    Swollen Eye Tissue, please help

    Alrighty. And this will be enough water for him? It just doesn't seem like a lot. Also, the reptile specialist called back and said new eye drops are fine unless injected into the blood stream. Gave him first dose just now. I also took him outside to try basking in the real sun for a while. I...

    Swollen Eye Tissue, please help

    yeah awesome idea! So I just poke a hole in the bottom of a cup, set it on top of my cage so it drips through the mesh into a tupperware. How does the chameleon access it?

    Swollen Eye Tissue, please help

    Hello, I have a Jackson's chameleon. The tissue around his pupil is swollen almost completely over the pupil. I took him to the vet as soon as I noticed it (July 7th). However, I live in an area where there is a vet who takes reptiles, but they are by no means reptile experts (the nearest...
