Dose werner chameleon mate??
In order to reproduce chameleons have to breed.

how long can they live??
They should be able to live at least 5 years....I don't think there is a very certain answer to this question.

if chameleon is same blood can they still breed??
Related chameleons can still breed, but its not advisable.

dose werner chameleon lays egg or live baby and how many??
I don't know how many....but they have live babies.

my chameleon scratch his eyes and the eyes gose 2big as nomal size why is he doing that??
They clean their eyes and make them bulge out when doing it. Its normal to clean the eyes but if they are constantly/frequently rubbing them on the branches it could mean that there is a problem.

my chameleon comedown to ground so many times why is he doing that
If its just walking around and doesn't stay there then nothing is likely wrong. If he sits low in the cage it could be that the cage is too hot or it could be a health issue.

dose chameleon have ear??
It has an internal ear and can hear some noises/sounds.

dose werner chameleon eat ant and Pinky mice??
They can eat mice but they can get gout from eating them too.
Ants have formic acid in them and I would not feed ants to a chameleon.

thank you kinyonga
what is gout??

 

[Stanly]

gout is acid crystals that build up in the joins which cuts up the cartilage causing pain and inflamtion, people can get it to (from my understanding due to poor diet as well).

some people on here have had chameleons with gout and from what I hear it is very bad (makes in hard for them to even move)

Yeah gout is caused by ureaic acid build up but if your cham has good supply of water no problems
