Hello!
This is my second time posting on here. I have the same issue as before, except i made some drastic changes to my enclosure from a lot of your great advice but still NOTHING. So here's the issue...
My Panther Cham is approx 1-2 years old. He's male. Since i adopted him from his previous owner he went from eating 3-7 gut loaded super worms coated with calcium, repashy on a cycle. He completely refused ANY other types of worms, crickets etc. Then about a month ago he stopped eating every day, I've been logging his eating habits and he eats on average 1-2 super worms every 1-2 days. He's lost weight, no sign of MBD though because i ensure i load those little worms up with calcium for when he DOES decide to eat it. One thing id like to mention is since i adopted him, his tongue never fully extends and he has very poor depth perception. I have to place the worms on the screen right in front of his face and sometimes it even takes him a couple times to get it. One other issue that is new is he has developed a grey spot on the top of his head, and his spikes have begun to turn grey as well? Ive never had the chance to see him molt yet as i just adopted him not to long ago but is this normal? Is this a symptom of something else? Please keep in mind, THERE IS NO VET HERE. Its not even a option to go see a reptile vet as the nearest one is 8 hours away. Ill give some listed details and hopefully it answers anyones questions they have for me.
Heat Lamp: 150W (I Measured the Temp and it ranges from 80-90'F For his basking area)
Repti Fogger: I refill It the second its empty aside from when it runs out at night but i fill it before I leave
UVB Light: Its only a couple months old Its a ZOOMED 5.0 UVB
Dripper: I fill it up 24/7 but sometimes my cham pulls on the tube so it doesn't run 24/7
Misting: I Mist the tank any time i think it looks a little dry (3+ Times a day)
I have no stagnant water at the bottom as I've installed a draining system.
Health: Since he has stopped eating I've noticed he's MUCH more lethargic and sleeps often at the bottom of his enclosure where it's colder?
I have a Humidity and Temp gauge in roughly the middle of the enclosure So keep in mind top and bottom enclosure temps are different.
TEMP: 70-75 Avg. Humidity: 45-55% Avg.
Out of Enclosure: 3 Times for 5 Min Per week. He normally doesn't like to leave his enclosure but once in a while he will want to come out and explore when he's feeling active.
(Side Question For Anyone who May have a guess or idea: Today while exploring around with him I noticed his colours on his face changed dramatically! Normally when he's very angry he just turns a solid red, and yellow and mi
