Giant Verrucosus Chameleon??

[JunioR]

Saw him at my LPS. Does anyone have one or know anything about these chameleons? Here are some pictures. They were asking $300.

Yes, it is also called a giant spiny chameleon or simply Verrocosus Chameleon. It is not super common in the pet trade, but $300 is a bit high for a male (appears to be male from the pic). Unless it is CBB, I wouldn't even consider paying that much for one. Your talking about panther money for $300!! If it were me, I wouldn't pay more than $150 (if it were CBB only!).

300 for 1 verru is crazy money... should be 100 max...

$300 is WAY too much... I paid $100 for a pair about a year and a half ago, so $300 for one is just mindblowing to me.
