I too am a little confused and obviously distressing for all.
The vet has given us quite a bit of medication to administer over the next few days and we did it for the first time last night. Personally I didn't enjoy it as we haven't handled Rosie a great deal so to handle her and give her...
Thought I'd give you guys an update - sadly It's not the outcome we were hoping for.
Rosie stayed at the vets for 2 nights and they tried the hormones to induce however she did not lay. She also still has not eaten.
She has taken the medication and they said she was active but the vet...
Hi,
Rosie is having her 2nd night at the Vets Hospital..
He said she was dehydrated and weak but needs to lay the eggs so has given her something to induce - think he said can take 12 hours so they must have only gave her this today.
So far she hasn't laid or eaten but they are given her stuff...
Rosie is walking about but still hasn't eaten today. We have her booked in at the vets later today to get her checked out fingers crossed she's going to be ok.
We put the lights on for 12 hours a day and don't leave any lights on during the night.
Thanks for all your help and I'll let you...
Hi,
Iv added another photo where you can see her legs and body better.
The red heat lamp obviously has an effect but hopefully will allow for a more informed judgement.
It looks to me that she still has eggs at the bottom of her body.
Id also say that her top right elbow does look swollen but...
Thanks.
I think we will look at taking her to the vets to get her checked out.
She is still showing no interest in her food and she has been right next to a locust for ages but doesn't seem interested in eating it. I have put some kale and chopped up grapes in to her cage to see if she may eat...
Hi this is Sharron Jack's partner.
We didnt buy our chameleon whose now named Rosie straight from the reptile shop.The man we bought her off about 4 months ago couldn't look after her anymore. He said that she had already layed infertile eggs, so this is her second clutch. I have just removed...
Thanks for the replies- it is a UVB light and a heat light and it is the set up as advised per the pet shop.
The pet shop is not big chain and they specialise in reptiles so have followed the advice given - also had a look at a few things here too.
She was skinny when we got her but put on...
I'm very concerned about our 1 year old vieled chameleon as she looks weak, hasn't ate for days and looks dark and skinny after laying.
We thought she was pregnant and put a laying bin (bucket) but she wouldnt go into it, however she would go to the bottom of the cage which was unusual for her...
