Current Problem - About 5 days ago one of the kids heard a thud from the chameleon's cage and than saw the chameleon on the bottom of his cage when just a few minutes earlier she saw the chameleon at his usual spot closer to the top of the cage. So we think the chameleon fell. The next day, I notice a gray area around the base of the tail of the chameleon that was not there before. After 5 days, the gray area has not change in size or shape. The Chameleon is still active, eating, drinking and using his tail as normal. It just looks like the color has disappeared from this area of the tail and along the full length of the tail at the very bottom side in a very slim line. Just waited to know if it looks like it is something to worry about? Or just something to watch to see if it gets worst or changes shape or color?
