Exterme stress???

[skittles1234]

I just got finished moving today and my lil girl senegal cham is flipping out. she is normally the clamest and never has any problems but now is completely brown like when i first got her and was very dry looking like a prune. I keep giving her water and misting her enclosure but she isen't turning back to green. She ate this morning. I placed her in the closet in my new place this morning and she ate and i had to keep off the lights in the closet because the maintance man is coming and she is not suppose to be here. PLEASE HELP>why is she soooo stressed out. its her same set up in the enclosure. I did travel with her for 3 hours though in the car. monitering her the entire time@! Help!

Is this your first day in your new house? Our girl went brown and spotty for a whole day when we moved her to her new enclosure. She was fine the next day.

cover her cage. and let her be.

She will be ok in a day or two most likely a good night sleep in her surroundings/cage will help relax her and give her some sense of control over her realm again.

chameleons are extremely aware of the surrounding area outside of there cage. So a three hr car ride plus being in a dark closet witg no light is nothing short of tramatizing. Give it a week and keep encouraging her to drink
