The reason I was asking about it being a male cause females will stop eating when they have eggs to lay. Alot of times the pet stores are wrong about the sex. Does your chameleon have little spikes on the back of his two back heels. If so, it is a male. There can be other reasons for not eating but being a female with eggs is one of them.
