I LOST MY CHAMELEON IN A BUSH

[Brodybreaux25]

Maybe get a hose and do a quick squirt of water. With the cold water the chameleon might start moving around enough to see. Try doing sections at a time, not the whole thing.

That’s a damn good idea.

...start at the bottom and work your way up if you diddnt find him last night...

Maybe it's just my cynical mind but if one of my chams was lost in a tree would I

A; Be doing everything I could to find it?

B; Go online and tell people I've lost it and post some pics?

I might post the story afterwards but I'd be way too busy searching to reach for my phone and start posting.

I looked for him for 2 hours and I didnt know what to do and was actually having a panic attack. My phone was 30 miles away because I left in sleepy haze but I started freaking out more because I couldnt go look up what to do. SO I went and got my phone and came back, looked for him some more. Then I had to get ready for work so I put the post up 15 minutes before I had to leave for work because I needed to go. I needed my phone so I could ask for advice because I felt lost.

Have you found him??

 

[LonelyWolfPack]

I did find him!!! Little jericho was very surprised last night when he woke up inside the house. I cut him down from the branch he was on so he didnt wake up and brought him inside. I am posting pictures to give people an idea of what to do if they lose their cham lol

Searching for him at night was a huge help, the moment the light touched his little body he lit up like chinese firecrackers. I was so happy to see him, I instantly grabbed the ladder and the clippers then got him down haha

(The preview is giving me double pictures so hopefully it doesnt do that because I only added 1 pic per scene)

 

[LonelyWolfPack]

The pictures glitched out -.-

Happy you found him. Sounds like he was really on an adventure if you found him in a completely different area

I think he had a blast xD i'm glad I got him last night because after getting him it was thunderstorms and rain with a chilly 50°F

Glad you found him. I always recommend getting a small cage with a good plant for cover to use outdoors. They are little ninjas when it comes to disappearing.

Glad you found him.

Mine was mistreated and neglected for weeks on end so he doesnt like being in a cage or being around humans that much. He likes to have his freedom. He trusts me which is huge because he does crawl on me when I need him to but he is slowly warming up to me more and more every day

(Hes hunting now lol)

Idk getting it sexed monday at the vet

 

[LonelyWolfPack]

She/he is about 10 months old but is the size of 5/6 month old because of lack of nourishment and mistreatment on the lines of abuse

[JoXie411]

Here is a pic of the lil guy in case anybody wants to see. Is there anything besides watching for him on top of the branches, that I should know about? I will take any advice at this point. View attachment 234190

Well I'm honestly really glad you got him/her back safely. I'd be freaking and chopping things down branch by branch lol.

I’m there with you no tree or bush would be safe till I found them. I would call in sick at work to find my chameleon as well

Hooray happy ending!
