Panther Chameleon won't eat!!!!

[hemingway]

My male panther chameleon hasn't been eating. It started about two weeks ago but I got him to eat one day in between which gave me hope but now I'm worried again as another week is about to go by. He looked very healthy still and very active but today I noticed he looked less active and resting his head on the vine and not holding on with all his feet and it looks like his eye is bothering him now. Ive tried offering him gut loaded and dusted super worms (his usual) and also roaches. He often looks at it almost like hes going to go for it then doesn't. He seems to be hydrated and I also tried giving him a shower. PLEASE HELP. Should I try to force feed him?! Any info would be great. His name is Ozzy by the way and hes almost 3.

Unless you get better advice here soon, I would for e feed him. When they start resting their head, it can be a quick downward spiral. Use something soft like silkworms.... and research the Heck out of it. I never force fed one but hear its tricky.
