Climbing on top of cage

[Thompson]

The title says it all. I'm just wondering if it's odd for a chameleon to climb on top of it's cage. I find it odd because my veiled never does this. By the way the chameleon in question is a 3 month old ambilobe.

If you mean holding onto the ceiling of the cage and walking around upside down, mine does it too. I have a male Ambilobe Panther.

In the reptile store I work in, only the ambilobes climb upside down. Why is this?

Babies do it a lot.
My veileds do it, the Jackson's do it, I have a couple of baby brevs doing it right now.

Babies do this as mentioned above quite often. My baby male panther also does this quite often in his cage and he is about 14wks old.
