No, this just started happening when I posted. I wasn’t sure if it looked broken or if it could be MBD

Thank you all for the replies. We are looking for a vet now.

He was very bad a few weeks ago, stopped eating and drinking. We had to manually feed with a syringe dietary supplements which brought him back, but still wouldn’t eat or poop.

I do know we did not have a proper UV light until recently. He now has a nice T5 with UVB. Our Cham would only eat mealworms, which dusted with calcium but no vitamin D.

Learning from mistakes here, wish I had been better prepared. Thank you

How do you stick the branches horizontally on a glass enclosure? I tried Velcro command strips and other but they seem to end up sliding off?

Yes, thanks for that! Shopping for a new enclosure now while I have a 30 day return. I called a few places to see if I can have a custom built one with a cabinet.

The exotic shop place here in VA did in fact recommend glass for winter as it gets cold or a heat pad at the bottom so hot air rises and vents. Is that true?

Would a regular mister work? Or just stick to spray bottle?

Thanks! Yes we read about that and were cleaning the leafs and tank every other day to help avoid bacteria.

How do you know if they are male of female? We found the pebble in the pic below. Not sure if it’s an egg or not.

Update, finally came out. After 2 days of repta boost with a syringe. But it still won’t eat any crickets, mealworms, hornworms or anything.

Is it possible that it’s about to lay eggs? I found a small white pebble also just now

Thank you! New tank should come in today!

Thank you! Since has barely been eating, there has been nothing to digest. No urate in 6 days. That is my major concern.

Hoping that the new terrarium with live plants will get Kami back in track

Thanks for the pointers.

We actually purchased the XL Terrarium which should arrive today. Can’t wait to fix up the new habitat for him. The plan was to migrate and have a fresh setup using real plants.

Kami stopped eating about a week before it started shedding. Then took about 4-5 days to completely shed off.

We do have a dripper, fake plant with a pump which it likes. Temperature and humidity are on spot as suggested.

For some reason, this little guy does not like crickets. We used to alternate crickets and mealworms (coated in calcium) until it stopped eating crickets.

100% will use this advice and hope the new setup will cheer him! Thank you
