Adult chameleon sizes

[MiniCham3]

Hi everyone!

I recently got a pygmy cham (R. temporalis) and absolutely love him! I have become so taken with them that I've been looking at "regular" sized chams to possibly add in the future. Many websites have different information about the sizes that they reach as adults.

What are some of the smaller species of chams as adults? I want to do a lot of research before I would make the decision to purchase, but I definitely want a small one!

Thanks for any information you all have!!

Carpet chameleons are smaller than most and are very colorful

I second the Carpets! They are absolutely beautiful and will remain smaller but not as little as a pygmy. Take a look at my albums, I have some pictures of both a male and female carpet.

I have been researching Carpets nonstop since reading your recommendations! Needless to say I am no completely in love and have my heart set on one!

There's so much information around about them though! I'm still trying to determine what the best set up for one would be. I'd like to purchase and set up a home for one before I purchase one.

NHenn, I looked at your albums and your Carpets are gorgeous! I saw that their newest pictures are at 7months- do they have a lot more growing to do at that age?
