Sex of Veiled Chameleon

[bfan94]

I just got a veiled chameleon and was told that it is probably a female, but I'm not so sure. The veil looks male I think, but I'm no sexing expert. Any ideas?

Well I can't see his rear spurs, but if this is a female it's cross dressing! lol

Somebody told you the pictured calyptratus is a female??? That's a male!! At that size and age I don't see how anyone could guess female.

Okay, seemed like signs were pointing in that direction, but I'm new to the chameleon world. I was also told that he is 8 months old, do you think that's accurate?

Male! Judging by the size of the casque.

He could be 8 months old, but I would guess older.

I'm with brownie64, his color is so good probably a little older than 8 months.

Gonna say male it's too big and bright to be female, does it have the spurs on the back of its legs?
