Chameleon Not Eating
alright I have a question. My veild has been looking depressed latley and I think its due to the cold front we are getting here. Hes not eating, well it seems to me hes not because I am never around after I feed him. I feed him Crickets and Meal Worms and for a treat at night I give him wax worms. He drinks everytime I mist him. But for some reason I have been finding him chilling on the floor. Is there anything that can boost his appitite?

Check his temps and make sure his UV light is new enough- flourescents are only good for 3-6 months. If his temps are ok, get him in to a vet ASAP. Hanging out on the floor is a bad sign, and chams are slow to show symptoms. Try to find a vet that's familiar with chams, as they are different from most other reptiles and much more delicate.

I would take him to a vet but basicly anything a vet can tell me I have already read. A lot of them around here are ignorant. I think hes coming back to life after I created a formula of water, multi vitamins dust and a lot of glucos. That should give him his energy back to eat. So Im moving him into a bigger encloser. I just hope this will help. If anyone has any ideas please share anything helps. Thanks agian
