@squeekz1992 and thats what i am asking

 

[squeekz1992]

I know, I just meant like what kind do you have, or are you looking for ones that can be housed together?

 

[koray77]

Now i have africa cha. but if i can find cha. living together i ll sell it.

 

[squeekz1992]

Ohh I get it.

It's almost twice the size of the minimum size recommended for adult panthers, so would be good for a spoiled panther or one of the bigger species like oustalets maybe?

As far as I have heard, I think pygmie chams are the only ones that can be housed together. Chameleons are mostly solitary animals unless they are looking to mate and then they should only be together to do 'the deed' and then separated again.

At least that is my understanding!

Spoiled panther... Nice! How about splitting the enclosure down the middle so you don't take any chances? It looked big enough to do that!

Some chameleons can be housed together from any species, but its a risk. Unless you are very experienced with the species you have/want to house together, it would be best to just keep them separate. I would put a divider in the cage and just keep them separate. Usually when two are housed together one or both get so stressed that they can stop eating/drinking and eventually become very ill or die. Pygmy chameleons can usually be housed together, and sometimes mellers chameleons (but they are very large!)

In Amsterdam they kept several male veileds together in this vivarium @ the zoo. There was another vivarium the same size that housed several females.

I have met other keepers who kept 1.3 veileds together for years. I've also read on the forum of a male panther and male quadricornis that got along well in a free-range habitat.

It depends on the individual personalities so you really have to watch it. If one is aggressive to the other, the submissive one will likely die.

If you run into problems, you would be best selling one and possibly trying another individual until you get a couple chill bros that like to hang out together.

I would recommend just keeping one though, or partitioning the vivarium so you have two separate cages in one.

SO you are saying it is not about species it is all about personalities am i right ?
