baby pardalis (nosy mitsio) with 'horn'

A follow chameleonkeeper from the Netherlands asked me to post these pictures of a young nosy mitsio that he hatched out. He would like to know if anyone one else has ever seen a pardalis with a horn.





for the original post on the Dutch cham forum:

Any feedback is much appreciated,

Suzanne

Strange very strange I never seen a panther with a horn. If in fact that is a horn. And I'm not sure that is a N.mitsio.

We have hatched out several clutches of Nosy Mitsios and have never seen a horn on them. Did any of the other siblings have this? It is more than like a genetic defect. He's cute though.

Jerambis is on a distinguished road
In the first picture his horn looks like a human's nose. Like a human crossed with a cham. Weird.

I think it looks like a little human nose too. He's cute though. I would like to see some more pics as this little guy grows. It will be interesting to see how he turns out!

I think you're probably right, it doesn't seem to have the same structure as a horn of, say, a jacksonii.
But it's more fun to call it a horn

And to answer someone else's question; no, none of the siblings have this.

I have clutches of Nosy Mitsio's and none of them have "horns" or "nubs." He does seem to look like a pardalis from the photos... could be a genetic defect? Or a growth?

Interesting.

Any idea the source of the female? WC or CB?

Evolution? Furcifer rhinocerdalis anyone?
