Why you mad Cham?

Why are veiled chameleons always hissing and flaring up everytime I see one? Is it just natural temperament or just stress?:confused:
 
They do have a reputation for being a bit 'territorial' but they are as varied in temperament as any species. Mine are both quite tolerant of me and even my male hasn't hissed or flared in ages :)
They do sometimes look more impressive in angry pics though.........
 
I went to a pets mart to pick up some wax worms for my Jackson's, and I guess I walked too close to this juvenile veiled Cham cage and sure enough he was hissing flaring up at me. I was just like lol did someone not get their crickets? People looked at me as if I was crazy for talking to a chameleon in a baby voice.. And then I awkwardly walked out of the store

HAHAAHA ROFL - you should have told them chams have no ears....then they would know you crazy and wouldn't let you back in ;)....:D
 
I'd hope they wouldn't I feel so bad for some of the reptiles in there, petsmart is just the closest insect provider :p
 
well, my female Jackson must have an identity issue - she is always mad or hissing at me - lol but I lover her anyway :)

Actually the closest provider may be your keyboard! ;) Some great site sponsors supply feeders here. I am at the point where I don't like even going in the same parking lot as some of these pet stores.
