Dreams

so last night my Veild chameleon galaxy fell asleep on my hand I was wondering if chameleons could have dreams? sometimes when he is asleep he looks like he sort of deactivated himself like nothing is going on in his little head. I would appreciate any answers you may have thank you
 
I remember some studies on REM sleep in reptiles that were inconclusive at best, so to think they can dream isn't "likely". I definitely believe that there are brain activities, but probably not dreams like we know them. I'm no expert though and I for one prefer to imagine them having dreams. :)
 
Your chameleon should not be falling asleep on your hand, is he sick, or are you handling him wayyy too much? That's often a sign of a stress overload.
