We have a veiled and she has always puffed up and gotten darker and threatens to bite...very vicious lol, nothing to worry about.

Veileds aren't a chameleon you can hold... they're more of a display animal because they stress really easily and don't like handling at all. I never hold mine unless i'm cleaning his enclosure.
