The Chameleon is a very popular type of Lizard due to the fact that
it has the ability to change colors based on their mood. This also allows
them to blend into the surroundings for safety. Other factors influence color
too including mating season and even the temperature around them.

They have a head that is narrow so you can see their shoulders from the
front. They have wide eyes on the sides of the head and a tongue that is wide
and long. They move from side to side when they walk with a gait that appears
to be quite awkward.

The mating season for the
Chameleon can vary based on the time of year and the location of them. The
sub species that is being evaluated will also influence that period of time.
All Chameleons lay eggs and that typically will occur in four weeks or less
after mating takes place. In order to bury to her eggs to keep them
safe and warm, the female chameleon firsts digs a hole in the forest floor in
which to bury them. The hole can be from 10 to 30 cm deep, but the depth of the hole generally depends
on the chameleon species. The female chameleon then lays a clutch of around
20 eggs, although the exact number of eggs can vary from just one to nearly
100. The chameleon eggs take from 4-12 months to hatch, depending on the
chameleon species.
