Hello, I just purchased a Jackson’s chameleon 2 days ago. He likes to sleep during the day. I’m assuming the pet store may have had a little different schuedle for him? Mine is 11-11.
I have had A vielded chameleon for about a year now so I am kind of familar With care but. I just see him sleeping and I wake him up and put him under the basking light and he will sit there for a couple hours and go back to bed.
I believe he is around 3 months old according to pet store and they said he’s a “rainbow Jackson” idk if that’s even a thing but I do see he has some nice yellow going through him.
Also when I got him he was much darker and in a cage with other water dragon lizards and one other Jackson. Idk of this change of color is good or bad. He’s been eating some wax worms but not much. He has a Mercury bulb 80 watt all in one power sun uv. The cage is small (Chameleon kit size) but he’s tiny so it’s ok. Basking temp about 80-85 depending on where he stands. When he sleeps during the day it’s usually under all those fake leaves on the vine to the left. Think he just needs time to adjust? Too soon to tell?
