I'd like to understand how temp affects the growth rates after it has already manipulated the sex of the hatchling as it grows throughout the different stages to an adult. Are cooler temps slowing growth rates in chameleons but also making them live longer lives? Is this because they have longer time in their juvenile or their adolescent stage to eat and grow?
