You said..."i hoped you would respond i have been reading your threads for months and have learned lots - Very impressive"...thanks for the compliments...but I feel I have so much more to learn.



You said.."Tazicef was first abix of choice - when he wasn't responding in 48h the vet and i decided he was either a gone or try a wide spectrum abix being baytril - his wbc count was 12 thousand slightly elevated and he becoming anemic from sq fluids - after giving baytril and b12 shot he had a remarkabkle turn around and ate and drank the next day but that was short lived"...I don't really know what to say about this right now.



You said..."i follow the gut load you have recommended - hell i spend more time with crickets than anything"...you mentioned egg and bee pollen...which I don't use. Egg yolk should have prEformed vitamin A in it. (Not saying you shouldn't use these things but you will have to take it into consideration.)



You said..."I was using Rep-Cal for dusting bu Nekton for multiviamin"...I used to use Nekton years ago but had problems with MBD when I did. Of course, I did other things differently back then too, so I can't really put the blame on the Nekton with absolute certainty. If the formula hasn't changed, it has prEformed vitamin A in it and I'm pretty sure that there is D3 in it too.



You said.."Just aggrivated and stuck with the personal decision if i want to start over"...I understand.



There is lots to learn about keeping chameleons and many chameleon species have quite different requirements...although one can learn a lot from reading and skip a lot of the mistakes that might be made if one didn't do the reading, there is still a learning curve.
