Dr. Wright is board certified in reptile medicine and has much experience with chameleons. He is phenomenal...very knowledgeable, thorough, intuitive, insightful, compassionate...
Can you be more specific? Which part is more liquid - the white urates, the brown fecal, both? Any change in color or smell? If it's only the white urates that are runny-ish, then yeah, it's likely from the silks because they do a great job of mega hydrating. She's just ridding herself of extra...
Here's my two cents:
You didn't mention much about your vet. Hopefully (and I'll assume so), your vet is experienced with chams, preferably board certified in reptiles too, but minimally has solid experience & knowledge with/about chams. If not, ask him/her to refer you elsewhere or check the...
heh heh heh
really?? well, ok then, here we go! ready? :D so, tell me...just looking at your veiled, how would you differentiate between a perforated esophagus or stomach or intestine from a cricket leg spine or ovipositor, and say, liver disease?
jk, it's a rhetorical question :p
hey everyone, thanks for your replies...think i'll hang in read mode on invisible....no need for personal profile either, anyone who wants to know something can ask via PM....no harm done that way! ;)
k9Luvn - no, no! sorry, it wasn't anything you said, don't worry. it was due to some...
i am editing this original post...lost interest in this forum...i don't need the crap, i'm too new to chams, the ignorant, judgmental comment i received on one reply to someone else was not helpful at all. thanks, but i have better things to do
hahaha, i totally get that!! they have more than a sticky tongue, something about them really zaps our hearts...they appear and BAM, we're instantly stuck on them. all the subtelties, soooo many little things. i've barely just started, but i got chammed on day one...i'm his fly and he's my fly...
awwww...bedtime is my favorite time! i love when it's lights out time, my little Jango puts himself to bed and it's the cutest thing i've ever seen. he finds a spot, then backs up just a wee bit and bellies down. it's that backing up stuff to get comfortable that seriously just cutes me out...
yep, definitely all the above...and more! i'll add a few things to my list:
1. suddenly sit bolt upright from a dead sleep not knowing why and anxiously wondering, "is he ok???"
2. spend hours, literally, just watching, monitoring, studying...ever-so-silently and furtively so as not to...
when i saw these precious pictures of little Elly, i started crying. i have such a huge lump in my throat and rock in my stomach over what's happened to Elly.
i only have one chameleon, my male veiled, Jango, and i've only had him for 1.5 months, but the love i feel for him and how much he...
Seriously? that makes me feel a lot better about the size and age of mine when i first got him (supposedly 4 mo, a month and a half ago) about how much would you say Loki weighs here?
in a nutshell: NO! :p
Jango is my little boy veiled, i love him so much i can barely hold such immense meaning in my little human heart. i watch him, study him, help him, handle him...all with eagle eyes. if anything happens to him, it'll claim my heart and my soul too. i doubt if i could...
Thanks for your quick replies, i guess i wasn't expecting anything so fast :D
hi camimom...my reaction exactly!! again, i'm not sure of his real age, but even if he's only 6 months, it still seems veryyyyy small. though i've not had any experience with chams, this just doesn't seem right to...
hi everyone :) this is my first post, and my first chameleon - veiled male.
just took my little pal, Jango, in to see the vet (Dr Kevin Wright, board certified in reptiles/amphibians, practices with Dr Johnson at Arizona Exotic Animal Hosp: http://azeah.com/About.asp?id=73) for slight eye...
