Proper temps for veiled chams

Hello,

I was wondering what the proper temperatures are for veiled chameleons depending on their age. I have seen several sources claiming that the basking spot for veileds should be 95-105 degrees and the rest of the enclosure should be between 75-85, but it seems like I've seen several posts here that say a basking spot should only be 80-85 degrees. Is this true for veileds? And how does their age affect their proper temperatures? Should the basking temp increase with their age?

Thanks in advance for any help!
 
80-85 is more appropriate for babies, you can increase the basking temp as they age, but I would never do over 100. 90 is more appropriate IMO.
