Major eye problem and not eating FIXED!
Major eye problem and not eating FIXED!
This is how I did it guys.
Someone was giving away a Female Ambilobe Panther Chameleon because she was sick and the owner did not have the time to care for her. So I decided to give it a shot to save her.
I was told that she was sick for almost 3 weeks as of 12/1/2011 her eyes where shut and she was not eating.
Here is what I did to save her
12/1/2011
BETA-CAROTENE suppliment for first 2 days.
Warm showers every day 20-30 min
Pedialyte (oral electrolyte) to drink everyday
Terramycin 2-3 times a day
Force feed 3 crickets a day supplemented with Rep-Cal Herptivie and Rep-Cal Calcium with VIT.D3
After 4 days showing eye improvement after 3 days of application of Terramycin 2-3 times a day.
12/15/2011
Terramycin 1 time
Force fed 4 crickets a day supplemented with Rep-Cal Herptivie only
Warm shower 20-30 min
Pedialyte (oral electrolyte) 2 times
12/16/2011
Force fed 4 crickets a day supplemented with OXBOW Carnivore Care mixed with 4 crickets every day
Warm shower 20-30 min
Pedialyte (oral electrolyte) 2 times
12/31/2011
Did not feed her for 2 days No food or water
Now eating live food on her own for the first time.
