4 Days Without Food at 5.5 Months Old?

I am planning a multiple day backpacking trip where I will be gone from Friday night until Tuesday mid-day/afternoon. As I understand it, chameleons can be perfectly okay going a week without food occasionally.

What about a 5.5 month old panther chameleon? Would he be okay going without food for a few days? I can fill his feeder Friday night before I go, which should give him some food on Saturday. I guess in theory he would only be without food for 2.5–3 days.

Thanks!

Well, this is like asking if your pet human will be ok going a day without food. Yes, you'll live, but it is not ideal for a young cham. Maybe have somebody come by? Does he have an automatic mister?
