New Member: Vet Question

[NinaCorrine]

Hello,
I have recently inherited a senegal chameleon. A neighbor bought him as a pet and he wasnt " thriving". Maximus is aprox 4 months old or so I have been told. He is improved quite a bit in the two weeks he has been in my care. I made an appointment with a veterinarian who specializes in reptiles for a check up and a fecal exam. I just want to be sure he doesnt have an underlying conditions and is parasite free. Who should I expect at the vet visit?, What is the average cost of a chameleon vist?, What sort of information should I be able to leave with?

Also, I wanted to start a blog, but wasnt able to.. "access restricted" is this only available to senior members?

Thanks,
NinaCorrine

my vet usually charges around $90 per visit. basically to check parasites bring in some fresh poop and put it in a bag and ask for a fecal exam

Thanks Millerman..
The receptionist said the exam starts at $40 and basicly goes up...I'm hoping I can get out the door for under $100.
