Sorry your girl is ill. I don't have advice, but would like to hear what your vet says and also of her progress. Good luck, I hope she's feeling better soon, Brandy

Thanks owowsedthecow, I tried it this morning, but she didn't respond to that method either. I don't know why I didn't think of this sooner, but I put the medicine in water to dilute it to make her think it's the water. I've gotten half the medicine in so far. She also pooped this morning...

Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, she isn't eating so I can't give her the meds on crickets. I'm giving her water via eye dropper and then switching to Baytril. She is getting some of the Baytril when I try to get it into her mouth, but I don't know if it's enough. I'm extremely worried...

I'm trying to give the Baytril medication to my cham. I'm trying to give it when she drinks from the eye dropper; however, as soon as the syringe gets close to her mouth she clamps her jaw shut. Any suggestions on how to get her to open her mouth???? Thanks!

Here's a picture of her yesterday in the shower before the vet. You can see her eye has a dark circle under it and is sunken in a bit. There's just such a big difference between yesterday and today.

Thanks. I am attaching a picture of her. I noticed a lump on her head. It's only on the right side and wasn't there before. She just looks like she feels terrible. I'll discontinue the fish oil drops and the eye drops I used to today. I just pray the antibiotic works.

This morning she was still dark. She lightened up after having a luke warm shower. She's peach colored again, but not really moving around or eating. I turned on a red bulb heat lamp in her cage for additional warmth since this seems to get her to lighten her color and where she parked herself...

Question on Ceftazidime....is this only by injection? thanks.

A big thanks to all of you. This is my first Chameleon vet experience and I just didn't feel confident when we left the office. Especially when she turned very dark in the car on the way home. She has lightened up a bit, but not her peachy color like she was before the appointment. As far as...

Thanks ferretinmyshoes. The size of the needle really freaked me out.

(See end of post for Chameleon info) I took my 6mos female Ambanja / Nosy Be cross to the vet today to have her eyes looked at. She has one eye sunken in and the other has a buldge on the bottom part of eye. She has been very passive which is unlike her and just seems like something is...

Reno, Nevada Temps here are in the low 60s and extremely windy. I found a Repti-Glo bulb by Zilla close by and will purchase that while I wait for the Reptisun to arrive. Now, what to do about the calcium suppliment. I'm so glad that I posted here. I appreciate all the advice...

Humidifier Should I get a cold mist or warm mist humidifier? Thanks, Brandy

Shopping Trip I was able to find the Reptisun hood, but not the long tube bulb. I was able to find Supplimental Calcium w/ D3 but not without. I will have to order these online. What should I do regarding the UV and calcium in the meantime? Thanks! Brandy

Shopping list Thanks for the advice!! Apparently the pet shop isn't as informed as I thought. I'm planning my shopping list for the pet store. Is a Reptisun 5.0 bulb okay to use on a baby? Regarding feeding: What is IMO? Supplements: Carol5208, thanks for the bag tip. My...

I am a new Chameleon owner and first time posting. We adopted our Panther Chameleon on Saturday, May 21, 2011. We do not know if our new family member is male or female or what type of Panther Chameleon. I am posting our little guy and his habitat for advice and tips to make sure we are doing...

Hi Sherlinwed, I've had this problem with my houseplants and had to bake my soil to kill the eggs. Baking the soil at 300 degrees for 30 minutes is what worked for me. Brandy
