Cameleo chameleon
Mediterranean type
I have it for 2 months
Net cage 30×30×45
Feeding with mealworms and crickets and roaches. + d3 powder and calcium .
 
My cham got a spot like that on his face near his mouth. I thought it was feces from the hornworms he had eaten but it didnt wash off. It didnt bother him and went away after a few weeks. i think their skin is very unique and may react to things by changing colors. But that is just my theory.
 
Your best bet is to fill out the form thst was given to you so one of the wonderful cham members can go over everything with you. So often the pet stores will sell you stuff that is not right for these creatures and they tend to hide issues until they are way out of hand. This is the right forum for you to get advice.
