There is NO set weight.
I don't know anything about panthers, but i know there is no set weight for any chameleon at any time in their life.
Captive female veileds increase in body weight by as much as 40-50%. take off a bit for panthers, thir clutches aren't as big.
I answered cause it didn't seem like anyone was answering...
hopefully you'll get a panther-person talking to you soon.

...Luna gained about 1/3 her weight when she was gravid (infertile eggs). Before she laid she was 96g, her eggs weighed 33g. Keep in mind she is a veiled and very small for her age (13 months).
