I have a chameleon on her way out > hasn't eaten much in the past 2 weeks, but we are giving her water by hand. A reputable vet told me it was strictly old age catching up to her. My question is should I be force feeding her or let her pass on?

put her down better then letting her die slowly. And nothing worse then watching the poor thing slowly deteriate.

if there is nothing you can do to get her to starting eating, then its best to put ehr to sleep

Hey Jason,
Is the female in question on of the cephalolepis?
It is always hard to do but if you have exhausted all means it might be time to put her down. There is no need to have her suffering.
