Krunch

[SonTigerPantherCham]

Just an update,
First a really big "thank you" to those of you that have check in regularly to see how Krunch is doing.
He is taking his calcium shots like a champ!. Today he got a 30 min warm shower, and even free range time
he hasn't fallen in days and is up to 3 or 4 worms a day. Hopefully his appetite will continue to improve.
The previous owners had a 100 watt powersun for a basking lamp and I had to change that, now he is starting to bask as well.
We are gonna stop the MBD!

Glad to hear that he is improving. Great job Anne. Krunch's story reminds me of one of my vet's blog entries. We have got to educate people on chameleons. A link to his MBD entry below.

Oh wow I haven't been online a lot lately. Glad you found out what the problem was and are having him treated. I hope things turn out well.

 

[SonTigerPantherCham]

Thank you Jann, your words of wisdom and support always help me and all others here.
And Michael, like where have you been? Too many babies to have any down time?!

 

[SonTigerPantherCham]

Hi Leroux,
Yeah, only had him 24 hours when I noticed he was off. Took him to the vet only to discover he has mbd. He is 8mo old and from the Kammer lines, but not Kammer care, so I hate to say he is a Kammer baby.
But I like challenges...but not at the expense of a being

 

[SonTigerPantherCham]

So only here can I be so happy over something anyone else would deem just odd!
Krunch ate his first cricket this morning at 8:40am!
its been almost 5 weeks.
He is up to 4 silks and 2 butters. This is good til I get his weight back on.
he is free ranging with ease, getting about 2 hours of beach sun a day and seems happy!
The Silvadene crem is amazing, it worked like nothing I've seen
So there you have it!, again to all of you that have checked in regularly about him, I can't thank you enough
I see the light...deffinitely!

[Old World]

He will be 100% in no time

 

[suzi]

[SonTigerPantherCham]

Thank you OW, you have been so in my corner, cheering me up and on!!
