Is it just me....

Is it just me or do other people love the thwack you hear when their tongue hits the bug?
Is it just me or do other people freak out when they can't find their chameleon in their enclosure despite knowing there's no way they could have gotten out?

I like that sound to.
Some times it has taken me five minutes to find my cham in his cage, and one time it took that long he was 5 inches from my face.

That happened to me this morning, I recently took in a large, aggressive male veiled that someone was rehoming and I couldn't find him. I could hear him puffing and hissing and me and then after looking for a bit, there he was on the front door of his enclosure right in front of my face.

My brother told me my cham got out. I took a quick glance and panicked. Spent 15 mins searching and finally found her sleeping in the leaves inside her cage

Chameleons can be very fast when they wants to be,Yall need to keep a good eyes watch ,especially when they not in their cages,thats when the missing and accidents do happen that way!!

I know how fast they can be and I'm always careful. I don't free range because I have cats and dogs too so if they're out, they're on me. The only time I can't find them is when they are nestled deep inside of their enclosure. I have them all in very large 4x4x6 homes that are set up like little jungles so sometimes it's hard to find them in there.

Great sound! I also love the look they give when they notice you watching and they stop chewing...that "can I help you?" look with half a cricket hanging out of their mouth hahaha

And I am PARANOID for no reason! Well with my first cham I attempted to sort of free range and we had a few escapes - to this day I am still not sure how he got out the one time. Anyways, now with my new little baby I am so afraid he somehow managed to squeeze through the screen or some other area that is just as physically impossible for him to get through. I know he isn't going anywhere, but I am not happy till I have a visual!

Tell me about it,one of my male cham try to find his date since I separated them 23 hours a day,and that one hour visiting time,he almost climb to the parrot stand n bobbing their head together .
