260g is a HUGE cage for a female veiled. but, good luck.
P.S.
I have a 260g for my melleri, he is more than 5x larger than the size your female will reach.... just to give you an idea of how big that cage is...

Nothing wrong with a large cage so long as she finds food and water and basking/UVB fine. Just because people sometimes keep them in itty-bitty cages doesnt mean one must or should.

Thanks sandra...
Btw, she seems happy, especially with the arbutus i just got for her, she seems to like it... and it looks beautiful (In my eyes) im reaally inexperienced at making nice cages though lol..
Will take some pics later, my tripod snapped (Its a tiny one) and its now having surgery... With superglue.
Thanks for all the kind words everyone

The issue with a HUGE cage is tracking their food intake, poop condition and consistancy and schedule, temps and humidity. Huge cages are hard for people without a lot of room. PLUS huge cages mean more to clean and more to plant.
Think about it... if your cham only stays in one area of that HUGE cage you are wasting all that space. And you won't see her patrolling the groundsr like a male. Females aren't like males that like to have beat on their chests and be proud of the space they survey. Females just want a hot date and a nice dinner... then a good place to dig.
If you have the room, then have at it. I can't afford to have huge cages like that for small chams.

Rofl, Wow i am smart
Thats why they call them Yemen chameleons for short...
Same goes for the panthers... nosy be, ambilobe, sambava.... those are all cities in Madagascar where the particular cham is found.

Yemen isn't in Saudi Arabia, it is Southeast.
