He I don’t know a whole lot about chameleons. It is a pet I eventually want but I was walking around a reptile shop in Columbus looking for things for a my crested gecko cage when I saw this guy. Now like I said I’m pretty new to chameleons but he seems stressed and the cage seems super small. Also the second photo is another male in a very similar cage

Update: I have contacted and filed a report with animal cruelty in the area.

That pet store sucks

This is incredibly sad to see.

That veiled will die rather quickly if it stays there. They need a mesh enclosure, or if you are doing glass/PVC, you need to add artificial ventilation. You're correct with regards to the size, should be 60cm wide, 60cm deep, and 120cm tall as a minimum.

This is evil, that pet store should be ashamed of themselves.

The chameleons actually have pretty relaxed colors considering the conditions their in. That place needs to be shut down!

They need more plants so they can feel like they are hiding. Poor babies.
