Any specific reason why panther chameleons are so much more expensive than say veiled or jacksons?

Specifically, supply and demand.

Because they are one of the easiest to breed and the offspring are easy to raise. Makes a lot of sense doesnt it?

He's a handsome little guy, his eyes look a little sunk in though I dunno I've just read up on that being a sign of dehydration

On a reptile level, no cham is easy to breed imo...
With the exception of veileds, which species would you say is easier?

They dont need seasonal cues like a lot of the cheap ugly chams. If you know what a receptive female looks like all you gotta do is introduce a male. Pretty much like dogs. Not that hard and the offspring are easy to raise. I never lost a hatchling if it came out of the egg. I never had any problems breeding or incubating eggs.
Have you tried to breed anything besides panthers or veileds?
The reason is, they are just the popular cham. Kinda like Nike compared to.......whatever cheap brands of shoes are out there. They are cool, dont get me wrong, I like chameleons of all species. I dont think over priced. I think everything else is under priced and under appreciated.

I don't think they are that pricey, look back at the prices of panther chameleons five years ago, I price is so much less now simply because there are getting more of them around. I personally don't want the price to dip any lower like with the veiled as if there to cheap people will buy them for the sake of it without putting serious thought in to how they going to care for the reptile since chams are easy to keep if you don't do you research
