The Viellard’s Chameleon gecko is a close relative of the popular Bauer's chameleon gecko and distantly related to the ever popular crested geckos and gargoyle geckos. They are unusual both in appearance and behaviour, what these geckos lack in size they certainly make up for in character. They are a laid back species that become very tame. Viellard’s Chameleon Gecko is the second most commonly encountered Chameleon Gecko species after Bauer’s but they do not grow quite as large and the scalation and colouration is different between the two species.

In the wild they would be found in low shrubs were they would hunt small insects eat fruit and nectar from flowers, they are adept climbers that prefer to rest on thin twigs. 

Chameleon Geckos make an excellent pet species for those with more limited space as their care is virtually identical to that of crested and gargoyle geckos but in a more compact enclosure. 

They are unusual both in appearance and behaviour, what these geckos lack in size they certainly make up for in character. They are a laid back species that become very tame, rather than running fast they tend to shuffle along on their belly or use slow and deliberate movement to avoid catching a predator’s eye. They don’t rely on speed to escape predators. Interestingly they can squirt a sticky distasteful mucous from glands in their tail if startled, the same as in Australian spiny tailed geckos (Strophurus) however we have never seen a chameleon gecko do this as they are far too laid back.

Like virtually all the animals we sell, these were bred right here in store, so you get all the benefits of buying direct from the breeder as well as from a renowned 5 Star licensed pet shop. What more could you want…
