I never just grab him, I have hand fed him a lot but if I ever remove him from his enclosure, I have a stick I place by him and he climbs on then I remove him on the stick. I don’t want him to think I’m going to squish him! Haha
These are the readings currently in my office in the corner he’d go, shows highs and lows and current over the last two days, I also have a little heater I could run if needed. My office is pretty small, not a huge room
So over all you guys think everything’s normal and he’s just being a little crazy today? I’ve just seen different things about chameleons climbings and “trying to escape” means something’s not right
Thank you! As for the temps, we keep our house at about 70, and turn it down to 67 at night. So in his cage using a digital thermometer/ hygrometer placed midway in his cage, I’ve seen it drop to as low as 67 but durning the day as high as 73

Hello everyone! So recently (last day or two) my guy has been going crazy climbing all over his cage, top to bottom side to side. Using all his vines and branches as well as screen climbing. I haven’t changed anything in his cage or bothered him all that much. He fell as well my wife told me, I...
I’m using the Fluker’s feed and crystals for the crickets if that’s what you’re asking :)
And I agree with a vet visit I suppose, I’ve taken so much care to study and research extensively on this guy to feel like I’ve done something wrong, but I hate seeing him act like this, it’s not fun 🥺...

I don’t think I’ve done a full one in one place, but have managed to in different posts combined I’m sure haha, and he’s shed three times since I’ve had him, I’ve never noticed anything like that or anything that seems to be a breathing problem, just an occasional wide open mouth yawn.
