I have just moved him into his new enclosure lastnight so might be a bit stressed and still getting used to the fact it's bigger and the insects are thurther away. And I think he is due to shed agen soon.
Is a male. Ambilobe. Had for bout 6-8 weeks. Only handled once since I've had him. Feeding crickets locusts and occasionally waxworms. Been misting twice a day with Luke warm water in a spray bottle and enclosure is 1.8m tall and 1.1m wide and deep wood and mesh. Humidity is around 15_30%. And...
My ambilobe has just started to bite insects off the leaves in front of him if he misses his first strike and is drinking loads ATM. Is this normal or could it be cause by shedding?
Yeah he does try to shoot his tongue first but not as long as I have seen before. And been doing it for 2 days. And I have repashy superfoods. Calcium plus supplement and I dust the insects before I put them in. He is drinking lots too.
Is it normal for a chameleon to try and bite or lick the insects off the leaf in front of him? Hasn't always done it only in the last week maybe. Please help.
