Help, grumpy Cham in new enclosure!

[Cameronthechameleon]

Hi there,

I have a 2 year old Ambilobe Panther Chameleon, the first 2 years of his life he has lived in a wooden/glass enclosure with fans for ventilation, due to rotting of the wood from misting I have upgraded to a chameleon world muji all screen enclosure with a solid back and drainage base. I set it up over this weekend and have monitered it for temps and humidity etc to ensure it was all good, basking spot at 85-90 degrees Fahrenheit and rest of enclosure 75 reducing to 70 at the bottom. I am using a reptiglo 5.0 uvb bulb and a 100w basking bulb to get the right temps. I also have a mistking system setup with 2 nozzles and a rain nozzle misting 7 times throughout the day for roughly a minute each time, enclosure dries out almost completely between misting. I have plenty of live plants and branches (will post some pictures). However since the move he has been very grumpy (very dark colours) not much exploring his new enclosure, he will eat but not as much as usual. Just wondering is this could be to do with the move and change of habitat or should I be worried?? Any help would be great! Thanks

They take a bit to adjust to a new enclosure, give it a few weeks and should be back to normal.

My guess is he is just feeling vulnerable. Just let him be till he comes around.
