Veiled Growing Question

[Dylan Dutz]

When do adult male veiled chameleons reach their full length?

Also when do they start having a big growth spurt?

 

[Justin Carl]

mine grew like crazy for the first 10 months or so. after that it is slow and they just put on weight.

 

[Dylan Dutz]

When do they finally stop growing and reach their final length?

 

[Justin Carl]

i would say shortly after 1 year

 

[Dylan Dutz]

Thank you!

 

[dodolah]

if i am not mistaken, they never stop growing.
the only difference is that they grow way slower when they reached adulthood.

 

[Dylan Dutz]

They never stop growing?!

 

[Justin Carl]

they just put on mass. length tops out....

 

[dodolah]

yes.. but they grow real slow.
Not like the first year of his age.
when they reached adulthood, they will no longer experienced growth spurt.

That is why we never stop giving him supplements of calcium.
we just give him way less.
