Well washington weather has been horrible! How much school you have left? What you going for? My sister about to move to Ft Worth.... So as far as chameleons go I must say they are super fun to watch grow. They start out about 2 inches long and next thing you know they are 6 inches long and their color variations are starting to get better granted they dont get extreme like panthers but I wouldnt trade mine for anything. I hope you enjoy your chameleon if/when you get it! Updates too! Keep it real Toxic Tessa.
