Chameleon Info:
Cage Info:
Current Problem He just finished a shed and towards the end of the shed I noticed he still had a little skin on his mouth. I assumed he would handle the shed perfectly well. Yesterday, I noticed that he had a brown looking patch on his lip (in picture, hard to see, he's asleep; I turned on lights to take picture). The patch looks 3-Dimensional, meaning it isn't directly on his mouth. Kinda looks like red dead skin peeling off. He has been eating fine and uses his tongue fine.
