Baby Veiled Chameleon

[NicW]

I recently bought my baby veiled chameleon and have had him for about a week now, he has been doing great all until now he is in and 18x18x30 and he has been staying a greenish brown at the top and has been staying in his basking spot all day....he has only eaten a few crickets while being in this state..Any ideas on what I could fix?
•Has a dripper
•Misted twice a day
•Moss substrate
•Vines with live and fake plants
•A uvb bulb
•Daylight bulb

Welcome to the forums. Great place for great advice.
First off, remove the substrate. It could pose a risk to your Cham, eating it and becoming impacted. Clear bottom or paper towels are better and much easier to clean.
