Panther chameleon too small for its age

[marcsman16]

To be honest man they seem like healthy little dudes, i know they arent growing as fast as some others but what your saying make them sound healthy, id try and see if you can fatten them up with some worms, besides that just watch them carfully and make sure you dont see any other signs of anything out of the ordinary.

Ok
Thanks so much!
I will be able to sleep now...

No problem man glad to help just keep a eye on them and they should be fine! Hope the best for your little ones!

When panthers are kept in crowded conditions they grow slower even if all other conditions are optimal. The assumption is that their energy is used up through stress and not put towards growth. They are truly solitary creatures by nature! If at all possible, make sure they each have their own cage where they can not see other chameleons and they should suddenly sprout unless they have other health problems or unless their nutritional needs are not being met!

I’m confused, are they housed together and fed separately? I could be wrong, but my gut feeling is something is wrong here. Jann brought up the fecal exam, that’s a great idea, has this been done?

To be fair, OP never posted an Update thread, and is still an active member. So hopefully he will give us a "this cham 2 years later" update now.
