Sick, Stuck or Tired?

[Insanityallthetime]

Saw my 5 month Chameleon Ranger in this position since 3:30pm when I got back from school, he hasn't done anything else but stay like that for the whole time. He is a lot paler than he usually is, and I'm worried about him being balled up like that. I'm also wondering if he is just stuck, should I help him?

looks like he may be shedding?
i wouldn't be too concerned, just monitor closely...

others will also opine...

That to me is not normal behavior to be balled up in a sleeping position at 3:30 in the afternoon with all the lights on.

What do you recommend I do?

It does look like sleeping colors and definitely sleeping position. I don't think that's normal for 3 in the afternoon.

I suggest you fill out the ask for help form, attach the picture again, and maybe start a new thread under the Health Clinic section if the moderators doesn't move this thread there in a few. Then hopefully you get more views and sound advice/opinions from the senior or veterinarian members here.

Good luck!

How long have you had him? Is your cage well lit? Heck just fill this out

I filled it out and titled it to Paled and Balled up in the health clinic, thanks for your help, let's see how this goes.
