Stella went to the vet today.
She rode on the bandana.
Her eyes were poofy and I believed them to be infected.
The vet was:
Coady A. Haga DVM
Animed Veterinary Hospital
Hubert, NC 28539
(910)-353-2502
He was knowledgable, and seemed familiar with chameleons, but had not seen a xanth before.
I was very happy with his demeanor, and his handling of her.
He was easy to talk to, and didnt blow off anything I had to say.
Overall, I would recommend him.
He examined her eyes and looked her over well.
Asked a lot about her husbandry.
No test of any kind were done.
She weighed in at exactly 2.5oz on an empty stomach.
He said her eyes looked great.
He said the swelling is from edema.
She has noticable gular edema.
She was over supplemented a while back, and when I stopped supps I think I may have stopped for too long.(1.5months)
(At least on beta-carotine/vit A)
So this makes some sense.
He said up the amount of carrots and squash in my gutload, and it will go away.
All healthy all around other than the edema.
He said it was minor, and caught early.
He was sure it wasnt an infection of any kind.
Just the edema.
Everything is wonderful about her and her behavior.
Just the swollen eyes/gular area.
If any one has anything to say, on the diagnosis, or on bringing her vit A up Im all ears.
