something wrong with my chameleon?
i have a male jackson chameleon that is about 7 months old. ive had him for about 3 months. in the past two or three days, hes been acting kind of weird. he seems to be hanging out on the bottom more often. but today was the weirdest.
i came back from home depot and went to my room to mist his cage. i couldnt find him. i was looking all over and finaly i did find him. he was in this little container(i have the container on the bottom of the cage to catch the dripping water that falls off of the plant.) he was just sitting there in about 1/2 inch of water. he wasnt trying to escape, and he wasnt stressed out at all. as a matter of fact, he was very, very bright. i immediately took him out and put him on a branch, and he has just been hanging out on some plants since then.
the only thing i could think of is that he might have been dehydrated. but he doesnt appear so. his eyes arent shrunken in at all. also, there is a dripper dripping for aout 10 consistent hours, and i see him drink from it. also, i mist the cage down with warm water about 3-5 times a day.
if anyone knows what might be wrong, or has any suggestions of what i can do, please tell me. thanks
