Climbing Guitar Theroy/Question

[The Wild One]

So when I first got my female veiled cham Coda (and she would come out on a stick) she would always love to climb my guitar. She would climb to the top and just sit there and bask. Does anyone know why she loved it so much? I'm still kinda confused why she wasn't scared of the vibrations from the strings as she climbed, Does anyone know why?

Chameleons naturally want to climb, especially if they can get higher up than they already are. Height makes them feel safer. I don't think the vibrations would scare her unless someone else was plucking the strings at the same time. There might be small vibrations, but it wouldn't be enough to scare her especially since they are used to climbing small vines or branches that move and vibrate under their weight. I am not advocating for guitar strings in your cham cage; however, her curiosity should be explored especially if she is not showing signs of stress and wants to explore under her own volition Gotta love these prehistoric creatures!

Ok that’s really cool...... so she isn’t a temperamental jerk!

The two are not mutually exclusive

Maybe she thought the vibrations were a mating call? Kidding of course!,
