Please help me with Veiled Age

[kiwilulu]

New chameleon owner here. I received Kiwi 2 weeks ago and was told he was around 5 months old. In the past 3-4 days he shed his skin and started showing some colors and looks older now. This picture was taken tonight right after he went to sleep.
Anyone care to estimate the age of this guy?
I am trying to gauge how much food to give him. (Currently giving him mostly dubias, with a few crickets and worms)
Soon I will post a picture of the Lulu, another chameleon I received at the same time - a little younger, it seems

Thanks!

Welcome to the forums. I love to see them sleep. He's a handsome boy and he looks around 5 months old.

Thanks for the reply!
I was feeding him every other day, but will start giving him daily dubias (4, about 3/4in).

Your little guy needs a large variety of well gutloaded feeders. Try some flies, moths, silkworms, hornworms, butterworms, Phoenix worms, stick bugs, mantis and Superworms. There's a member here on the forums that sales allot of these feeders and Gutload for a very reasonable price. I also use Coastal Silkworms for Silks and Horns. Here's my blog for how I recommend raising beautiful and healthy veileds and I'll also get you a link to Nick the bug guy.
