Sick Veiled Help

[danish72]

2 year old male veiled chameleon was fine until just now. We have had him for 18 months. Eyes sunken in and closed, staying black and has white around his mouth. We have proper lighting that was just changed last month and proper vitamin routine with each meal. He eat fine last night.

You need to get him to a vet asap. Its important to do this as quickly as possible.

In the meantime, can you answer the questions in the "how to ask for help thread" at the top of the health forum? Please be specific about things like the supplements, UVB light, etc.

agree with kinyonga. get him to a vet asap. sunken, closed eyes is a bad combo.
