Veiled vs pygmy

[rachelk]

Which do you think is easier to take care of?? A veiled chameleon or a pygmy?

 

[BocaJan]

A veiled - hands down.

Veileds-pygmies can be tricky.

Agreed with Julirs. Mostly, you see WC Pygmies, which can be hard to deal with because you don't know their age, and you don't know if they are sick. Veileds can be found easily CB.

thanks, i figured veileds were easier but i was just at a reptile pet store the other day and they had pygmies there and i fell in love with them, i've never gotten to handle one before and i got to hold a male and female and i just thought they were so cool, but i am perfectly fine with just sticking with my veiled!

 

[Julirs]

They are not completely hard to keep-they just don't last all that long!

 

[jernlee]

how long do pigmys live if they are captive breed?

 

[PITBULL]

If I'm not mistaken, I've read that their lifespan is 3 years. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

What type? CB or WC?
