Make sure your hose is under 4 foot long and u can actually see the steam I had problems with mine I made and make sure hose can't have any dips where the water inside can pool up a d cut off steam flow
Not true ryu all the male veiled chameleons I've seen have bright bars I'm just wondering if he's younger then what I was told or if I was told wrong that he'll start getting colors at 8 months when I was told he was 8 months when I got him close to 2 months ago
I try to handle mine every other day unless he's shedding but don't let him scare you when he gets older cuz the more you jump the whose it'll get. Mine was 9 months when I got him and the store I bought him from only had one girl who would care for him sho he was mean and grumpy now he chills...
I got a 10 month old veiled chameleon that don't get dark or change colors I feed him 7 large crickets a day he's very active and doesn't raise any other concerns
