6 months is too old imo... get yourself a baby its much funner.
my female veiled was around 3 months when i got her, and she BLEW UP... in size, not literally blew up that'd be wierd.
anyway i'm having an excellent time trying to distinguish her new patterns as she ages.
my 7 month old (female) has some blue on her crown and spine, yellow, and some orange (a dark orange)
shes amazing. her yellows really show when she is sleeping too.
i love her and i love her because of my experience watching her age.
please get a young one. it's much funner
she is a newton veiled chameleon, and i got her from FLCHAMS. deff reccomend that website. cheap prices and good selection of breeds. the customer support is meh. no complaints, but it feels like a home-run bussiness tbh.
i've heard kammerflage has amazing service. but they are very good breeders imo. not a single problem with my chameleon. AT ALL
she shed about a week after i got her, and hasnt stopped growing since!
