She became aggressive

[Ricardopalma12]

Hey I have a question, so my veiled chameleons never liked to be handle (she still doesnt) and I have always respect that until I had to change her to her new cage. She would let me hand feed her, but she has been really aggressive lately, when I changed her to her new cage shr was green bright and this past 2 days she has been a little bit more dark and I tried to hang feed her but she hissed at me.

Give it some time she may be freaked out about the new digs.

She has been in her new cage for almost 2 weeks that's why I was wondering but I'll give her her time maybe that's what she needs thank you

They're all different. My veiled got pissed I didn't give her a blueberry and puffed up on me for a week.

I can handle my veiled pretty good with no issues. But one thing I can’t do Is pick him up from say his back or above him. He gets mad. But if I pick him up from under his belly it’s hardly ever a issue.

That is the biggest no no when handling. They'll freak out almost 100 % of the time being grabbed like that. Your threatening coming from that angle.
