Chameleon Info:
Your Chameleon - Panther Chameleon, Male, 4/5 months, have had it for 2 months
Handling - Handled once a week/ every other week
Feeding - Crickets 15 or so a day medium sized once in the morning. I gut load with a calcium supplement and fresh greens.
Supplements - Repticalcium with d3 and just bought reptivite with d3. I was dusting them 2x a week with the calcium without d3.
Watering - I have an auto mister that runs every 4 hours for 15 seconds, i run a drip a few times a day for a minute or so. The chameleon drinks, not everytime, but most of the time.
Fecal Description - good consistency, black with a little white at the tip
Has this chameleon ever been tested for parasites? no
History - Bred in a store
Cage Info:
Cage Type -16"x16"x30" Reptibreeze screen cage, all screen minus the floor

Temperature - Top is about 86/87 degrees bottome around 75 lowest overnight temperature is high 60s, measure with a zoomed digital thermometer
Humidity - my humidity hovers around 60, i use a mister to acheive this
Plants - just one, dont know what type
Placement - The cage is located in my living room and is situated about 3 feet above the ground
Location - Long Isand
Current Problem -
My Panther chameleon has taken to being dark most of the time. The only times he lightens up are when i approach the cage, handle him, or feed him. It should be noted he puffs and opens his mouth when i approach him so im not sure he enjoys my presence. That being said i know to equate darkness with stress and or illness and just want to make sure my little guy will enjoy a long happy exsistence, i have ben thinking of moving him into the hallway where there is not as much activity. any help or advice is much appreciated, i have no idea how to post a picture or i would
