Stuck shed?

[Chelsea&Rango]

Hi! Is this a stuck shed on his turret? He’s do for a shed, I just noticed this morning

I think you are referring to Rango’s casque. It does appear lighter than the rest of his body, but he may just be feeling nervous about being near you. You can expect him to become less tolerant of handling as he matures into an adult male. My guy never got aggressive but he was defensive of his territory and got very bright when I held him with a puffed body and gaping, hissing. Male veiled chameleons are awesome, maybe the best personalities. He might be going into a shed so maybe hold off on misting and just use hydrating bugs like silkworms or hornworms in the interim. I always stop misting when they’re in a shed cycle.

No I was talking about that little white piece on his turret, his casque has been that colour since his last shed. I stopped misting last night as he’s do for a shed, waiting on his food order with silkworms

Here’s a picture example to show his casque color, it’s that colour and it has light peach and green on it

Looks like a little tiny stuck piece. It will release on its own.

He hasn’t shed yet, is this a sign of him starting his shed?

It could have been that he shed the section when you were gone. His casque looks quite dusky like he has a shed incoming.
