Well, I have to share this incredible story.
I found a baby panther chameleon on the floor of my reptile room today. At first, I was completely puzzled as I had no idea how it got there. All of my chameleon eggs are currently incubating in the main house, far away from the reptile room.
Then it dawned on me.
I had recently repurposed an enclosure that used to house my female panther chameleon. It is now home to a peach throat monitor. The only explanation is that I must have missed removing one of the chameleon eggs before reusing the enclosure. The egg hatched, and somehow this tiny baby chameleon escaped from the monitor's enclosure, climbed down a six-foot shelf, and made its way across the room to the floor where I eventually found him. Poor baby he was really dehydrated and started licking the water as soon as I put him in an enclosure.
Life truly finds a way.
I have a feeling this little one is a boy, with a red throat like his dad. I'm definitely keeping him and I'm going to call him Valentine.

So happy you found him.
