Hello!

Thanks for your response!

Unfortunately our chameleon friend left us. He died during the night and I found him dead by morning yesterday.

My father in law brought it to me because he was spraying pesticide on the crops, where he found him. Normally I do not pick and slave animals just for my personal enjoyment...actually I'm very contrary to this. But I wanted to see if he was ok to free him in another field. I was suspicious by the amount of time he was sleeping. In my opinion and past chameleon experiances they tend to spend much more time awake. This guy just slept all the time!

Infact since it was raining for the past two days I kept him inside, attached to an indoor plant. I hunted for flies for him but was not interested. By morning I found him on top of the soil, dead.

I don't say it's better like this, becaus obviously I was hoping his guy would get better, and let him free once again, but I do think he was suffering. It is also not that normal that he falls off to the ground.....where this post started off! I suspect he was feeling bad due to the pesticide, if not directely sprayed on him, he might have ate insects that died from it...poisoning!

I'm sorry to give you such news, I'm even more sorry I wasn't able to help him!

Cathy, yes you're right....Chameleons do not have hairs....those are Lulu's after a lot of sniffing all over his body!!!
