I just wanted to bump this with an update. Lily's swelling has gone down significantly and she is looking MUCH better and acting like herself again. :) No more tongue dropping either. The vet is ordering me a special calcium supplement, so hopefully that comes in soon. I'll update with...
She is not normally that thin at all. She was irritated and she like deflates herself and starts swaying. She is smaller for her age, but she was tiniest of the batch when I got her. She's normally much bigger, but I had to pull her out to get pictures and she wasn't a happy camper about that.

Picked up the following...

I thought I'd go ahead and make an intro post and say 'hello'. I've been lurking here for a long time (great info here) and just recently signed up. I currently have one female Veiled, Lily, she's about 3 months old now. She's not my first Chameleon. About 6-7 years ago I had a male Veiled...
