Help me save a young veiled!

[viaje]

A local pet store has four young veiled chameleons housed in one of those setups that is a screen cage area to set on top of a 10g tank (don't know the measurements, it's essentially two 10g tanks ontop of one another)
under it, there's a 12" cube exo-terra style cage labeled "perfect for chameleons!" they're selling the veileds for $125

putting all that aside (since people will probably buy them anyway)
there's one female in the cage that I saw last night, clinging to a branch with only three legs (I couldn't tell if it was hurt, or if she for some reason was just letting it dangle) her eyes sunken in, dehydrated, and she wouldn't open her left eye.

How do I badger them into giving her to me?
What have you done that's been successful?

Use the search button above "rescue veiled" I know there's been several post on here about it lately. Jann

Let them know your interested, concerned and want to help it, and even tell them how it should be cared for and offer if you can help it and give it back, like build a setup out of their supplies.
Thats what I wanted to do when I saw a poor cham in bad condition, but apparently it was sold.

Good luck.
