Sorry about bothering you so much with my problems but they seem to never end,it actually started to make no since at all anymore but I'm so hooked up to these reptiles that I won't let go unfortunately.I know you should not expect anything back from wild animals except for the joy seeing them thrive under captivity.I gave up so much and didn't get that back either.I wonder what keeps me going on the last few months...
Any way just a small prologue to make me feel just a little better,here's the problem I face right now perhaps any one might recognise something .
Since I moved my young veiled to my room,in a far bigger enclosure about 5x3x2.5 feet vertical and since then he has been very very shy,climbing up to the warm area/basking spot only when I am not present.As soon as he sees me he crawls slowly back to the dense cover of leaves.
The next thing is that when is exposed to view,he immediately looses coulour being very dull.When he steps back to his hideout or sleeping he immediately gains them back,next,
he has been shedding for a long time now,dropped pieces of dead skin but you see more all over him.
He is like this for a long time,perhaps 3 weeks or more,is this normal?I cannot relate dull colouration with this in any way..
Next we proceed to the chameleon's favourite.He does not eat,I'm so tired,I've tried everything...
Please if someone can see a relation in these problems please help.
Thanks a lot
