I noticed yesterday that my panther chameleon was getting ready to shed for the first time since I've had him. Today I found him stretched out trying to get everything loose. I upped his misting a bit to help assist in the process. He did not eat anything as expected, but is still drinking as normal. My concern, and it's probably nothing, is that he went to his usual bedding spot 4 hours early and closed his eyes to sleep. His normal routine is 2 hours prior to lights out. I have the lights set from 7PM-7AM. I'm thinking the shedding process may have tired him out, but wanted to be certain since closing of the eyes during the day is a big no-no no matter what
I've looked up some previous threads on shedding and couldn't find an answer. Any help would be appreciated!
