Fight

Took the crew out for some sun today. Putting them on opposite sides of the same tree for 10 to 20 minute turns. These 2 brothers ran into each other while roaming. 1st pic shows male 1 sees male 2. 2nd pic shows male 1 move towards male 2 in a threatening display of head bobbing & intimidation. Male 2 does not back down which leads to 3rd pic where 1 attacks 2 & the 4th pic they are in a wrestling match which I only allowed to last for a few moments. The 5th pic is the proud winner of the scuffle.
This happened in a free range situation, happens in their natural habitat all the time , & I won't let it happen again, but it does show the reality of their territorial instincts. Keeping chameleons in the same enclosure is not a good idea.
