Hi-
If your chameleon has MBD you should see a vet about getting NeoCalglucon and dosing the proper amount. This is a liquid form of calcium that the body can easily absorb faster then other forms of calcium to help stop any more further damage. This is a oral treatment. If your chameleon can not feed on his own on top of the MBD then I defiantly would recommend a vet visit. Hope this helps!
