New Cham from LLLREPTILE

[KingstonX]

Drone you are right, i have decided to keep him to see if he can pull though, he will drink but will not eat, should i perhaps manually feeding him? Would i use like baby food or a liquid calcium?
If he is sick Vitamin A is real good for him right?

I would take him to the store. You will become attached to the new one and perhaps they will even let you keep the sick one for free. That happened to me with a baby vieled with MBV. It wasn't bad and she is now master of her cage....and 1 year old.

dude, if they will exchange the animal do it. Don't just hope he'll get better because if he dies in a week they won't give you your money back.

I too would suggest to swap. LLL does not normally trade ANYTHING when it comes to chams. They have no guarantee, so if they are offering you it, I would jump on it. Stressful environments can kill any animal and with them being at the show(a high stress environment) and him not showing improvment today, I would jump on the chance of getting another....

Can't return him and keep him at the same time.

LLL has been pretty good about sick animals with me. They replaced my dead beardie when it died 3 days after purchasing it from them.

well hopefully thats the ONLY problem .... then the guy might have a chance... lol you saved the live worm huh?

Clean the cage thoroughly so that the next one doesnt pick anything up from the sick one

I didn't mean that cause he pooped out a worm its over... I meant you would definately need to go to a vet and get medication imo. Or take it back and let them deal with it.

And I'd like to see a photo of that worm!

and what Sandra said ^^
