Please help! NOT EATING
I just got my first chameleon almost a week ago, a rudis chameleon. He is very tiny maybe 1 1/2". The girl I bought him off of said she fed him 2-3 pin head or 1/8" crickets a day. I have owned other reptileS so I know about the lighting and everything. It all seems to be fine according to what I've read. All he has done since I got him is sleep. He moves around the cage a little but he is not eating at all. I bought Repto Boost to try and stimulate his appetite but I can't really get him to drink it. I got him to eat one small cricket (which was actually pretty big for him) 2 days ago and he hasn't eaten since. I don't know if he's drinking, I have the water dripping but I haven't seen him drink. I've also been working 12-15 a day all week so I very well could have missed it. Is this normal? I know sometimes reptile can go a little while without eating when you first get them, but he is SO tiny and he's only eaten once in 5 days. Please help!!!
