Dying Panth Cham

[Ozvaldo1969]

4 month old Panther.. thought it was shedding as it had stopped eating. His tail has turned white and he's on his back.

Looks lifeless at times.

We've been spraying to try and keep him hydrated.

Don't know what to do as 48 hours ago he was fit and healthy eating locust !!!!

I've included a picture of him from 7 days ago...

Vet ASAP and tell them it’s an emergency

 

[Ozvaldo1969]

This is what he's like now... his tail has gone white.

This is what he's like now... his tail has gone white.

Take him to an experienced chameleon vet and tell them it’s an emergency, if you can’t find any take him to an exotic vet also tell them it’s an emergency like someone has mentioned I’m not sure what’s wrong but that’s my best advice

He is on death's door. Where do you live? Maybe we can help you find a vet.

@kinyonga -- Have you ever seen a tail turn white like that, unrelated to shedding?

A four month old eating locust?

 

[kinyonga]

I've never seen a tail go white like that.

Looks like something is going on with his left foot too...it looks strange in the photo.

All I can say it's what's already been said...vet ASAP...fast as possible.

He's just done a massive poo and perked up. Looks like he's passed a waxworm.

Hopefully he'll start drinking more now ......

I would say he was massively constipated.

It's a massive learning curve.!!!!!!

 

[Ozvaldo1969]

George and his poo!!!!

 

[Ares05]

Vet is still in order Id say.....

Most likely parasites out of control. My guess is the chameleon won't live long. A vet is probably your only chance at this point and even with that it might be a longshot.

Kind of looks like there could be some MBD going on too.
