Chameleons are dry shedders and don't need any help. Just make sure as he sheds he doesn't end up with stuck shed around a toe or the tip of his tail (anywhere it could constrict) and let him do his thing. When they are babies they will shed their whole body at once, usually in a matter of...

My guy only eats from a cup too, but when we got him, he had a minor pinworm infection, so I'm not mad about his insistent bathroom time. Haha. I do question who trained who. 😉
