Thanks, so if the Arcadia D3 T-5 is 24 Watt, and my fixture is 2X 24 Watt, it should be fine, even though it's not labeled as "high output"?

I'm looking into replacing my current Reptisun 5.0 T5HO that is about 5 months old with the Arcadia 6% T5HO, and noticed that Arcadia says it "must be used with a T5HO fixture". I currently have a dual T5 fixture for Bernard that I read to purchase somewhere on here. One bulb is a 6500k bulb for...

Thanks for the advice. I'll do that. Thanks a lot

I'm glad I asked you! Is this silver sulphadiazine cream? Whenever I google it, I can't tell if this is what I could use on a cham. It does say it's used for burns, but I don't see the word "sulphadiazine". I'm in the US!

I’ve read about the silver sulphadiazine—is that something you can get online or is a prescription needed? I will definitely keep an eye on it and bring him to the vet if it declines. Thanks for your input!!!

Bump?

Yeah, unsure if it’s from his shed. He JUST finished shedding, so I was going to watch it for a couple days. I noticed it yesterday.

Hey guys! Bernard just had the shed of his lifetime and some very vibrant new colors have emerged. I’m honestly surprised too because he’s 2, I didn’t think he would change much more. Anyway, I’m slightly concerned with his spine, in some lights it looks like it’s just dark red but in other...

The medicine has really perked him up and he’s exploring much more. Still won’t drink (at least while I’m watching him) or eat, but I think he will soon. Giving him his second dose today and then next week going back in with a poop to make sure all is clear. His eye is still wonky, but he keeps...

Good call, I’ll check those out. Never have gotten them before. He’s such a sweet Cham but he’s NEVER wanted to eat out of a cup, maybe after he gets his appetite back things will be different though. Never have tried bug burger but I’ve heard good things about that one too. I stumbled upon...

Yep, been bringing him outside for about 30 minutes every day since then. I have to monitor him and stand right by him seeing as the tree is just in the yard, and our weirdo neighbor feeds all the birds and the squirrels. He definitely enjoys it. It gives me life haha. My previous chameleons...

Yep, I read that! Just wasn’t sure if my “dosage” ratio would be fine. Don’t know how much vitamin A he truly got. Hopefully we’re on the up and up now! Nard is draining our wallet lol.

How often would you do this in my case? I gave him a droplet of a mix of vitamin a and water (a “dash” of powder and id say 1/8th cup of water mixed, but only gave him 1/4 teaspoon of the mixture) the other day, but I know that they can OD on this so I don’t want to do it often. Once a month or...

Just got back from the vet again and got his medicine. She gave him his first dosage and said for me to give him the second in a week. Then bring another fecal in a week after that to make sure they’re gone. She sort of reiterated what I’ve heard here a lot, that a small amount of pinworms is...

Definitely what I’m going to do next. I have to go to this anyway to pick up the pinworm medicine, I’m going to discuss the eye with her more and then if it goes no where, I’m going to Dr Wolf.

Here’s a GIF of how it moves on his eye.

Oh, ok. It’s connected to his eye. And it hasn’t moved since it appeared, maybe a little, but I can’t tell. It looks like a blister! Maybe a week and a half. Basically this whole thread is about it, and I’m in contact with a vet, who I’m seeing for the second time tomorrow.

appreciate your input. We will definitely be disinfecting everything. Eyeball update: he’s pretty much always using his left eye now, despite still looking like somethings in it. Right eye looks bad still. Took some more pics. I hope it’s not a detached retina. He definitely appears to still...

In my recent readings of vitamin A deficiencies I did come across tail necrosis as a sign of it. https://www.petcoach.co/article/chameleons-signs-treatment-and-prevention-of-vitamin-a-defi/
