Update 8/30/25:  I have one five month old male available. I was planning to keep him for myself but he is related to my females so I have decided to sell him. He is the fastest growing and nicest one from his litter. He will be the last one available for at least four to five months. The exact juvenile male available is pictured last on this page.
 
This is the nominate subspecies of Jackson's chameleon that comes from the Machakos Hills of Kenya. They are also often called "rainbow" Jackson's chameleons. This is a smaller and more colorful species of Jackson's. And unlike the more common xantholophus, females of this subspecies can have horns just like the males! My breeder female has three horns so hopefully many of her daughters do too. The females can also be very colorful like the males. (The first picture is my male and the second picture is my female.) While this is a montane species that requires a night time temperature drop, the necessity of an extreme drop is often exaggerated. A night time temperature in the 60s is adequate. Day time temperatures should not exceed 85 for very long. Other than that they are a very hardy and wonderful species of chameleon to keep. They are about half of the size of xantholophus and one-third the size of panther chameleons making them much easier to house properly.
