Age?

[Veiled Balter]

I bought a veiled chameleon about 4 months ago. The pet store owner said he was 2 years old, but I'm starting to think other wise. He just seems.. tiny.. and other people told me he look to Young to be two. Can anybody help?

Can you measure him, nose tip to vent?

He does look young but its hard to get an exact age once they reach that size. At that size they tend to slow down their growing, generally around the 1 year mark.

He does look skinny too, particularly his tail and front arms. How much are you feeding him? Has he been tested for parasites by a vet?

He's 16 centimeters.
He has been eating less and less recently, but I don't know how to get him to eat more.
No, he hasn't been tested for parasites.

He looks very thin. I would get a fecal ASAP. He could have cociddia.
