double stress

[alil]

Hello, I just posted a pic of my new Jackson cham yesterday. Well I got him at a bad time for him. Not only is he dealing with relocation stress but he also began shedding. I hope this does not effect him too much.

He should be fine. Just give him his space during the next 2-3 weeks and let him settle in. If he is young he should shed within a day.

I am sure he will be fine. He seems to not be moving much until he was ready to go to sleep about 30 mins before lights out.

patience, love and good records will help him live a long healthy life!

keep track of his shed intervals, that helps me a lot.
if they go off schedule i know to pay close attention
to supplements and feeding

Great news he ate today. I usually cup feed my chameleons by holding the cup for them. He went inside the cup ate most of the crickets and turned a lime green color for a bit. I think he will be fine.

Glad to hear he is eating and looking more himself already!

Sounds like your cham is doing fine.
He would likely not have climbed into the cup while you were holding it
unless he trusted you.
And lime green = happy

I came home from a trip to the store and he looks asleep sideways at 5 in the after noon/night. His color was a lime green until I woke him up. I don't know if he is sick so ill keep an eye on him. BTW I went and got a 15 watt bulb since he is in a small cage and anything more to me would heat the inside of the cage too much. His cage at the moment is in a dark area of the living room/kitchen so he propbably thought it was night time.
