hey i bought a baby veild chameleon in april so it is probally about 5 or 6 months old now and it is showing almost now coloration or patterns and it is still verry small. My friend has one that is younger and it is huge compared to mind and beautiful. I put him outside all day when it is sunny and use a uvb when it isnt sunny and i give him calcium and he eats crix flies and mealworms. He is still only about 7 or 8 inches long can anyone tell me whats wrong.

I have a veild and he is about 6 month old and about 7 or 8 in long w/o tail. I don't think you have a problem. How much do you feed him? Right now homer eats about 12-14 crickets a day. How big is your friends is you don't mind me asking?

Also homer was about 1.5 inches when I got him and now about 7-8. I think that is a big difference.

Sorry if this doesnt' help.
