Hello, welcome to the forum :). That's not the best photo....in fact from here it looks like she might have spurs.....4 inches suggests she is about 3 months old, but they grow at different rates so it's impossible to be sure. Here is a great basic caresheet I recommend to all new people with Veileds - https://www.chameleonforums.com/blogs/chameleonsinmyhouse/395-veiled-chameleon-care-sheet.html

My girl particularly likes her Schefflera plant. Other often recommended (easy to keep alive) plants include Pothos vines -nice broad leaves to hide in and drink off. Here is a safe plant list - http://www.flchams.com/safe_plant_list.asp
 
dope cham! put in a ficus benjamine or an umbrella plant they love that shit! and put in some twigs going across the cage. fake plants/leafs, hangin vines, be creative! i just try to give them as much shit to climb as possible
 
a 24x24x48 might be a little to big for that little Gal i hope she dont get lost in there haha. But yea ficus or pothos you should be good !
 
Please be aware that once sexually mature veiled females can lay eggs even when not mated and need a suitable place in the cage to dig to shownyounwhen they are ready.
