velied breeding age

[schegini14]

At what age do you retire a male or female veiled chameleon of breeding.

I have had veiled females that are almost 5 years of age still produce good clutches of eggs that all hatched and the babies were healthy.....however, I don't breed them constantly. Don't know if that makes a difference or not.

I found a male. He is two and a half. Im just wondering why someone would sell a handsome looking veiled.

At 2 1/2 (if they are telling you the truth) he's still within the age to reproduce.

Can't tell you why someone would sell him...could be any number of reasons.

Kinyonga- Have you seen the ad in Kingsnake. Its the one from Tribal reptile. He is a bit pricy. How much is the normal range of buying an adult male breeder

 

[kinyonga]

No...I didn't see the ad on Kingsnake.
I live in Canada so I can't really tell you what a good price is in the States. Maybe someone else will tell you?
