Sorry you are having a hard time. I suggest you wait for replys, and I think there will be a few. And listen to all the suggestions and hopefully we can help you find out what is wrong with your little one. I have no experience with senegals but many on here do. It could be something very simple you need to change to help your baby. Just hang on in there and dont let anyone put you off.

Well...we're getting there.
We need to know what your supplements are. Fluckers makes many.
This board recommends plain calcium without D3 every day, calcium with D3 2x per month, a multi vitamin 2x per month.
If you are not following a schedule close to that then this may be part of the problem.
You did not tell us what the temperature range is in the cage. We would like to know the temperature at the basking spot (in the top 6 to 8 inches of the cage), the middle of the cage and the floor of the cage if possible. Minimally, the temperature at the basking spot and the floor of the cage are important. There should be a substantial range (15 to 20 degrees) between the two and the bottom of the cage really should not be above room temperature.
If your cage is too hot it can cause your chameleon problems.

Hi. I wonder if english is your first language? You have been asked numerous qiestions but havnt fully answered. I am not knowledgable on senegals but i will try to pinpoint what people want to know.
Dont use 2.0. 5.0 is enough
Your lights need to be on 12 hrs and off 12 hrs so no light at night
Spraying fot 30 secs 3 times a day in my opinion is not enough
Mealworms are hard to digest so perhaps ypu could add some crickets to start with
These feeders need to be gutloaded. That is whatever you feed your insects will go into your cham. If you dont feed them well they will not benefit your cham
Supplements are what you dust your insects. Fluckers is a name but can you read the name on container and tell us how often you use it or them.

We cannot help you if you dont give us the info we need. I urge you to answer the few questions i have posted to start with and lets see how it goes. I dont think anyone is mad at you. If you can help us to understand your set up etc then we might be in a position to help your cham which is what you requested at the begining.

my cham keeps sleeping
If you properly filled out the form, and typed in normal english in the first place, I guarantee you would have already had a solution to your problem. From the very little information you have informed us with, it seems that you may have overdosed your Chameleon with vitamin D. Refill out the how to ask for help form properly and we will go from there. If you won't cooperate, then we won't try to help you.

omg i did give info look at all the pages
Yes you did but there are specific things we need to know. While you keep arguing your cham is no near to getting help. In this forum the animal comes first not the owner! You are coming accross as if you know everything. That being the case why are you asking for help. You may leave it till its too late for anyone to help by arguing all the time.

sense everybody is getting mad at me for using multi vites i just use calcium with d3
You ask for help, but you ignore it when given.
There you go. I've given you the recommended supplement schedule and information on temperatures which should be helpful to you. Twice now.

I understand that you are just a kid, however, you need to cooperate with those who have been trying to help you, I have been looking at this forum for the last bit, and there is absolutely no information that is beneficial that you have given that will help us help to your chameleon! You need to fill out the form that has been posted several times now, and do it specifically, as in answer every question to the exact detail. Nobody will be able to significantly help you if you do not do what is asked. If you keep arguing and being difficult, the time that we have to help your chameleon is going to run out and you may not save him. Give us the information we have requested and we can help you. Chameleons come first on this forum, and what is frustrating everyone who has posted is that you are coming across as a difficult child, who doesn't really want to help his chameleon. Now, I am not trying to bully you or be rude, disrespectful, etc, but you need to cooperate if you truly love your cham, and want to save him. As of right now, it seems as if you don't want to save him. Now, fill out the form and we will gladly help you.
