Posted by: xanthoman at Mon Jun 8 21:23:40 2009 [ Report Abuse ] [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by xanthoman ] best thing to do is start right away with things you can do now , you know how when you get p o'd you dont feel like eating,chams are the same way , they just dont get over thing as easily, i would start with the assumption it doesnt like its cage , just because it looks cool to you, does not mean it looks cool to a cham , also keep it extra humid until the problem passes, i would do every thing i could to increase humidity ,make sure it has plenty of cham freindly live plantings,cut down on the bright lights, no cham is going to die because it misses a week of light ,and shy chams, are often freaked out by too much light , and dont use cfl's too much light in too concentrated a spot, be sure its hydrated, dehydrated chams often just give up, so get it hydrated even if you have to p it off, and then squirt in its mouth with a spray bottle when it gapes(careful they can drown real easily),and if its not eating, give it less food not more, i have a gravid jacksons thats a super healthy eater, but if i put too much in her dish or use too big of feeders , she just walks too the other side of the cage and stresses, so go with a single feeder, whatever you use, go i/2 size ,if you can get any food or water in it, start reptaid , if you have to you can do the squirt trick with a syringe (no needle) and give it plenty of peace and quite, dont keep it in a tv room,or a high traffic room. and if you dont have the means to do a fecal yourself, then take a sample to the vet , you can get a 400x -usb microscope viewer on ebay for $75, gut load your feeders with prunes (temporarily)in case of impaction, if any of this stuff works you can slowly ramp things back up to normal , if it doesn't ,you need to get to a herp vet or at least micro a fecal yourself ASAP,thats about all i got, so drop me a line and let me know how it is going, [ Reply To This Message ] [ Subscribe to this Thread ] [ Hide Replies ]
