Please fill out the Ask For Help form that is linked below so that we can see how you are keeping your chameleon. The more detailed info you give us the better we will be able to help. They do open their mouth when too hot and also when they have an RI.

but where is the form??? edit: you should have copied and pasted to this thread. I answered you in the other post with the form.. Most likely your chameleon is opening his mouth due to your temps being too high. Try lowering the temps. I also gave you a few other things that could use changing.
