My panthers tongue is hangin out.

Please help, Ive had my noseybe for almost 2 yrs now with very few problems. Today when I saw him half his tongue was hanging out when I picked him up he started to throw up his tongue and then bite it. He is still active and all and yesterday I fed him 12 crickets and he used his tongue fine. Whats happening?

I've never kept chameleons, but I have read in journals that one possible reason is a lack of calcium in the diet for strong bones and muscles. If he's not getting enough supplementation, a lack of muscle control could slowly but eventually follow. Suggest you see a vet asap before the problem gets worse to the point that he can't eat.

Hello,

Oh sorry you are having trouble with your chameleon.
What type of supplementation are you giving? They are prone to vitamin A deficiencies or problems, in general with vitamin A. Also, thiamin deficiency can also cause trouble with muscular function such as catching prey.
Let us know how your cham is doing.
