The Veiled Care sheets will help you as will the other Care Resources, I would recommend reading up on care and keeping before bringing the little guy home.

That is a very young chameleon, if he's that tiny. If that is your first I would consider getting one a bit older that will be easier to feed and whose health is probably a bit more stable. I think 3 months is a good sturdy age.

Welcome to the forums. It depends on the temps in your house and your chams enclosure if you need a basking light or not. I keep babies in the very low 80's. Attached below is my blog for how I have successfully kept young veileds.
