Eyes won't open

I didn't see a vet. I called him and sent him pictures of her and he said that she was in early stages of dehydration and to mist her and maybe shower her. So I did for 2 days now and she is now opening her eyes and eating and drinking on her own. In the next couples of days I plan on getting her a bigger cage with live plants.



If you want some extra inscurance and know shes grtting water look for my post in health clinic section. Hydration with food
 
If you have seen her drink, then she was definitely dehydrated. Young veils DO NOT like to drink in front of humans [most of them]. After being in your care for maybe several months, they tend to be open to idea of drinking in front of you. Young veils can be very anti-social. It's a survival instinct.

Wow that is great news indeed. After she has fully recovered, and feels up to pictures it would be great if you were to post them. It's not often we get to see chams come from this far behind the eight ball.:)
 
She really didn't want me to take a picture but her eyes are open and her color is way better than it was. Her eyes still aren't 100% but are getting better everyday
