Wink Do chameleons eat turkey?

Well, it's Thanksgiving this weekend and I will be leaving my home. I will be leaving Saturday noonish and returning Monday about 7pm, approximately 55 hours. So my real question is, do I take my cham with me or not?

Here are the facts:[list=1][*]My veiled cham, Juno, is about four months old.[*]He is eating and drinking plenty. He has even started cup feeding. So I can leave some extra feeders in the cup.[*]I would make a smaller cylindrical enclosure for him tonight. (18"diameter and 2' high)[*]I cannot take the Reptisun bulb with me.[*]I have not yet located anyone who is available to come into my apartment to feed/mist him (they are going away for Thanksgiving as well).[*]I have a dripper set up. I will also add other things to maintain humidity. Temperature is not a problem.[/list=1]

Do you other keepers take your chameleons on roadtrips? Is 55 hours too long to leave a chameleon? I would think the lack of the Reptisun for 55 hours would not cause a problem, but what do I know. There is always the real sun and it is suppose to be a nice weekend.

Some of the relatives/in-laws would like to meet my "icky" pet reptile. But I can always show them pictures while Juno is safe at home. I still may find someone to come in, but I am not holding my breath.

Any thoughts?
