Size vs. Age

[bartholomew101]

I have had my veiled chameleon since October 16, 2012. Then his body was about 1.5 inches minus tail if that. now I want to say he is 6 inches long minus the tail. Is this a good size? I do not know how old he was when i got him but I keep seeing pictures of other peoples chams and they all seem so much bigger then him.

According to my vet he is healthy and all my lighting is fine same with feedings and other things. I just feel like he is a bit small.

Some grow faster than others. He will keep growing in length till 18 months/ 2 years . What are you feeding him and how much? Can you post pics along with a marker ie coin or measure?

If your post photos of him your hand, we can guestimate age for you.

I'd estimate he's about 6 months old.

does that mean when i got him he was only one month old?
