Hi
I'm very new to keeping chameleons - my boyfrined bought me a Yeham last weekend.
I think she's female and is about 9 months old according to the shop.
When collecting her they gave a sheet of A4 paper with information on caring for her, but after reading further on the internet it seems this information wasn't enough.
We have been feeding her on small crickets but as there have been some in the viv I have not put new ones in each day, the thing is I don't think she has eaten at all for about 5 days.
Also we have been misting the viv but she doesn't seem to be drinking.
Yesterday and today we tried all sorts - I have tried apples and cucumber and she is not interested, also we have tried al drip system and also a small tub of water but she has not had anything. She now looks like she is losing weight and we are really worried.
Does anyone have any advice please?
Thanks very much
Kelly
