update can't tell if better

Got the new cage and made the switch from the cham cantina to the 18 by 30 reptibreeze. It's definitely easier to moderate temp and humidity. I noticed he won't eat out of the feeder only out of my hand. He also hasn't gained any weight so far and his mbd is looking pretty bad. Not sure what else I can do. How long until you guys normally see mbd improvement and weight gain? I've had him for about two months now.

Take him to see a chameleon specialist vet,so they can tell u how serious is the MBD conditions,make sure u using the right calcium supplements scheduled along with the proper uvb lighting.
Feeding him with proper gutloaded feeders as much as he can consume if the weight gain is the issue.
Do a fecal test just to make sure he is healthy.

MBD needs vet care. Your Cham needs a calcium shot and or liquid Calcium that only a vet can give. Your other option would be to find a rescue that can take him and give him the vet care he needs.
