Yes hydration! Am obssessed right now. He is gweting horn worms ( his fav) and after i give him the antiinflamatory he gets two droppers filled with water to wash it down. He seems to really like that, but then again i have trained him to drink from a dropper and thankfully the meds havent...
The meds are eye drops are Trobamycin, anti inflammatory is Melosicam 1.5mg at 0.03ml by mouth and antibiotics Ceftazidine 200mg 0.03ml injection once every three days. 10 doses. Was told tgus may take a while to resolve.
No was affraid of the eye issue. I think its gone down on the face considerably but the bump by tthw eye has gotten bigger and it seems that its has gone over the bridge. But the eye is not irritated like it was ititially. At first i was thinking if not abcess then papilomas. Seems to me they...
My poor Hunter went to the ER last Saturday with a bump on his face and a swollen left eye. Thurned out there were two bumps. The one on bridge of the nose was soft and possibly fliud filled and there was a small hard one near the corner of his left eye. because of the possibility of them being...
My first thought is dehydration. The ring is excess skin which they need when their eyes are puffed out and moving constantly. Would like to see a current pic when she is awake.
I am so so sorry you lost your little guy. He was beautiful. Keep your plant light going to keep the plants alive until you are ready for another cham. I am glad you are thinking sanitization. Since you dont know what caused this tragedy, you cant rule out cage contamination. Start with the...
Flukers bend a branch are the only vines i use. Vines with fake moss, fake leaves, made of rubber or other material that disintergrate under the lights are a hazard for many reasons. Also i clean my vines and branches off with chlorahexidine which is vet recommened and safe for chams its also...
Hello and welcome. Flukers makes great vines. And i suggest hormworms. My veiled just loves them. with this heat wave, the extra fliud will combat dehydration. Rainbowmealworms.com has a great variety of feeders and if there is ever an issue they resolve it right away.
It really depends on your animals. There is no blanket answer because of the different personalities. My cat is a large cat and he adores me and has never messed with the chams. My veiled has learned the cat is not a threat and likes to hangout on me with the cat. My panther she is so sweet...
Please make sure you put a good sealant on that wood. Also the palms are ok to climb on when they are young but really cant handle the weight of a full grown cham such as a veiled. Also they dont offer much shade. Remember chams are tree dwelllers their entire bodies are geared for it. I...
Since he is so small, a small horn worn or wax worm might be better. dont inject into the middle of the horn worm cause when they bend there it will squirt out.
BTW since your cage is 48" you are going to have get the plants up higher. The pathos can be put into hanging pots and hang from vines if need be. The bigger plants you will have to zip tie to heavy branches. Stick to loght weight plastic pots!
Not a knockoff i have one exactly like it. Its very heavy and has to be hung above the cage. When you first get it, set it up in your bathroom turn it on facing up and shut the door for about an hour. Then go see how hot it is so you have a full.idea of how hot it gets and how far to hang it...
My best friend is the bird lady and she memorializes her birds by wrapping in a special scarf then burying in a plant. the plants she uses are all ones that will grow to a good size that way she can take them with her if she moves. Once the plant is big enough to go into a half barrel, she burns...
I think Michaels sells plaster of paris. Mix it and pour it into a cookie cutter shape you like or a top to a jar, pour in the plaster then let it set for a few minutes, it sets fast, then gently press the hands\feet into it and get a toothpick and write what you want. Once its set, push out...
