Meet Carlos the Chameleon!

I just wanted to introduce everyone to my new little Veiled male, Carlos! I just got him yesterday, and he seems to have settled in nicely. As soon as I sprayed down his plant, he started drinking like crazy (that's in one of the pictures) and then I managed to get him to eat crickets right off my finger today! He's really active and has a great appetite, and will readily climb on my finger without changing into any dark and stressful colors! Any guesses on age? He's maybe 3-4" head to tail. I'm guessing 2-3 months, but I was just curious if anyone else had other thoughts. Anyways, I'm really excited to watch him grow.

cute little guy, and ya he looks to me around the size of my cham which is around 2-3 months. where did you get him if I may ask? from a local pet shop? online store? breeder?

good luck with him, sounds like he is fitting in very nicely

I got him at the nearby Petco. I was a little iffy on buying a chameleon from a pet store, but I saw how active he was and seemed to have overall good health from the looks of it so I felt a bit better about it. I'm gonna try and make a vet appointment soon to make sure everything is as it should be. and thank you!
