My chameleon is doing well. Growing. Eating. Drinking. Free ranging but I cannot find any poops. She has never been a frequent pooper but I am getting concerned. She also has a new hibiscus which she munches on.

If she is 5 months......She has graduated from small crickets and I am feeding her medium sized gut loaded crickets. I feed in the morning and only once a day about 6 to 8 crickets and one gut loaded super worm freshly cut up as seem too big. She waits for her food as I feed in a cup and then...
