Chameleon fall

[herbiethechameleon]

Hey guys! So I was putting a new stick in his enclosure and my chameleon fell from the top of his 2x2x4. He fell a long way down poor thing and now I am scared he hurt himself. He seems to be fine but should there be signs I need to be looking for?

Chameleons are designed to fall from high trees in the wild and be fine. I would just keep an eye on him, but he should be fine.

That’s what I figured but it was so scary!!! He seems to be alright but just wanted to check on here with the pros

Just keep in mind that the forest floor is relatively soft compared to a metal cage floors, tile or hardwood floors. Also they can hit on something on the way down. I have heard of a few people whose chameleons passed due to a fall, so keep ann eye on him.
