Choco update

Choco is now 3 months old. He has graduated to eating large crickets. He eats about 5 crickets per day. He has also started to figure out his colors. He is getting some brilliant colors and patterns. His crest(shield on top of his head) has gotten considerably larger since the last update. He is about 15 inches long now. He has spent the summer living out in the back yard. The temperatures are getting cooler and we bring him in the garage if it the temperature drops below 60 degrees at night. Soon he will be inside full time. He is starting to get an attitude. He will hiss at you when you try to pick him up. After you have held him for awhile he calms down. We only hold him once every week or so to clean out the cage. He doesn't like being held. If you bother a chameleon too much it will stress them out and they might quit eating and get sick.
