Hello,

This is a montane species from tanzania. Its care is similar to a jacksons chameleon. They are a hardy livebearing species which bears 1-2 litters/year with approx 6-22 babies in each clutch. This species has proven to do well here in Central florida year round, with high humidity, plenty of shaded areas, and a variety of insects. This species has some amazing huese of blue,reds,maroon etc.. The males bare 3 strait horns, and the females bare one strait rostral, or none at all. a pair can be kept in a well planted cage that is 12 *24 *36. They prefer cooler temps, but warmer temps can be tolerated if humidity is adjusted accordingly. This is personally one of my favorite species.
