Aging chams

[kirstxblue]

How can I tell how old my veiled is?
Turns out the shop I got her from didn't have a bloody clue about anythin so I doubt they got her age right!!
Thanks

post some pics and we can try to help you by comparing to other chameleons. Their coloring is more defined as adults and the males will have a larger casque but pics are the best way if you have not raised another one and know what to look for. They all don't grow at the same rate either but we should be able to give you a general idea.

she looks to be about 6-8 months old.

She doesn't have her adult female yellow colors, so I would say less than 6 months old. It is still possible that she is older though.

I think you have a beautiful cham, her colors are just lovely. And since she is young she will only get better.

Thanks Laurie, I think she's lush too

And thanks everyone else

Those are great pictures. That one of her climbing on your pretty fingernails is just wonderful. You need to consider entering the photo contests! (also, she's adorable)

Oh gosh, thanks so much for that! What a nice thing to say!!

I would say 4-5 months just by size and colour mine is a male and is about the same size and is that age so it might help, also awesome colours, so nice and bright
