Hi everyone,
I have a male veiled chameleon that I have had for a little under a month. This past week he has been randomly closing one of his eyes periodically. He does this with both eyes and it is usually the one closes to the light. He also does it when I am out of the room so I feel that it isn't stress related. He eats about 5 crickets daily that are dusted with calcium every feed and I leave some meal worms and wax worms in his bowl for him to eat throughout the day (Usually they aren't finished). Calcium with D3 once every week or so and multivitamins about once every 2 weeks. He is pretty active as well. I could be overthinking it but I know closed eyes is a no no.
Any Thoughts?
Enclosure Details
Cage - 18"W 36H
Lighting - 75w Repti Basking spot lamp about 8-9 inches away from basking spot, and a 11" reptisun UVB fluorescent hood around the same distance away.
Misting and dripping about 4 times daily. I see him drink pretty often.
Yes I have a substrate and I know its not optimal but it's reptibark.
