Cage: 18 by 18 by 36 screen cage. Water: sprayed twice daily along with dripper. Fed once daily, 6 to 10 crickets, sometimes meal or wax worms. Temps: basking spot is 85 to 90, rest of tank is 80. Handling is once or twice a week for a couple minutes. He is a male and is quite small for his age because he is about twelve months old. My chameleon, boris, has been brown most of his life. When he was little he was bright green but as he got older he slowly turned brown over time. Figured that was natural because he never seemed sick. He is usually some shade of brown where they are normally colored yellow and a blue-green with black speckled where they are normally green. There is also some gray, mainly on his head. Recently, he stopped eating, which could be because he is shedding or because he is sick of the food he is fed, but he still worries me because brown means they are unhappy. Do any of you have an idea of what's wrong with him?
