Humidity is normally for 55-65. He won't try to eat when his eye is closed. And he still moves around the cage. He doesn't seem stressed to me. He is also drinking normally.
That's his eye
Hm, can you tell me your lighting schedule? Handling? Any falls or prior injuries/illness? To me it sounds like his eye is irritated
Take him in for sure. Looks wrong, could be an infection. Have a fecal check and blood work done!
His lighting schedule is from 8 in the morning to 8 at night. As far as I've known he hasn't ever been sick, I just got him.
It just started yesterday but I took him to the vet and he got medicine
what medicine did they gave you?
ThatOMG you too. It must be chameleon eye closed day LOL
Yes they said it was a common infection in little chams and it was nothing to worry about as long as he takes the medicine
Im glad to hear that. Should clear up fast, I suggest adding some additional humidity so that he can clean his eyes more for now
I can't seem to get his humidity any higher that it is! Do you have any tips
If you have a screen cage, put some shower curtain around the sides. That really helps maintain higher humidity levels without have the mister running constantly.
Ahhh okay!!
I am also going to be doing what you suggested @K_Wolf since i have a screen cage too and as soon as the misting is done, all the humidity leaks out of the cage. Please keep me posted on your Chameleon @Bombbow
How long has it been since they gave you the ointment??Thanks for sharing the medication. The vet only gave me eye wash and some ointment but i feel like that wont be enough
