Help!!! Chameleon sleeping issue!!!

[ethan99]

I have two, four month old, veiled chameleons. They are both male, but I am trying to sell one ASAP. One of them sleeps with both of his eyes half-way open?!? Before it was fine and they were both shut. The other one sleeps normally, with his eyes all the way shut. Is this a problem and is there anything I can do about it?

do you have lights on at night near his cage?

 

[ethan99]

There is a dim night light across the room.

try turngint off, it could be keeping him awake.

 

[ethan99]

I'm pretty sure that he was sleeping but i'll try it.

chams shouldnt be sleeping with their eyes open, if you were looking at him, he may have simply woken up, esp if you had turned on a light, used a light, o rshook his cage at all.l

some chams are very light sleeper.s

Okay, thanks! I will try not to have on any lights tonight and see if it helps.

all lights off will see the difference
