Yes, he/she can close eyes. I misted the tank down good, and he/she washed/flushed out both eyes good. It just looks so bazaar next to any other chameleon of equal size.

Wow this is really strange. I wonder what a vet would think of it!

The cham looks so healthy otherwise.
You clearly have taken great care of him.
I hope you keep him so he can freak you out each day.

Born in the first part of Feb.. Marty is small and has'nt really grown to much. But still feeding, and still crazy eyes.

So cute Maybe it will be like those other onces that don't really grow until they are like 6 months.

Is Marty still putting on weight? When he sleeps do his eyes close all the way? I guess all I can say is stop worrying and let him be what he is. There isn't much you can do about it anyway.

Wow that is one wild looking eye! I have never seen one like that, but I recently had a clutch and one of the hatchlings came out with only 1 eye, the other eye didn't develope at all. It died a couple days after hatching also.

Marty is growing very slowly. She got a upgade to larger cage over the weekend. So will hopeful she will grow into her bigger digs. I forget if she sleeps with eyes closed, or not. I knew that answer awhile back, but would only be guessing now. I'll have to look tonight.

It kind of looks like a human eye...
