Veiled chameleons are easily recognizable reptiles that are commonly kept as pets. They are named for the triangular protrusion on their heads, which is known as a “casque.” Both males and females have casques, and they are relatively similar in body size, but females are slightly stouter. The namesake casque continues to grow throughout the chameleon’s life, and can be as much as two inches long. Read on to learn about the veiled chameleon.[1][2]

These chameleons can grow up to 24 in. long from head to tail. They have triangular casques growing from their heads, which are larger on older adults.

Their coloration can be patterned with bands or mottling as well. ...
