I do give him the supers because I have to hand feed. I can't stomach roaches unfirtunatley, and he seems to freak out with the crickets tickling his face, lol. I thought those would be best because they have more chitin (thats what I've read). Thanx for all the info all!

I do change it up occationally, but the supers are his staple. I always crush the heads to be sure they don't bite him. I feed him about 12pm, still to late? Is this something I should worry about? Do you recommend feeding everyday 3-4 worms instead of every other day?

I actually wound up contacting the breeder (Vincent from Screameleons). He has been very helpful, and I now have him on baytril and Genamicin and showering him everyday. I asked my vet to give me the Baytril, he didn't think it would work, but gave it to me anyway. (This is what I asked for...

Thanks for the input all!

I have read on here that herptivite should be used 1-2 times per month, but then my breeder (a very reputable one) said that I should give it to my panther a lot more frequently, like 5 days/week. Did I read wrong. What is the correct amount to use/month or week?

Thanks Jann!! I will be speaking to vincent from Screameleon also tonight about him, see if he recommends anything. (thats where I got him).

I'm willing to drive to NJ or Conn. if I have to, or even northern NY. It's so sad that I can't find a good vet here! I guess shipping would be an option, but wouldn't it cause a lot of stress for him, being shipped there and back, and being in a different environment for a few days?

Thanks all

That's who I have been using, I've heard the same about him, that he is the best one in the area. Dean is actually the one who recommended him to me. He definatley seems to know more than the other vet I went to, but this problem with my little guy has been the same since April. When I...

there is a thread in the health clinic section here https://www.chameleonforums.com/eye-problem-sleeping-much-30417/ I just posted some pics of him too on there.

here are some pics of his eye. you can tell that the bad eye is sunken, but the good eye is fine.

Thanks Harry, I've been to 2 of the vets on the list, and have been striking out. One of the member recommended the one I'm seeing now, but my poor guys eye is not better. If you hear of any please keep me posted. Thanks. And thanks for the bump Jann;)

he was under the repti sun when it started, just about month or so ago he has been under these. But the reptisun has been ordered regardless.

thanks again for the reply's. I have posted a new thread for a different vet;). The scratch as been there since April, which is why this is so frustrating! But even worst he's sleeping ALL day today, which is why i'm overly concerned. I will try the showering again with the current drops...

I have been using a vet in Plainview for the past few months, who has not fixed the current problem with my chameleon. Can someone recommend a GOOD vet on the island? Thanks

Thanks for the reply. as for the lighting, I have been concerned that there was no hood reflector on these lights, but thought since there are 2 5.0 bulbs it would be sufficiant. should I put a reflector above both? the fixture wouldn't work with one of the bulbs out, which is another reason...
