LOST Chameleon!! (chameleon veiled)

Ok, if you were a 1 week old baby chameleo calyptratus (veiled chameleon),
and you escaped your cage, where would you hide in a four story house?

off the ground? corner?

Do you have any house plants? He may take refuge there. How about any
humid areas of the house? Chameleons generally drink droplets of water,
usually from plants, but he may be attracted to water droplets on a
bathroom wall or shower curtain.

Good hunting,

Oh no, one week old must be TINY! I would check any cords (electric, mini
blinds...) and whatever they lead up to. Any curtains? Houseplants?

And guess what? They are tiny! I've seen weeny little baby veileds in The
Reptile Haven. Their little bodies were about a inch long (maybe even less)
SVL and they were probably older than a week!

So cute

Well, I've never had *anything* that small so I can't tell you where to
look, however I do have a suggestion. For such a small baby use a very
bright flashlight while you look for him. He may be hidding in a little
corner and the brighter light may help you to see him better, even during
the day. Just a thought.

Look for the closest d****s or curtains!!!

If no curtains, look on the back of cloth furniture. This little one
shouldn't be able to climb anything made of wood, unless it's small
enough to cling to. So, I would think a fabric or cloth would be needed
for it to climb.

Good Luck!
