The one i found first (Vishnu) was horrifying. His eyes were gone his mouth was open, his usually fat belly was flat as a leaf, the skin under his jaw was falling off the bones so you could see the roof of his mouth from below, and his belly was torn open a little and the cloaca was festering, and he smelled like death... But i didn't notice until later because i was crying so hard. I immediately started looking for the other two and found another body not far from the first. It was Sita, the only girl and the youngest, and she looked like she had died overnight... I was so upset... She was my favorite. But i was so relieved when i found the third alive and apparently well....
I think they died of a fungal infection, so i took the other one to the vet because Sita obviously died of exposure to Vishnu, and the other (Kartikeya) is susceptible to the same thing. The vet gave me antibiotics and told me to clean out his tank (so there goes my weekend). He's back in his tank now, and it's sooo empty in there :c he's staying up near the top i think because it smells on the ground where i found the others. Smart dude. The two that died were Sita, the only girl and the sweetest and cutest (and likely the youngest) of the whole lot, and Vishnu, the big guy that was gentle and seemed to be the oldest of the lot. I buried them... They will be sorely missed, by me and kartikeya both :c
R.I.P. Vishnu, Rhampholeon temporalis
R.I.P. Sita, Rieppeleon brevicaudatus
Sita and Vishnu have both been buried now, and hopefully they can find peace, on that rainbow bridge where all pets go. I cannot express how much I will miss them.
