well, I am in no way knowledgeable about this but is it from the wild or from an enclosure?? if its from an enclosure, is it from one of your animals??
is there something I'm missing here?? I don't see a chameleon in any of the pictures... my guess would be that hes looking for something or at something. a lot of animals have daily patterns, maybe theres a type of animal that comes through near his cage everyday and hes looking for it??? or...
lol ive got two large side by side windows in my room so my room gets so much direct or indirect light in the evening, facing west we get about 7-8 hours direct light in the summer, might grab one or two more mini phalaenopsis orchids
One more update, we got the fecal results back and he is completely negative!! Clean bill of health and he's actually started to eat more and drink more. I have a theory that it was a matter of stress from his acclamation and finding the right food, now he is regularly eating and drinking and...
well, its finally getting back to normal. I caught comet taking a drink from the dripper just now and things are looking up!! hes eaten 3 roaches this week and is starting to perk up a little, his previous owner never said anything about roaches, only crickets or mealworms so I think he was just...
Just called in and got the diagnosis, Comets dehydrated and malnourished but since he's started eating he seems to be fine, strong bones and grip, they're sending the fecal out tomorrow and they'll get the results back in a few days for us. Comets eyes closing have been due to stress response...
I think that he will be since hes started to eat, ill offer a few more roaches tomorrow morning and update on the feeding but hes extremely excited about the roaches and hes super fast to shoot out and grab them as long as they aren't too heavy
update: offices are closed weekends due to covid, 10 am Monday is the apt which gave us time to get a fecal and that happened tonight, sitting in our feeder fridge right now, good news, he had a few 1/4 inch dubias!! been running the dripper and he seems to be ok with it
thank you, we'll see what the vet says and decide whats best stress wise based on the diagnosis! :) hope its not too serious but we took him in as a rescue being prepared for anything that might come our way so this isn't unexpected. Rescues are tricky like that but its all worth it taking a...
the one from ikea that costed ten bucks??? honestly I had no idea what kind it was lol, it just said orchid so I picked it up and bought it, put it in some bark, coir, perlite mix and it just flopped over, probably because I went right ahead and dumped it next to the window....
alrighty, i'll make that happen asap in the morning, ive got a friend whos mom works at our vets office so I'm gonna contact them and see if she can put us in for tomorrow afternoon or as soon as they'll allow
