Finally handled! (Pics)

So its been almost 3 weeks since I got him and he's always so shy. I've been putting my hand in every once in a while to try to get him used to me. He never would hand feed tho no matter what I held in front of him. I held out the container that he came in as a last resort. To my surprise, he went into it. I pulled the container out of the cage, laid down on my bed and place the container sideways on my stomach. He climbed out and on to my arm and sat there looking at me. I walked him on my hands for a little bit and then let him do a little FR in my room and on my little palm I have. He seemed a little uneasy still but no signs of stress! His color remained the same and he never puffed up or flapped his neck! I feel so much closer!

Tell me how he looks. He seems a little skinny to me but idk.

Well done mission acomplished :) mine hand fed within days but hes still a little shy how old is yours?
 
Wow, awesome. :)

Polka dots are a good way to tell if your chameleon is either 1) ready to sleep 2) stressed. Usually dark polka dots during handling means they are still getting used to you. Every time I try and handle Monty he gets SUPER contrasted dots all over. :p

Looks good actually
 
Is he 5 months old..or have you had him for 5 months. When I first got my male veiled a little over a month ago I was told he was about 3 or 4 months. So I would guess hes ~5 mos now and hes nowhere near as big. The casque isnt even close.

Im wondering if I should up his food some more.

I got him when he was like 4.5 months old and I've had him for three weeks on Tuesday. So he is about 5 months old. And I have put more food up for him. I have a feeder cup of butter worms and a separate one for crickets. :p
