Shaking/unsteady when walking or moving about enclosure

[coastalvibesmama]

Hi. Some chameleons will shake back and forth a little when leaf walking. Are you able to get some video of it? You’ll have to post it on another platform like YouTube or instagram and then can paste in the share link here in your post.
Are you giving a multivitamin too?

Any ideas on this? His eye was bothering him last night and I'm pretty sure his good eye was shut when I approached him today. Here is what his bothersome eye looked like today. Better than it looked last night..

Give me a second and I’ll share the husbandry form with you.

Ok thanks for your patience! Below is our husbandry form. If you will copy it and then fill out as much detail as you can I'll review it for you

Now regarding your guy's eye. If husbandry is correct my guess is maybe he has something stuck in his eye? Does he have an automatic mister you could set a misting time for him during the day to allow him to rinse out his eyes?
