Hi and welcome to the forums, you have come to the right place for everything chameleons. you will find that there is tons of information on here and the members are great.
I would def let your little guy settle in, its not uncommon for them not to eat for the first week or so. if this is the case might be smart to leave the guy comepletely alone as much as you can, this means even just looking at him, another thing you want to pay attention for is drinking.
just to be on the safe side of things since this is your very first chameleon and its very common to be given misleading/wrong information on care for these pets. i ask if you can fill this out to the best of your ability to we can get you on the right track of things from the get go. being as specific as possible and including pics of set up. if you havent already I suggest a good read of the caresheets link provided on the site over on the left hand side.
