What is chronic dehydration, and what should make you call the vet at once?

A poorly designed drinking system (a water bowl in place of a dripper／mister); it is the foremost cause of disease in chameleons. You will see sunken eye sockets, loss of skin elasticity and refusal to feed. The direction of management is fluid replacement assessed by a veterinarian, and severe cases are an emergency. This row belongs to the group in the source chapter that needs prompt attention; the actual judgement still rests with a veterinarian case by case, and this text gives no drug names or doses.

What is egg binding／dystocia, and what should make you call the vet at once?

Females lay eggs even without mating, and this is a common cause of death. You will see persistent digging at the ground without being able to lay. The direction of management is that this is an emergency and veterinary care must be sought immediately. This row belongs to the group in the source chapter that needs prompt attention; the actual judgement still rests with a veterinarian case by case, and this text gives no drug names or doses.

What causes metabolic bone disease (MBD) and what matters most in preventing it?

Calcium deficiency and lack of UVB. You will see softening of the bones and weakness of the limbs. Prevention rests on adequate UVB and calcium powder supplementation. The treatment direction must be assessed by a veterinarian case by case; this text gives no drug names or doses.

This record notes the source location and content hash of "Chameleon｜10 Common Diseases (cause → signs → examination → treatment direction → prevention)", so the text can be checked against the original.

How to use this record to verify

This record exists so that anyone can check for themselves whether the text has been altered. Every chapter of the veterinary encyclopaedia carries a starting line number and a content hash (the first 16 characters of its SHA-256). Recompute the hash over the original chapter: if it matches the value recorded below, what is published here is identical to the source chapter. The source list at the end is the authoritative material cited by that chapter — a chapter-level correspondence, meaning those sources underpin the chapter as a whole rather than mapping sentence by sentence. This is educational information and cannot replace a practising veterinarian; in an emergency, seek care immediately.

This record notes the source location of "Chameleon｜10 Common Diseases (cause → signs → examination → treatment direction → prevention) | Evidence chain": the section beginning at line 203 of `23-T4-爬蟲兩棲.md` in the veterinary encyclopaedia. The SHA-256 of that section (first 16 characters) is `d43b595e97728038`, which anyone can recompute to confirm the content has not been altered.
