also a good rule of thumb is dont feed him anything thats bigger than his head! but it seems like you are doing fine with his feeding

I gutload them with carrots and sweet potato.

I searched around here but I don't think they sell repashy that well here in Japan. Too bad.

Thanks. I try my best as this is my first time, I have lots of questions and insecurities.

Also I think I found a special made to order for the repashy and will try those.

Thanks a lot!

Hi Everyoone,

Just an update, I named my chameleon Mosbee by the way

He is shedding now and I am attaching some pictures for you guys.

I saw him do some stretches but wasn't able to get a photo of it though.

Also, I checked on some more information on crested chameleons and found that they are montane chameleons so I looked up a care sheet for Montane chams here and found a good one from user Hoj.

Here is the link:

I have changed his lighting in the cage to a 50watt and also a reptisun 5.0 which was recommended. I also added some more vines to the bottom of the cage as I found out that they most likely hang out at the bottom part of the plant away from direct sunlight. But I am still worried as I don't think he is eating all that much. Yesterday tried to hand feed him, he tried once to eat out of my hand but I guess I made a mistake as the cricket did not leave my hand and after that he just didn't want to eat. I read that this maybe due to he is shedding?
