I am intrested in getting a cham i have been studying them for like 4 years now! I was wondering would you prefer a pygmy or veild???

Veiled all the way.
More active, easier to care for, better colors, bigger, eat a lot more which is the coolest thing about chameleons.
Plus, you just cant have 1 pygmy.
Actually you cant have one chameleon period.

lol what do you mean you cant just have one???

1 pygmy chameleon would be very boring.
Having just one chameleon in general sucks!
You get your first one, then a couple months later another, then another, then another, then another, then another, another, another

careful, you have been warned
my 2nd chameleon is coming. I can't wait!

It is all up to you and what YOU want… After all it will be yours to take care of. Do you want a large chameleon that will take a large cage? Or do you want a small tank with plants and a small chameleon inside?
Both are easy to care for, however each has very different requirements. Veild will like it hot, dry and lots of large food, a pygmy will like it cool, humid and lots of small food.

Both are very fun to keep, I like my pygmy chameleons a ton, but I like veilds too… In the end it is all up to you.

Uhhh i thought veilds like it damp like with misting and humidity

mild humidity is fine 40 to 60% for veiled.
but pygmy likes it more humid than veileds
