Help chameleon sitting still for long

Hi I just recently got my new panther chameleon he is about 4 months now I’m concerned because around 5:30 he finds a spot and doesn’t move until his lights turn off I’m just wondering if it’s normal or not?

Welcome to the forum! Depending where you live they can sense the change of seasons and will go to their spot early. As long as he’s just getting comfy and not closing his eyes to sleep he’s good.

Okay thank you!

okay thank you! Yes he isn’t closing his eyes but he does get in his sleeping position where he curls his tail up

Some like to tuck themselves in early and even start to lighten up while lights are on. Mine isn’t one of them he seems to have a good internal clock and waits until the last 30 mins or so of the day to wind down

Hi and welcome. Little guy is using up a lot of energy to grow. How much are you feeding him?
