Hello! So, I've had my chameleon for a good 3 months now. She's slowly getting bigger and bigger, but there is one thing I'm starting to notice. She is starting to get more timid with me. There was a good amount of time where she would gladly get on my hand and let me take her outside, let her explore, etc. But now, she's been getting both more aggressive and more timid. It's to the point where now when I open her cage to feed her or mist her plants down, she'll do the 'dinosaur hand,' puff up, and/or turn darker. She's even starting to gape her mouth whenever I get too close to her. Yet, she'll still take bugs from my hand no problem. I kind of assumed that she would slowly get more territorial as she aged, but it just happened so suddenely. Will she eventually warm up to me again? And what can I do to make that happen?
