Me and my bf have a 4 month old veiled chameleon and we have been worrying about him for the past few days because we had moved him into a new taller enclosure about 2 days ago and he hasnt been eating properly sense I think it could be stress from moving homes but i just want to make sure 100% hes okay but we feed him a variety of inscets such as medium- large crickets, dubias, superworms, hornworms, and mealworms were thinking of maybe getting some waxworms and maybe flies for him bc weve seen him shoot at fruit flies and stuff and think that could be fun for him to hunt and we also try to dust every meal some meals we forget but we dust with just calcium and on fridays calcium with d3 but everything about him has been okay except for eating we think he might have a shed soon and were reading about loss of appetite before shed but were just really not sure in his new cage it has the same lights and misting setup we usually have it mist every 3 hours for 45-60 seconds but sometimes well switch it to every one hour if we feel like its really dry in our room and we also have a hand mister and well use that too to give him a really good mist before bed and in the morning and in his enclosure he has plenty of spots to climb and hide and bask under the light and his heat lamp we like to set the heat lamp around 80 degrees sometimes 75 if we feel like its extra hot or will turn it up 85 if its kinda cold in his cage he also has many plants like a golden pathos a braided hibiscus tree and a honeysuckle bush and for the past few days hes been eating leaves off the golden pathos and the bush and the flowers off the hibiscus also in his cage he has fake vines that he climbs up and many of the benda branch branches and hes like moving around and like looking around there and i hope hes getting used to the cage and will hopefully eat soon from maybe just being stressed but hes in a way better home than before this one holds humidity way better than our last one but our last one was just a first try cage it was still very nice but the one nows way better ima add some pics of him and his new cage and the last pic is his old cage thank you
