I have been reading around and see everyone selling their chameleons at 3 months and older, but recently I went to Austin Tx and saw a baby chameleon in a petsmart that was no bigger than 2 inches and when I went back to Lubbock I saw one that was even smaller. It looked like he was no more than a week old.
Why do some breeders sell these chameleons right out of the egg? I asked my girlfriend and she said she thought that the baby veiled was there when she went 5 days ago. So the cham couldnt of been more than a week old when it got there.
What I thought was even worse was that I asked about their crickets and the crickets they had for sell were half the size of the baby and they didnt have fruit flies, so they had nothing there for sell that he could eat....what are they feeding him???
Sorry for the rant but I dont understand why people are irresponsible in selling animals at such a young age especially if the petsmart were to sell the baby to someone then they wouldnt be able to find it an appropriate feeder.
