what are the temps?

movment is normal as long as he eats,sleeps(at night only), and drinks he should be just fine.

make sure the temps are right becuase they are too high they will move around the enitire cage looking for a place
"chill out".

I ve noticed Chameleons are very active and they never stay in one spot for long,but just to be safe answer chamscool's questions~

Is this something new or has he always done this - when did you get him? As chamsrcool pointed out if he is eating, sleeping, etc. he may just be a busy little guy! How big is his cage? Luna began wandering more and would try to come out everytime I opened her door in her smaller cage, but since she has been in the big one she doesn't "pace" as much. If you can get a pic and post it maybe someone here might see something. Just a thought. Does he do it all times of the day or at specific times?
