Hey guys, this is hard to write about as it is so recent. On Feb 28th, I bought a 2 month old male veiled Cham from Petco (I'll post another thread about why this was a bad decision). He looked fine and acted fine but refused to eat anything, barley drank, and continuously was aggressively rubbing his eyes on branches. Within two days, he declined to keeping his eyes shut all day and not moving (the few times he did, he climbed blindly). He got so bad that March 3rd I took him into the vet. The vet said she believes he has severe MBD and malnutrition (which is why I hate Petco for their neglect towards Chams). She said he was not well and gave him a Vitamin A shot as well as a list of vitamins to buy and feed him when he started eating. Until he started eating, I was told to force feed him the calcium and other medication she gave me twice a day. The first dose went well and he perked up after his vitamin a shot (even opening his eyes)! The next day, his conditioned worsened and he did not move all day or open his eyes. When the third feeding time came, it took me three hours to get him all of the food due to his small mouth and him not swallowing well. He spent the day every few minutes tilting his head up and gasping for air. I knew he was not well but I did not want to give up. In the evening, he was pale yellow and he was so weak he kept falling from his branches. He did this 4 times and I set him on lower branches to try and help any more possible incidents. He then almost fell but caught himself. Then his body aggressively wiggled and I saw him poop (or what I thought to be poop). He then lost grip so I picked him up and he was absolutely lifeless. I was about to put him back when his eyes opened wide and then his body began to tense up and shake. His limbs curled up as he seized in my hands and then his heart stopped. He turned black within an hour later. I am crushed. It was so painful to watch and I felt evil everytime I had to force-feed him. Also, my juvenile was extremely dark the entire day and as soon as he passed she actually brightened up. I wonder if she could sense his upcoming death. Now, My sixth month old female veiled turns a dark grey, green, brown when I try to feed her or even just look in her enclosure. She is hiding in spots of her enclosure that she never goes to. I never kept the two together. They both have separate enclosures that are not even right next to each other. When I tried to feed her, she hides, gets an unusual color and actually stares at my baby's now empty enclosure. I don't know what is going on with her. Please, please help. I will not know how to act if they both pass within a few days of each other.
