Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - Panther | Female | 9 months old | 3 months in my care
Handling - Not often but sometimes. She calms down a lot once shes in my hands.
Feeding - Crickets gutloaded with cricket crack along with dubia roaches.
Supplements - I do 4 parts calcium no d3 1 part calcium with d3 and another part multivitamin.
Watering - I have a monsoon water system probably 3-4 times a day misting. I see her drink sometimes. Her poop indicates she is hydrated.
Fecal Description - Not a lot of poop as she hasn't been eating much at all. Her urate is white though. She has not been tested for parasites.
History - She's been on baytril for 5 days now. The vet wasn't sure exactly what it was but thought it could be bacterial. I've seen her eat twice and she had three crickets today. The problem is she either misses them a lot or she shoots her tongue out too far simply knocking the cricket off the vine.
Cage Info:
Cage Type - Dragonstrand medium tall breeding cage.
Lighting - Arcadia 6% under six months old. 12 hours lights on 12 off.
Temperature - Temp in my room is around 77 degrees outside of the tank. About 85-95 in basking area.
Humidity - Just checked and its 29% in my room. I literally just bought a nice big humidifier. Should be up there in a while.
Plants - I'm not using live plants.
Placement - The cages are 4 feet off the floor.
Location - The northeast US.
Current Problem - She's still not eating much. Her second day on baytril i saw her eat two crickets. I didn't see her eat any more till today which is day 5 and I believe she's had four today. I may be missing her eat at night. She misses sometimes when shooting her tongue. She waves her hands at branches that are too far away for her to grasp. She will shoot her tongue at a cricket on a branch and its like she's extending it too far just knocking it off the vine rather than hitting it and pulling back immediately. It's like her depth perception is off. She also has one eye closed sometimes. What's also odd is her colors aren't really dark. She has calm colors most of the time.
I also have another panther which has a sore in his mouth that the vet said was most likely from a cricket biting him while he was eating it and he has been on baytril. He's eating normally and has no eye problems / depth perception problems. He just shows colors that are a few shades darker than usual.
Update again | She's eaten 6/7 crickets today with none that I know of since 4 days ago. She still has the depth perception problem. All crickets eaten must be within 2 inches of her for her to hit them. She barely grabs them at 2 inches.
Update: She's using the vine to scratch her eyes. Don't see how it could be bacterial since she's been on baytril 5 days now.
