> I don't over dust if you mean dusting food.

Well neither did I when I first got started.
It's just that the powder gets caked up in their sinus as they have these two plates in their nose where it can collect in this pocket in there.

I've seen the chams try to lick their mouths and clean everything up after eating.... more being fed on dusted (light or not) than non dusted insects. (YMMV)

> I also learned (I think from this sub even) that chameleon puss isn't like human puss - it's hard/firm.

Um, I know I didn't say that.
I think that the person who said that was mistaken
All puss is fluid as it's is formed as part of the immune systems response to infection. "Hard and Firm"
I'm sorry but that's just wrong.
IF anything, it's dried puss that they're referring too.


> the pus kind of came forward/out of the eye but it was more of the consistency of spray foam which is why it ended up having to be flushed.

I wonder if you did this flushing yourself?
I spent a few hours talking to Scott Stahl a few months ago and his opinion of eye flushing is one thing when he does it.
Its very much a "do not do" for the owner to attempt.

Thanks for the images.

Yes I've seen those in the past.
I view it as a sinus infection / ulceration and the infection of the eye orbits is a common complication.

That's also a rather swollen eye there.
I would have also hit that hard with something that did cover gram positive and negative bacteria (frothy discharge might be yeast)
and for something that deep into the orbit (with a sinus infection) I would have gone oral vs injections into the muscle. Once again Baytril is kinda my "go too" when if these pop up and it hits both the G +/- bacteria

> That's really awesome you've done so much research and have done so much for the community by helping bring it all together.

Thanks, I've certainly put in my 10,000 hours.
