Looking at it now based on you saying maybe he thinks it's a snake, that might be it because he's comfortable walking on it while it's still as this video suggests.

I am not sure. This is the rope I have https://www.instagram.com/p/Bd5b_bclSeB/
I doubt it though because it's in his cage and he walks on it. I used to have a different free range setup with the same rope and he didn't have the same reaction. I'll see if I can post a video.
He is 1 yr and 5 months old. He usually doesn't get this territorial even in his cage, which is why I found this strange. I understand they can be moody but didn't expect him to attack me over a rope. There are also knots on each end and he will grab it with his mouth and move it further into...
Hi all,
Since yesterday, my veiled has been showing some weird territorial behavior. I'd like to reduce his stress level as much as possible and need ideas of other things I can do.
I generally let him come out of his cage on his own and once he does, I'll let him come on to my hand and take...
I was thinking that as well, drying out his eye. I think I'll just discontinue using it at him. I used to use a dripper but eventually stopped because it broke. I didn't use a new one because his urates are white now.
Yes he is dehydrated which was observed by my vet. I am attempting various things to keep him hydrated, such as, feeding him fruits and veges, gut loading his insects with high nutrient foods (collard greens, kale, carrots, squash, apples, etc.) and he has 20-10 min misting sessions 5 times a...
I take my veiled to the living room tree next to a window with a heater towards him. Yesterday around 3:30am I noticed one of his eyes were barely open. I couldn't see if there was anything inside. I found him rubbing it against a branch he was sitting on when he should have been asleep. I was...
Thanks everyone for the feedback. I wasn't sure how harmful this behavior can be and didn't realize he may develop it over time even though he's been around that area multiple times. I have fixed up a free range elsewhere for him and kept him away from there that doesn't stress him our.
Hi everyone,
I couldn't find a post regarding this on the forums. Sorry if there already is one.
My chameleon will often walk along the curtain rod and against that wall there are lights on a setting where you can see your reflection. He's been in this area many times but recently he's been...
