| These young "translucent" veiled chameleons Chamaeleo calyptratus were among the many beauties displayed last weekend at the Tampa Herp Show in Florida. Mike Monge of FLChams.com was offering them at his booth. They apear to be losing pigment generally over their whole bodies, but particularly in certain patches. I'm wondering if they'll have any adverse issues in the sun because they lack protective pigments against UV rays??? These were all in the 3 - 4-inch long range, so it will be interesting to see how they look as adults. Here are two of the wildest-looking ones he had....
