Thank you very much! :) Just trying to help out the little chameleons as much as I have room for haha. I view the chewing as a type of teething as it always happens at a certain age and then stops as they grow past it

All of the little rescue babies are sold and going to their new homes but thank you all for your interest in saving one of these little ones. They are SO sweet. :)

He should be fine. You mean he chewed on the bark right? They do this and they seem to digest it well.

I would put a 36" linear UVB light and one two two basking lights. OR you can get the small 20 watt metal halide lights and have them spaced out across the cage. Maybe 3.

How wonderful :)

If he is using his leg and has always been like that, could be from birth. Otherwise, a 10.0 zoomed or an arcadia would be a nice upgrade for him

The zoomed kit is not optimal at all. You should either get an ExoTerra Metal Halide UVB light or get an extra linear UVB bulb of a t5. Here let me put links: https://www.joshsfrogs.com/exo-terra-sunray-fixture-with-ballast-bulb-35-watt.html http://www.reptilebasics.com/arcadia-desert-12-uvb/...

5.0 is OKAY but does not NEARLY produce enough UVB as is equivalent to their natural conditions. Increasing to a better bulb would result in better growth. I guarantee. Also problem with weaker bulb is when they begin to weaken, they are VERY weak. No good.

haha do not beat yourself up haha. I always look at lighting first anyway. Just knee jerk reaction... Yeah CFL are okay but not the best. Certainly not for a veiled.....or anything else for that matter in my opinion haha

Well I could be wrong. But that is one of those double dome fixtures for a cfl and a heat lamp.Unless the uvb is elsewhere or off or something. In the fourth picture?

The lighting is not adequate. CFL bulbs? Not enough for a veiled chameleon. Okay for short time and then a lot of problems will arise. Lessen the misting as well. Veileds do not need so much and it can actually lead to more problems. And like kinyonga said above, 80 is a bit cool for a veiled...

Oh dear. Carrot is useless and wax worms are mostly fat and not enough nutrition. Is this accurate?

Hm. Eye issue and as someone pointed out, the leg issue. What is your supplements schedule? Also 5.0 is WAY not efficient for a veiled. Could also be causing problem there with metabolizing nutrient

Looks okay but his casque is a little small for his size. What kind of lighting you have him beneath?

Pictures?

Undigested food matter it looks like. They have very short digestive tract. Sometimes if they are too cold or eat too much, they will not be able to fully get everything digested.

This male is going to show amazing coloration. Lots of orange, white, and koi. His demeanor is not as kind as his brothers but adequate handling would certainly be easy to do and he would easily calm himself with new owners. Father and brother pictures also added. He is already ready to breed...

As you may or may not already know, I recently rescued 47 chameleons from a very bad environment. Some have battle scars like nipped tails or scabs but are otherwise okay for new homes after have been checked for parasites, provided panacur for deworming of any sort in case they DID have...
