Chameleon Back inverted after shipping.

[samschams123]

Hello,

I recently bought 7 panther chameleons. When they arrived at my house their back were inverted almost as if they had been squished. They are two months old btw. The breeder said it was normal although I have never seen anything like that in my life. They could not even walk until I straightened them out very gently. A week later 6 of them were dead. Could this have cause the deaths

I have no idea what you are talking about. Inverted back? I have never witnessed this during shipping. You have any pics?

It wouldn't be "normal" for 6 out of 7 to die so quickly unless they were deformed, unhealthy, way too young to be sold, mishandled, or exposed to extreme conditions during shipping. I'd be on the breeder big time!!!
