2 days ago i added a vine in his cage to help him get to the feeder bowl i put in. Ever since i did this he has been climbing and staying on the top screen just doing circles on it. yesterday his color was normal now its more black. The temps are normal as they have been. cage is 18x36x48 lights are rasied about a inch of the top screen to keep him from burns. basking area is 85-90 with the middle around 70. I have a 18 week old nosy be. any advice would be great. also he normally eats about 5 or so medium size crickets a day lately its been about half that. im trying to get him to use the feeder bowl.
 
It could be as simple as he just doesn't like the way you've re arranged things- my jackson gets upset with a leaf being out of place- There was also a thread a while ago about a chameleon freaking out over a spider in his cage - I'm not sure I want to go with those answers since it sounds like his appetite had changed before the cage -
I'd check your care with the care sheets here and see if anything is missing

Hopefully it's just that he needs to get used to the new additions..
 
i think it might be the new colors from the vine throughing him off. i might take it out and replace it with a green one because he wont go anywhere near it. ill give it a few day to see if he gets use to it if not ill take it out. i just through he could use some color. he will eat just not around the colored vine.
