You asked..."why would she want to climb to the bottom to escape
the birds?"...are you sure that she is climbing down?
Some/many chameleons will release the branch and drop to the
ground when frightened. Could this be what she is doing?
You asked..."Wouldnt an aboreal cham feel less secure on the
bottom with no ground cover aside from the packed towels?"...I
would think so...but if she feels that the predator is coming
from above, then she might feel like she has no alternative.
You said..."is it possible that even though she cant produce
eggs anymore, she still has the instinct to try to lay?"
Why can't she produce eggs?
I wouldn't be surprised if she still thinks that she can lay
eggs.
Am I wrong to assume that she has no trouble holding onto the
branches?
Can't think of any other ideas or reasons for the behavior at
the moment. Sorry!
