2 female panthers in one cage?

[shannond81391]

can you keep two 6 months female panthers in the same, 24 x 24 x 48 cage? or would that not work? i know you can keep males in the same becuase they are very territorial but maybe females?

They stress less when kept individually. Putting them together will negatively effect both chameleons and they would certainly do better if kept alone.

Keep them separated. I tried it when I first started. Did not work out for me. Fine at first and then aggression took over.

I have known 3 seperate people who have caged 2 or 3 females together. In each situation , they were young juvis and were sharing large cages.

In every case, the females did not do well over time. Each case would most likely have benefited from individual cages.

Personally , i have had 2 x 6 month old females fight over food, even though they had plenty of space and plenty of food.
