My first Chameleon finally came in the mail today! i'm sure you guys remember the feeling! I ordered a baby male veiled from reptimart.com
He got here around 11am, and immediately woke up once i started opening his container. I set him in his habitat with some crickets in a dish and he ate them once i backed off for a few minutes.
it's so difficult leaving him alone to adapt to his new environment, i just want to watch and admire him. He really seems to enjoy the hibiscus i put in there for him, whenever i check he's there instead of the fake plant next to it.
i took a few blurry pictures with my friends iphone. He's still understandably shy, but i feel like he's already warming up to me (probably positive thinking).
just wanted to share my excitement with you guys. I'll attach the pictures below (if i can figure it out)
