    6 Mo. Female Veiled Chameleon Sick? Any tips or advice would be helpful.

    No worries, Beman. I appreciate you promptly responding to everything and providing all the information you can thus far. She seems to be comfortable outside compared to inside. She is shaded by a branch and not in the direct sun so no worries there.

    The chameleon owner advised me to leave her outside and said she was better off as they naturally live outdoors in similar conditions. It's similar temperatures to what she would get in the cage and right now the basking bulb and UVA being at the top of her cage isn't helping too much...

    Ok gotcha, so I should bring her in right now? How long should I leave her lamps on for the rest of the night? She isn't in danger from any predators as she is locked in her cage. I am going to ditch the shower idea but want to know how my girlfriend's roommate can give her water properly - she...

    So would it be better to keep her inside or outside? She spent the entire day and night outside in her cage yesterday and most of the day today and I want to advise who is watching her this weekend to do the same depending on what is best for her right now per your recommendations. I just gave...

    I have not, I will do that after I get finished with my workload in about an hour. So I just take her while shes on her branch and lay it on the shower floor and let the shower head point at the side or bounce off the curtains to hit her? Should I supervise her the entire time or just leave her...

    Yeah, I think you are driving a tid bit fast, haha. I used to come down there all the time for the infamous Gratitude Training so I remember the drives. I'm hoping that too and hate to leave her even for a few days while she's in this condition. Hoping for the absolute best and that my...

    Here's a video update of what she's doing right now: https://streamable.com/t5kpa Hanging in her branch and enjoying the breezy sunny day. I am going to give her some more Baytril in a half hour since it's about the same time yesterday when she last got some.

    Yeah, unfortunately i'm heading North tomorrow so it wouldn't work out that way - plus it takes about four or so hours to get to WPB from here naturally. I appreciate you so much though, thanks for the offer. <3

    Where are you at? You might be on the way out but also agree with you. The car ride with the vet. was a lot for her even yesterday but want more than anything for her to be in good hands while i'm gone. I was just told by a chameleon owner that she leaves her Chameleons outside for a number of...

    Hey, thanks for the information and the charts. So should I get some crickets and put a mixture of carrots, collard greens and other listed items in the cricket container and let them eat those for a day or two? I will ditch the Flukers and guessing the blackberry I put in there for the crickets...

    I just tried to fit a cricket in her mouth the same way I did with the mealworms (they have been eating Flukers gut load) and she crunched it but kept spitting it out. Didnt get a full one down. She seems to keep going to sleep or something when feeding so I will have to lightly pet her to...

    Hey Amanda, I have been misting her cage constantly whenever it gets dry and refilling the dripper, I just don't see her drinking from it at all so that's why I originally had to syringe water with her. The vet advised me to use the misting and dripper and try to have her drink that way. I have...

    Should I just keep her cage misted and water dripping from the dripper or try to shoot water in her mouth with a syringe? I don't want to get any in her air flow hole and aspirate her so what would be the best technique for giving water? Try to shoot to back of throat or what? Earlier my room...

    I was told the tap water here in Florida is fine for them to drink, though I have purified water from Publix that I drink myself. Should I use this instead?

    Was the vet just being lazy? I told him she hadn't ate in days and he said to wait till tomorrow night to see if she still wasn't eating then come in for the syringes. I feel like those would be helpful now since it's been a couple days since I last actively saw her eating crickets.

    Gotcha, should I change her dripper fluids bag to regular then? I'll hold off on the vitamins since thats mostly what I have been giving her.

    I've been mixing the water with a very light amount of Reptivite Reptile Vitamins, should I use the Pedialyte instead?

    About a half of a blunt syringe, learned that she needs just droplets instead.
