Shedding in-process

They look better and better after each shed. You'll have to post some post shed photos of him.

It's basically opening up a present every month until they become adults, then it's presents every few months

The feeder food bill shall see a slightly decrease once he is a full grown adult,but the poop will become larger and easier to find

Still a few small bits of old skin lingering around, but he's pretty much done now.

I had to share one more post-shedding picture from a minute ago... Looks like he's thinking "Don't you dare touch me!"

Yellow too!?!

how old and how big is he from head to tail ?

He's ~5 months old (i.e. hatched in the August - September 2015 timeframe) and I estimate about 9-10 inches from the tip of his nose to the tip of his tail.

Hmm... 5.5" including tail length?

I feed my Chameleon: Dubias, Super worms, Horn worms, and Crickets.

My guy eats a lot of gut loaded crickets each day, but won't touch any worms I try to feed him. I've tried butter worms silkworms and hornworms, but he doesn't go for them

I think my guy is going through a growth spurt tho he has grown 1 inch in the new new year already

How did you get him to eat worms

 

[NERVOUS]

How did you get him to eat worms

Honestly, I just place the intended food item near my Chameleon (on a branch, in a pair of large tweezers, etc) and let Nature do the rest... It's like having a front row seat to a National Geographic documentary!

Holy smokes! He's a beauty!
