panther or veiled?

[jeepnix]

I just recently lost my female jacksons and I was looking at something bigger with more coloration like a veiled or some local panther like sambava or something like that. I have enclosures big enough for both of them, I like photography as much as many of you and I will be taking MANY photos of my animals. the only thing is I can't decide which one to get. please help me and give me your opinion of why I should choose one instead of the other.

either ones are great imo, veields are more hardy, but not much difference in care for a panther.

it really all comes down to color and personal taste

vieleds and panthers have many personalities and really random if one becomes agressive or really docile.

if i were get both lol

I vote panther.... when I kept veileds they were much nastier as far as their temperment and I think there is a wider color variety with the panthers.

Panthers are suppose to be less aggressive then veiled's. I personally LOVE them both. I have 4 veileds and 2 Nosy Mitsio's. Panthers come in more variety of colors but I have seen many beautiful Veiled's. as you can see I cant choose one over the other. but my next chameleon is going to be a Nosy Faly so I vote them lol

I only have a few years experience, but in my opinion, the panthers have a much better temperment, and color. My veiled is young, but extremely mean, however I still enjoy having him and have no plans of getting rid of him. So, like most other people on here, I can't decide either.

The one major differnce in their care that I haven't noticed anyone else post yet is that I use a 10.0 UVB bulb for my veiled, and a 5.0 UVB bulb for my panther.

care is acctually almost the exact same, i keep my veileds a little warmer than the panthers and off the panthers a bit more water... other thn that exactly the same.
i say you cant got wrong with either,
