I was shocked to see a little cricket carrier with a pathetic looking tiny orange/pink chameleon inside when my boyfriend came over tonight. He rescued it from one of his friends who is being evicted tonight and was going to just leave it there to die. He "sold" it to my boyfriend for $20. They've had it for a "few months" and it's in horrible condition. Supposedly it's a Panther Chameleon but I don't know if he's correct. I honestly don't think he's going to make it. I have NO space for him with all my babies, but there's no way I could resist him.
You can see his every bone, he's so weak he can barely hang onto his branches and his tail is SO paper thin and has no muscle tone. He ate 3 mealworms while my boyfriend had him, and on the way over to my house he pooped and threw up everything he ate. Ever since then, he hasn't opened his eyes once. He's still breathing, but looks like he wants to die
I feel so bad, I hope I can help him pull through this. I don't have any cham experience though. For now, lights are out and hopefully in the morning he'll feel slightly more refreshed.
Any prayers, tips, etc are appreciated. After he's in full health, he will need a home. Or if someone out there is comfortable with rehabbing him, I'd be willing to let him to go someone sooner.
Here he is before lights out:
