when will my cham shed?

[jstart1]

I have had my veiled chameleon for about 2 weeks now and i haven't seen her shed yet. She is roughly 2-3 months old. Is it possible that she shed while i was gone for a few hours?

I'm no pro but my little Jonny 5 shed for the first time last week. I feed him, went to store and returned to find skin all in bottom of cage and his colors seemed to be a little more brilliant next day. I hear they can shed very fast at times.

With the amount of skin my little guy shed I would believe there would be evidence left behind.

I will let someone with more experience chime in. Good luck!

I've had my Jackson's almost four months and he's shed twice, so about every 5-6 weeks. I'm not sure how long the time span was between his last shed with his old keeper and his first shed with me, but there was barely a month between sheds once he was In my care. My best guess is he's about a year old, and I know the shedding slows down the older they get. It also depends on growth spurts, hydration, nutrition and several other factors. Hope this helps some!

You would see the shed in her cage if she did. It happens quickly at that age but leaves evidence.

I've had a lot of Veileds. When they are young, they will shed frequently as they are growing. I feed my babies as much as they can eat, so they tend to grow pretty quickly which causes them to shed too. Most likely, she didn't shed over a few hours usually it takes a day or two before it's all off. Just wait patiently, she'll shed when she needs to.
