As someone who recently rescued a veiled from a similar situation, thank you. Mine is still not great, but much improved. Pics would definitely help, especially ones where we can see if there is any bending in the legs (MBD). Sounds like she is in a much better situation. You will need to get a...

Uh....kind of chameleon, picture, etc would be helpful...most people are not psychic....

Yeah, its harder to ID without more info, close-up of the leaves/stems, whether it has flowers, fruits. And I'm a florida botanist...so that doesn't help either.

Need a closer picture and your location

Color me excited!!

Oh Alejandro....you're gonna have babies? I may need a baby...lol...:D

I agree with you Dayna. If mine had that issue I would spaz. Even with my vast vet med knowledge and herp background. I would feel awful if he died b/c I was too cheap to go to the vet (which I am cheap, to an extent). ;) I'm glad your little guy is doing better!

Any update?

Thanks. He has been outside since the day I got him. Florida sunshine does a cham good!

Quick pic...during cage construction he was hungry so we took a break...loves to be held for some reason (probably cause I'm warm and I have food).

Popeye...lol...:D

Actually Carol, he did open an eye for a few seconds today and look at me. As if to say, "so you're the one feeding me...cool"...it was encouraging. He is putting on tons of weight everyday and looking better and better.

Lol, thanks. I was half expecting someone to ask husbandry questions! And he is happy, even if he is an "eye-closed skeleton". Hopefully he will continue to improve and enjoy actually being properly taken care of!

Well, I got bored and built a cage yesterday for the newly rescued (half dead) veiled...I think he's got plenty of room now :D

I would think so. Some may disagree, but as a botanist, all of the genus schefflera have the same chemical makeup. Ingesting a large quantity will cause mild toxicity. Also the sap is a skin irritant. But cham owners have been using them for ages with no problem.

No one is more toxic than another, they are the same genus, just different species. The one you have is a dwarf (amate/arboricola), the super tall ones are just the large version (actinophylla)...both umbrella trees. Should be no problem unless they consume a very large quantity. :)

Aww....eggs, yay....I'm right up the road!!
