Rhampholeon brevicaudatus

[Lucille]

I saw an ad for these and they look like the perfect starter chameleon: hardy, cute, and not expensive. Anyone have any experience with them?

They are cute and inexpensive and fairly hardy as well. But the majority of these are wild caught and can have some health issues that go along with that but over all they are a nice little cham. This is a good article on Brookesia but most of the ideas can be applied to Rhampholeon as well. http://www.chameleonnews.com/year2002/sept2002/brookesia/brookesia.html
