Female peacock chameleon

[Tyaeda]

I have an opportunity to purchase a female peacock chameleon from someone local to me. Before I commit to anything I was wondering if someone could tell me how their husbandry needa differ from a veiled?

They look like pretty chams. Unfortunately I don't know anything about them but here's a nice article I found. Hope it helps

I would say they do have very few things in common,yemen are a more desert and dry environment type of chameleons and peacocks as well as most trioceros are low temperatures high humidity and oversensitive to oversupplementation.
I would check before buying to be sure that I have a good gutloading basis.
also they may be sensitive to handling so you have to be willing to commit to keep your hands off if they don´t response well to it

The only thing the 2 species have in common is being chameleons.

I would suggest doing some reading about the highlands of Cameroon.
