"beer belly"

[nightcrawler]

My male cham seems to have a "beer belly." is he fat or is that normal?
I feed him 6 to 8 crickets a day or 4 and a super. His belly seems to get really fat at his lower stomach. Any ideas?

Matt,

I know exactly what you're talking about and it's perfectly normal.
It's just where everything settles when your chameleon is relaxed.
