These were bought as veiled roughly 8 months ago.
However they are staying very small, the body is about 2 inches, the male has the lump on the rear foot like a veiled.

Dilepis flap neck chams in my view. A side on shot of the last one in the last pic would help please.

Not sure they dont have the typical dilepis spotting and markings but saying that their are quite a few subspecies of Dilepis and about four SS that display heel spurs will post some pics up of my dilepis when I get time as they are about the same size as the ones in the pics.

Thanks Rick and kroakykaren.
I will try to get some side on pics of them.
By the way Rick the 2 female yemens from you are doing great and are fantastic. I especially love the smaller one with it showing yellow instead of white under her throat and belly.

These are Ch. calyptratus that are suffering from a type of Metabolic Bone Disease and as such, their growth has been stunted. You can see fractures in the limbs. You'll probably want to consult a vet but with this extent of growth retardation, the animal will probably not do well in the long run.
