Does Anyone Else's Chameleon Do This?

[GodsSpeed]

His sire is Bolt. He was born 7-18-11. Can't wait for him to start to take on color

oh my guy was born on 06-14-11... he has the smallest hints of redish brown on him... and sometimes his white line turns blue...

i can tell hes gona have some serious color when he grows up, or at least a big range... cuz he can turn from like black to white and everyshade of gray and brown inbetween

LOL! Thats adorable. My little ones do it, too.

Just the other day when Peaches was free ranging outside on her tree, she saw a bird like 50-100 yards up. She QUICKLY turned to the other side of the branch as if it were covering her. She then peeked her head out to see if the bird had gone. It was cute.

That's what was going on here. I was shooting photos and my dog came over to watch.

[Robyrango]

Funny! My ambilobe does it too.. On a branch tho, he's ok if I handle him.. About the camera, he may hide or pose, depends on the mood!

Hyde has hated my camera since the day he came home. I've only been able to shoot him at night

Nice. Right now, Flash is showing blues on his face. Pretty cool.

 

[Banders675]

i call it

I call it the lean my veiled used to do it I'd go one way he'd lean to the other thinking I couldnt see him I'd go the other way and he'd lean back again. I guess they are just trying to hide if something 70 times your size was staring at you wouldn't you want to hide.

Hey, this is my first post, and ive had my red bar ambilobe chameleon, Boba, for about 2 months now... and he is really shy around stuff! My camera, me, anything that he finds weird... lol

He rarely gets angry... he's very well behaved!

He is almost 5 months old and purchased from Screameleons!

if that is 5 months then I am seriously doubting my cham could be as young as 7 months... I adopted her from a friend who rescues all sorts of reptiles so I know nothing about her...

suffice to say, your cham is so small and adorable! Love it! Mine five times bigger and I cannot touch her at all I wish she would hang out on my fingers!

 

[Bernie]

I believe the term to be called "shadowing"

Both of my Chams do it from time to time

 

[bechsgaard]

i wouldnt worry about it, its just unfamiliar to him

thanks yeah hes very friendly most of the time... but he gets cranky in the evening cuz all he wants to do is sleep.

keep associating your hands with bringing food and water and your chameleon will probably warm up to you eventually! they love you when you bring da noms.
