The plant dripper isn’t running right now but when it is, I will cover the water basin with something to keep dirt, feces, and crickets out. I hand mist as well at the moment. I can’t find my reptirain. The bottom is a screen drainage area where the water flows into a bucket. I’m going to have...

Here’s the urates I noticed today. I’m working on covering that dirt with large rocks. That’s on the to do list today :). Also his reptibreeze enclosure comes in January. And his fecal examination came back negative.

Yes I do keep it frozen :)

Okay! Also, good news, he seems to have gotten hydrated pretty well from my attempt at giving him water. His urates were mostly white and a little runny so I think he is now well hydrated and I don’t have to worry about getting him extra water. I’ll post a picture in a second.

Here’s a video of my chameleon with the vets giving him his first shot. I did his second one three days after this was taken (first taken on Friday, second one on Monday) https://photos.app.goo.gl/2KznGWJ7aGpYYpUq6

This is from 2014 so I’m not sure what to think but here’s a picture of the links and interaction.

Thank you for this. I have found so much conflicting information that it’s hard to know. I can’t remember where but I found something on this site stating one of the vets fully indorsed bathing dehydrated chameleons because of the cloacal drinking. If I find it I will post it here but until...

I use a dripper regularly. I’ve been keeping it going at least 5 hours out of the daylight every day. I’ve dripped it on his nose but he just sits there and stares. I’ve dropped it near him but haven’t seen him drink from it but he might have. And yes his arm. I am working on getting photos but...

Just so everyone knows, I gave him his second injection of antibiotics myself as instructed and I think I did it right. It was harder than I thought it would be and he ripped it out the first time but the second time I got it in, hopefully deep enough. I also have a t5 linear 5.0 now. While he...

Are there any chameleon specific vets on this forum that could chime in on this issue? While I want to believe the vet I went to, I’m having a hard time with all the conflicting information from people who aren’t vets. I’d love to get another opinion from an actual veterinarian?

I was under the impression that you are supposed to use room temperature water. But is there a reason my vet said that they do rehydrate through their cloaca? Is there any beneficial hydration due to bathing?

I am replacing the compact uvb ASAP and have turned it off today to see if it’s the cause of him keeping his eyes closed and mostly having his one eye irritated. I will up the vitamins and the reason his food intake is higher than normal is because he is underweight and I am trying to gradual...

I will post some photos of his enclosure and him tomorrow. He is not impacted like I thought his was which is what the vet said, and it was confirmed when he defecated today. The vet also said because of the mouth opening/closing it was probably a uri and prescribed antibiotics for the uri as...

Yes I’m will definitely let you know! Unfortunately there is only one vet by us that is an exotic animal vet and they are currently not taking new clients and covid hit me hard so I don’t have the money to pay an emergency fee. But luckily 30 minutes away there is another exotic vet that I got...

Hello this is my first time posting about my Cham Zenji. He is usually a very friendly outgoing guy but recently I have noticed he hasn’t been feeling like himself. The first thing I noticed was what looks like bloating to me. He’s also acting lethargic sometimes even just kind of laying on a...

I could not see a single problem with glass as all my husbandry is correct and the Exo Terra accounts for airflow for reptiles. But every has a different opinion
