Does Bean have MBD??!!!

[Chameleoking]

It’s starting do dry out on the top

It should stay just moist enough to where you squeeze a handful and it takes shape and holds shape with no dripping.

She doesn’t seem to want to eat. Just weak back legs & heavy back end. Strong grip still. Lol. I hope she will be ok & pull out if this.

Can you post pics of the lay bin and the entire cage for us including the lights? There is still a chance of her laying if her grip is strong. It should not be drying out this quickly if you used moist playsand. Using a kitchen large spoon to dig a good test tunnel may help as well.

That it is. I’ll take pics here after a bit.

Yes... I will after a lil bit. Her light just went on this am & my daughter isn’t awake yet. I don’t feel like she’s “dying” she seems to be fighting. Just doesn’t want to be in the bin at times. Wants to crawl out at times.

Here’s beans enclosure & lay bin. I made it more moist this am.

Did you possibly move the heat lamp down?

I will be very surprised if she lays the eggs. I'm pretty sure she's eggbound. Even if her grip is strong without enough, calcium in her system, due to the drain that many eggs must have put on her system including the bones, I would think is at low levels. I doubt the muscles will have enough calcium to give them the strength to push the eggs out. Sorry to say that.

I hope she isn't so weak that they can't help her at the vets on Wednesday if she makes it that long.

^^^^ I agree with this 100%... She is not even supporting her weight. Also eyes are starting to sink in.

This I have noticed. I’m super super sad about all of this. I can’t stop beating myself up. And my daughter is still so devastated.

I was trying to post videos but it won’t let me. She did drink some water just a lil bit ago. And still wants out of her lay bin. She still is having trouble with her back legs & back end. I’m just at a loss on what more I can do.

I don't think there is much you can do until she sees a good chameleon vet so the eggs can be removed and the other issues dealt with.

Couldn’t get in. Gotta call again @ 8 am tomorrow.

I have been calling every single vet every damn day. Literally broke down on the phone with one of them.

 

[Lindasjackson]

you said on Monday that a vet called and could get her in today in the am! What happened?
