Only time will tell, how each chameleon will deal with handling. Some enjoy coming out of their cage and tolerate us keepers and some prefer to be left alone in their cage. If it gives you the signs that he wants to come out, by all means, let him out :D
I'm sure if you're lurking around a chameleon forum, you intend on purchasing a chameleon. Once you get one, photograph it and enter it into the monthly chameleon photo contest :D
Has anyone ever used these in an enclosure for a Panther before? I bought a few since I couldn't find my normal Ficus or Umbrella plants and was in need of something. It doesn't show to be a toxic plant online, but just wondering how they will do in an enclosure.
