Recently I started playing this weird and stupid game called Goat Simulator. I know this has nothing to do with the thread but I thought I'd point it out:D

It's totally normal. I know for sure I went through what you're going through. But as long as you take proper care of your child (chameleon), there's absolutely nothing to be worried about :)
Mine went through this huge emotional swing as well. One day he was chill and the next he starts acting extremely aggressive. He's calmed down recently but still hates the stick. I'm still waiting for him to go back to his old self -_-
Today hit my region of southern ontario harder. Went down to -12 degrees and now I've got a 7.5 cm thick layer of snow in my backyard. I don't know how my community was missed but we definitely were hit harder today. Neighbourhood kids buckling up in their snowpants and winter jackets and I'm...
Thanks guys! The information was very helpful and I think I'm all set. I'm leaning really heavily toward a pair of Russian tortoises now. Going to save up for the proper materials and hopefully I'll be able to start building an outdoor DIY tortoise enclosure in the spring.:D
Thanks again...
:eek: That's quite a lot of chelonians you've owned! Are there any special diet, lighting or environment requirements?
And how big of an enclosure would they need at adult size?
Sorry for the flood of questions

The posters above me have given very good advice and information. It looks like his eyes are a tiny bit sunken, but that could be fixed with proper hydration. He's showing early signs of MBD and with some extensive care and vet attention I think he could be an amazing rescue:)
Unless you're looking to save some unfortunate animals, I would personally never buy chameleons from big brand stores such as petco or petsmart. All the best wishes for you chameleon, I hope he turns out ok!
Live food is the only food most chameleons will eat and pinkies in general have too much protein and fat for a chameleon. Take a look at this; it should help https://www.chameleonforums.com/care/food/
