She is pacing the cage now and I have had her for ten days. She has made about 5 passes along the same spot. Should I be worried????

Could you be a little more vague?


Need to know who she is? Age, type of chameleon, sex, etc.. Someone else will post a how to ask for help, link.

Female Veiled had her for ten days first time ive noticed. I know she is young but I rescued her. she is about a month and half old.She is basically glued to the top of the cage
 
:confused: Is she glued to one spot, or pacing. Is she parked out under a light/heat source?

She made about 5 passes then stopped in the middle.No light source not hiding in the open just sitting there now. Sorry for not knowing how to describe it she is my first cham.

A moving chameleon is a good sign. You usually only have to worry when their motionless with eyes closed during the day. Is there anything you can think of that might be bothering her. Sounds like she wants out, or maybe looking for food.

it is about feding time and i just put a new plant in but she loved it about an hr ago. Other than that no the temp is good humidity is good plenty of water and no one is near her cage walking by or sitting
 
I just took her out to eat and she wasn't interested at all. and everything in the cage is still perfect any ideas of why she is pacing then sitting then pacing then sitting all in the same spots?
 
Then I'll say she's doing fine. (out to eat) I'd try to feed her inside her cage. Less handling = less stress for baby.

If your at home during the day, I suggest you let her have a little natural sunlight if possible. By taking her cage outside for 15 minutes a day. She's still very young, so between the hours of 9 - 10am or 2 - 3pm time of day works. Don't want to over heat her, but natural sunlight is so good.
