Age and General Health

I bought a baby veiled chameleon from a pet store about 2 weeks ago and he? (don't actually know sex) seems healthy but I wanted to make sure and thought that this would be a good place to ask about it. From the looks of him does he seem healthy? Also, if anyone could give me a a relative age for him that would be great. He's currently being kept in a 16x16x30 ReptiBreeze enclosure and I'm feeding him mealworms and crickets now (hoping to get some more variety soon) and giving him Exo Terra calcium+D3 and Repti Calcium without D3 but he doesn't really seem to like the supplements very much.

Welcome to the forums. What a precious little one! I love veileds and they are such a pleasure to keep with so much personality. The males have a little bump on the back of their heels on both back feet. The females do not. He/she actually looks pretty good for a pet store baby. My guess would be around 2 months old for the age. Your baby will also need a multivitamin a couple of times a month. I'm attaching my blog for new keepers. This is how I recommend keeping them so they will stay healthy. https://www.chameleonforums.com/blo...-keepers-young-veiled-panther-chameleons.html

Thank you so much for replying and for the links I really appreciate it and I think I see the little bump on his heels. He does have a lot of personality already.
