2 free panther chameleons that need rehabbing

Allison Park PA

Description

We have 2 sick chameleons that we took in because they were going to be euthanized otherwise. I cannot keep them because I cannot risk them getting my other reptiles sick and I currently have them in a separate part of the home. One has mouth rot and needs a solution of peroxide mixed with water 2x daily. It’s pretty bad but it can still eat fine and shoot it’s tongue and everything. The other one has the same condition and also an eye infection. So in addition to applying the peroxide solution it will also need eye drops. Pretty sure the antibiotic turtle eye drops from the pet store should clear it up. I have some on hand I can send. Treatment is challenging because neither of them are very friendly (typical chameleon personality). They will also both need linear UVB bulbs (5T 10.0 uvb- must be exactly this kind- they got sick partly because the owner had them under the wrong type of lights) and basking lights (this can just be an incandescent 65 watt bulb that gets hot). I can send them in the cages I received them in but do not have extra lights or light fixtures. They also need proper supplements dusted on their food at each feeding and I can send some with them to last you a while. The other reason they got sick was due to incorrect supplementation so this is also very important. Both are eating with no problem. Really hoping to get these 2 into a good home with someone who can care for them very soon.
