I know it seems obvious, but I've never owned a veiled, so as silly as it sounds I wasn't sure if their bodies were the "same" as a jacksons.
The owner actually wanted to trade me some crested geckos for him, but that's not happening, but I was going to offer to take him off his hands.
You can't do worse than the current owner if you take advice from the forum standards round here. This is a good place to start - https://www.chameleonforums.com/blo...-keepers-young-veiled-panther-chameleons.htmlI know it seems obvious, but I've never owned a veiled, so as silly as it sounds I wasn't sure if their bodies were the "same" as a jacksons.

18x18x36 all screen cage. Live plants, willow stick and faux jungle vine (looks like beef jerky sticks to me). There's a plastic fern that hangs from the back and we have a cool mist ultrasonic humidifier that feeds to the top and condenses on the fern causing a drip. He has a 5.0 uvb bulb and a heat bulb. His highest basking spot is usually reading 85-86 and the lower portion of the cage is in the 70's.
His primary diet is crickets, dusted in calcium once daily, multivitamins once weekly and calcium w/d3 one day a month. Crickets are gutloaded parrot pellets, because we also have birds, greens, orange, carrots and whatever else I feel like throwing in with them. The dubia are fed the same diet and are dusted as well, but I'm confused on what size dubia and superworms he can eat, so I've been limiting his intake to crickets for the most part with smaller dubia. Blah blah I know. Anyhow, all the corners are sealed so I'm able to cup feed him his gutloaded and dusted crickets, but I also let a couple loose in his cage to give him something to do, he's an awesome hunter. Now sure if I'm missing anything. Does this sound good, should I take in the veiled? Would he be ok in an 18x18x36 or would he need a larger cage. I know for a fact that he is in a 16x16x20 right now.
<sigh> I think in 30 years I'll be on TLC as the star of an Animal Hoarders show....lol I'm addicted to the abused and neglected animals, even my potty mouthed, cussin like a sailor, macaw.
This picture made me cringe... even get him for free.
