Does anyone know how many days it takes for a chameleon to shed?


Answers:
Unlike a snake, a chameleon will shed its old skin in patches. The entire process could take weeks! A baby will shed every few weeks, as it is growing quickly. An adult will shed every 4 months or so.

When a chameleon is ready to shed, he will "puff up" in order to break out of the old skin. You will see him twisting around, rubbing against sticks, and even using his feet to try and pull the dead skin off!
