Does anyone know if dwarf jackson's horn is capable of regrowing?

I can't tell you if a Meru's horn will grow back....but here is the only information I could find about chameleon's horns growing back...

Scan down to horns.

Hey, I have a spooky related question that you might alrady have dealt with. Came home today with and saw a bunch of black stuff on the tip of my 'standard' Jackson's Chameleon. Figuring it was just litter of some sort (wasn't sure what, and didn't give it much thought at the time) I noticed his horn was 'giving' a little at the tip. The very tip (well, 1/4 of the horn) has snapped, but only halfway! A light flex showed a fleshy material inside (not sure what it's supposed to look like, so if it matters, it was a dark greyish, and looked like fatty tissue or a darker cartilage). I cleaned it out with hydrogen peroxide. He seems fine, is eating fine, and didn't seem to care much when I was cleaning it out. He's still a has high energy and all things point to the notion that... he just doesn't care about the injury...
I don't know the cause, but judging from what I was able to identify as a small piece of coco fiber (I a thin layer of husk cubes at the bottom) I'm pretty sure it was caused by a fall.
So, sob story aside. I have a Jax with a halfway broken horn and nobody (my local vet and RJ's Exotice (A GREAT PLACE, BTW) had a clear answer.
As for now, I'll keep cleaning it 3-4x a day with peroxide... I'm considering ways to 'mend' it...
Any thoughts?
One consideration I had was (and it's going to sound bad, but they use it on people too) a small dab of superglue to seal the horn shut... That's extreme... but I'm open to anything.
Thank you SO much!

Eh, forgot to check the 'email me' thing. Send me an Email, since this is sort of a timely thing.

And, sorry to piggy back your post, but I figure I'll need to know your question's answer too.
