They see their reflection in the glass and it scares them. I would not recommend keeping them in glass. If you will check out this site it will tell you everything you need to know about keeping your chameleon healthy and happy. http://raisingkittytheveiledchameleon.blogspot.com/

How old is she? Does she have a laying bin? Females lay eggs even it they have not been mated. Where do you live? I'd say a new cham check up is in order. Check out this site to locate a cham vet in your area. Jann

okay well what i just did now was
got a bird cage that i didnt need and put some bbq netting around it which is like 1cmfor each square but the problem is that my thermometer broke last night..
and im not sure if i can get one any time soon but i guess ill have to seee
there is another problem...the entrance to the care dosent ahve enough space to put a tub for the crickets to go in
do you have any ideas of how to feed the cham?

i use a feeder cup tall enouph the crickets cant jump out, i never free range helps with less clean up and your cham will never eat anything it shouldnt. personally i would build a custom enclosure, cheaper for a heck of alot more space...

deli cups are recommended, must be id say 8" deep, i poke two holes in mine at the top of the cup and use a huge strong twisty tie so i can mount it anywhere and my cham can do the rest, then remove it when your cham is done and out of it and clean it well... try to put it below him/her or theyll sit at the side of it trying to get in, eventualy theyll get to go up and over but if you put it below them theyll get it right the first time. you can use about anything you like though for a feeder cup

Hello Omegian
A chameleon will sway/rock, swell up with air, gape, and change to darker coloration when they are angry and trying to scare away another chameleon or creature that is bothering them. If you wear dark colors, get too close, try to pick her up when she wants to be alone, or if she sees her reflection, she will show that threat posture.
Dark coloration and lethargy would indicate that the chameleon is too cold or sick.

hmm funny you should say that.... A lot of people on here say glass doesn't stress a cham.... sounds like first hand experience here.
You check out the site raising kitty as people are suggesting and putting her into a screen cage will do wonders for her.
