I posted recently about a huge lump that has appeared under the tail (near vent) towards the left side of my Jackson’s. I’m really worried. Today he ate, but threw up one of his crickets early on. And now he’s clinging to a vine with his eyes closed and his hands looking kind of loosely gripped...
I have been keeping an eye on my guy Diablo the past couple days because I haven’t noticed any poops in his cage. On closer inspection it seems he has a big lump under his tail (near vent) on his left side. I have read things about impacting or possible sperm plug impaction but I don’t know if...
I only noticed him doing it yesterday, but it’s possible he did it again today– with the urate stuck to his chest and not being able to find any feces in the enclosure...
I feed him once a day, letting him hunt in a feeding cage for about an hour. In that time he eats anywhere from 10-15...
Oh my god thank you. It was stuck on really hard so I was afraid to rub it off and hurt him... but you’re right. It was a slimy urate stuck on his chest..haha. What a relief.
Is the eating poop thing a symptom of something though?
It seems the problems never end... at feeding time today I noticed my Jackson Cham (about 5 months old) has a white cyst-like sac on his chest area. It seems soft and puss-y... I have no idea what could have caused this.
About his set up:
He has an exoterra screen cage with the dual light kit...
Aloha all,
My baby Jackson Cham (about 4-5 months old) shed for the first time a few weeks ago. I sprayed him like crazy while it was happening but some skin managed to hang on around his arms- a little like cuffs above the elbow. It has stayed like that for a while despite attempting to gently...
Thank you! I will try to balance those three things better. I was actually thinking the crickets may have arrived to me gutloaded with something from the pet store that threw him off balance because he was okay before this last batch of cricks.
Okay that’s what I thought... :( how can I fix that? Will it just go away over time?
His enclosure is inside by a window but sometimes I take him outside for some real sunlight.. not for very long though. I’ll probably get a good plant for him to climb around on the lanai if that would be good...
I have a neonate Jackson’s chameleon about 3 weeks old or less. I’ve noticed lately he has a little lump in his neck and I just want to make sure I adjust anything if needed in his feeding/watering/enclosure. I feed him gutloaded pinheads (carrots and mango in alternation). so far I’ve dusted...
