Mine last ate a few silkworms on a Tuesday, he looked/acted normal. By Wednesday night I noticed his entire body was orange (same colors as when he sleeps or is in defense/stress mode) and he began occasionally making gasping sounds with his head up /entire body held in an upright position on...
Up for sale is a wooden stand that I built for the ReptiBreeze XL (2ft x 2ft x 4ft). The cage rests on the perimeter of the stand, allowing you to drill holes in the plasitc cage bottom and put a plastic bin underneath to catch water. The stand is built with pine (using screws) and coated with...
Thank you for the detailed response and it's good to hear that he did not get the wrong meds at the vet and I don't need to ask an exotic specialist to evaluate what he was given.
Yeah, he went downhill really quickly, I agree with you in that it was likely too late, unfortunately. I'm glad...
I am not sure, the .015 is listed as the Qty for the item listed above. Fluids for hydration was an entirely separate line item.
I really hope they didn't trust a cat and dog vet to treat my chameleon. When I first called, they said they'd give it to an available vet and if needed will be...
It says 0.015 dose of Ceftiofur (Excede) 200mg/mL Inj /Mg
I'm going to ask for a specialist to evaluate this treatment. I spent $350 for the treatment and he's dead less than 24 hours later. Not to say the doctors call was bad, but I'd like a specialist to weigh in. The dr I got was just out of...
I brought my cham to the vet today because I think he has a URI. The vet was on the same page and recommended she gives him one 3ml injection of Ceftiofur vs 10-12 injected doses of (I forget the name but I used it before), over the course of 10-12 days; Ceftiofur remains active for 1 week. She...
Me? Confirmation bias? How so when I ended my post saying I'd go elsewhere if I was in the market? Or maybe I am misunderstanding your statement.
The only issue I had with the whole transaction is the delay in shipping, which I was never able to confirm if it was his or FedEx's fault. I paid...
I bought my panther from FL chams at the end of 2018, he's now 4 years old and I've had no issues. If I was to buy another, I'd go with Frams chams or kammerflage.
Edit: Sorry, I misread the intent of this thread. I'd keep your colony if you can so you always have good staples on hand. Just take off the heat source to not encourage breeding at a high rate.
I started a colony a month or so after getting my panther since he was devouring nymphs like crazy...
What kind of chameleon? Is it a panther? How old? If he's young, then do not expect to see much color.
Is he healthy? What color is he most of the time? Boring color is not a bad sign as it usually means they are content. Do you see coloration when he sleeps?
I would go easy on the temperature throttle once you start seeing new babies. I was in your shoes around 3 years ago and started a dubia colony for my single male panther juvenile. He was devouring tons of dubia nymphs and they are not cheap, so I thought why not set up a colony since they are a...
