if you mean whats fun about owning one
i personally like watching them their sooo intrestresting
but if your a small child and you wana own somthing you can handle all the time and play with dont get your hopes up. a majority of chameleons hate being handled. but watching them eat and climb around your house and change colors ocaisonaly then their kinda fun.
if your lucky you can get one that will eat from your hands which is time consuming fun.

I have had a lot of different chams, panthers, veilds, carpets, jacksonns, elliotti, deremensis, tavetana, and the list goes on. Each of those chams is different and interesting. None are the 2 chameleons I want to focus on. I want quads & mellers. Can I tell you why, no. I have my first ever mellers and it is a baby. All babies are cute, but this one just makes me happy watching him/her. I love it now and am looking forward to having a gentle giant. Quads stole my heart first time I saw one. I adopted a rescue and when she walked out of her box, she had me. Quads are personable to watch. I find they are normal chams, as they do not want to be held or messed with. I love the horns, the fins, the acrobats they are. My male will sleep with his front legs on a branch, back legs hanging free and his tail secured to a branch. If he wants something across his room he will spend a hour figuring how to get to that special spot. I watched him try 4 ways before he got to the spot he wanted. He went across branches, he went over electric cords, he climbed the curtains and walked 6 feet across the open floor. In the end he got to a plant shelf and to the tree on the 4th shelf up. I was enthralled as he would try, & fail, go back, try & fail, etc. Until he got what he wanted. After he made it all the way, he knows how to get there and goes back every few weeks for a visit. He may be 8 ft in the air in a dense tree, but when I walk in whit his food he will quickly walk out of what ever place he was at. I may not see him at all until I show up with food. Then he eats from my hand, has a drink from a spray bottle with Mommy and goes away. He has a mistking and a dripper but he likes me to spray him. He will not allow anyone else to spray him. Lenny provides unending surprises and he is always learning new behaviors. That is just one cham, all of them are very distinct creatures, and each gives me more than I give them.
Now are you sorry you ask?
