My male chameleon sleeps like a cow

[AndrewBrian]

My chameleon sleeps like it will never wake up no more... I took him over to my friend's place to breed with his female.. when i was bringing him home i picked him up from the branch where he slept he just continued sleeping maybe he was really tired from baby making for 2 days

Chameleons should not sleep during the day. When the lights are on, they should be awake. If he is sleeping all the time, it is a sign there is something wrong. Do you know the health status of your friend's female? Perhaps he has been injured or picked up an illness from her. What is going on with your friend's female? Is she acting normally and not sleeping during the day?

It was already 6pm when i picked him up already quite dark... he was sleeping at the side of the chameleon cage on the screen not on the branch... so i picked him up from there and he continued sleeping that was last friday he's always been a heavy sleeper even with me but he's wide awake during the day till it gets dark then he's the 1st one sleeping of my 3 chameleons. My friend's female is huuge and a voracious eater she's active during the day i dont think she has any illnesses he can acquire hehhee i was the one that sold the female to him
