....

I definitely worry about the shot being overkill also. I'm doubting everything. They are going by the "board certified chameleon doctors" (from the chameleon doctor recommended here) who say females at 90-100 for basking. I know.... But if heat is allowing her to eat and not fade away, I...

Yes, we had her in a box on a plant. Cooler than at home.

Back at the emergency vet today. Was not happy how she looked at 1pm. Tried to warm her, then decided to come back here.

Yes, it was. But after the emergency vet got her warmer (90-100 basking area), she then ate 11 mealworms for them. I didn't see her eat though. She was in the back.

Yes, I have always cup fed her. We've tried to catch her opening her mouth and stick food in, but that's not so easy to time... And yes, I don't think she's too cold either, but that's the focus of this vet so far, is that she's too cold, as her baking should be between 90-100 (that's what it...

This vet says she couldn't feel eggs. I'm not sure my other vet knows much about chameleons... :( The tracking issue came after vitamin A and D3 shot. If you get technical, in her 2.5 years of life, I've never given her vitamin A, so I don't think a single shot would be too much (but maybe it's...

I'll be going to TAEH on Monday. Will any vet say that the 80 degree basking spot won't create "hypothermia"?

What they said.

And actually, we started off with the 10.0, but moved to a 5.0. I decided to change it out today, even though I shouldn't have to have changed it quite yet, and moved it to a 10.0 that I happened to have, and Pez perked up and went over to that area. So I am thinking she is liking it, and that...

That's what I would think as well. I would think a week or so would be all it would take. Not 3 months later...

Vet here doesn't say she can feel eggs. She says that my 80 degree basking isn't enough, that it's too cold for her. Pez is in a small area right now, 90+ degree basking spot, and is now warmed up and ate 10 mealworms. Her ankles are a little swollen. She's going to get a little more fluid and...

Would 2 leftover eggs still be there waiting? Wouldn't she have gone downhill back in January? I'm thinking it is likely to be a vitamin a issue. With the injection 4 days ago, how quickly can we turn this around? I'm at an emergency hospital with her now, been here for 2 hours now. Waiting...
