Reptile & Amphibian Forums

i have a 5 month old female, that isnt doing very well, shes prety active, but doesnt eat and almost always keeps her eyes closed. i cant figure it out. i mist her every day and eveything, temps, humidity, uv, basking, everythings fine. she hasnt eaten in two weeks and i cant figure it out. she knows where the crickets are too. any help would be great.

I know you say everything is OK but you may be missing something that one of us can spot. Can you give specifics as to lighting (brand/hours on), supplementation/diet, water source (dripper)
was this a sudden occurence? have you changed anything lately? Can she see any other animals?

basking temp 95, regular temp 75, mercury vapor uv Powersun bulb, dripper on top, reptarium, no drafts, shes in a space in my room and i have this sheet in front of her and i close it so she doesnt see my bearded dragon that i have on the otehr side and so the air conditioner doesnt give her a cold draft. theres enough air circulation going around though. i feed her crickets every day but latley she hasnt been eating, no sudden changes really, nothing that would have spooked her or anything. her eyes just are always shut, she can open them but doesnt alot and it worries me. today she fell out of her tree but wasnt that high up and luckily hit the part of the ground in her cage that isnt supported by wood, i have 2 tables that i put her on and theres a little gap between.

well that doesn't sound too good. have you tried to feed her something other than crickets? Maybe some waxworms? What do you do for supplements? Calcium and vitamins?

I don't know what to tell you about the eyes beign closed except it is not normal. Does it look like they have something in them, swollen, crusty? There is another forum that deals with health issues for chams you may want ot post there. Do you have a good herp vet?

Chams can go downhill VERY fast compared to other, hardier reptiles. It sounds like she should have been seen by a professional a long time ago. Closed eyes may not only signal an ocular infection, but could also be a sign that your cham is in pain. In either case, if you don't take her to a vet soon and get some PRESCRIPTION medication, she will probably die. Hope this helps, good luck.
