I have a panther chameleon that is about 4 or 5 months old and have a quick question. When he is climbing, for example when i get him out to clean his cage and he climbs up onto my hand, he sometimes makes a little 'huff' noise.
I am aware of URIs and i am just wondering if this is likely to be the start of a URI or is it just him exerting a little bit of air when he is lifting himself up, as it is only when he stretches a bit to lift himself up. It may sound mad but compared to myself, if i was lifting myself up with my top half of my body only, i am pretty sure i would make a bit of a huffing noise lol.
If needed i will post my entire set up but i just wondered if it is likely to be something to worry about as just to walk through the doors of my local reptile vets is £60 (roughly $120) without treatment.
What are peoples ideas on this?
