Angry Cham

[Vidal rubio]

I own a 8 month old Cham and he for some reason is becoming more angry with me I started to work more hours and when I get home and try to pet or hold him he will hiss at me and he never did that before. What should I do

He is most likely maturing and becoming more of a big tough guy. Keep working with him and if your not already hand feeling I would try that out. Every chameleon is different but hopefully you can work through it with him and he will become less aggressive as he gets older.

At 8 months of age he's a "teenager" and feeling his hormones. Many chams go through a grouchy touchy stage at this age. He may mellow out again as he get older. Kind of hard to predict.
