Hello. I'm new but will try to make some suggestions. Is he where he can still see the female. This could cause problems maybe. If so, make it where they can't see each other. If not maybe let him out so he can see she is gone. Maybe he wants to free range cause he still thinks she's there. Other then trying to trick him into thinking she's gone just make sure he stays hydrated and hopefully he'll get hungry enough. Hope someone else can give you more advice.

I am assuming he was healthy before this.
Sounds like the male now has something else on his mind(the ladies). Fairly common with younger males.
If there are no health problems, he will eat when he is ready.

I would not forcefeed unless absolutely necessary and two days of not eating is not necessary!

Hi! How old is your male chameleon? A healthy adult can go a good few days with no food. He's probably annoyed because he wants to breed and I would guess that not eating is a side effect of that. My suggestion would be move things around, possibly even put him in a seperate room from the females so that he can calm down.

Glad he's doing better now A 2 year old boy could likely go over a week and still be ok! They do it all the time for various reasons!
