Stress

[littlekiwi]

My chameleon Kiwi gets stress markings in her enclosure but the second i hold her they go away. What do I do?

leave kiwi alone, and get away from the cage.

I think what @PabloTheCham was trying to say is to let her settle in if she's new. This means dont handle her and try not to bother her.

**scratch what I said here, I looked closer and I see they are opened. I didn't have my glasses on LOL
