OK, here are some pics of our babies. Mike sent me two females and a male...I think...."Stripe" is by himself, then "Dot" and "Yolanda" (OK, I didn't name them!), then all three together. Educated opinions?

It's pretty hard to tell at that age, but the tail length is a good determining factor. I think that you are right with names from what i can see.

Jerm,

Meaning that maybe both Stripe and Dot are males? The things I'm looking at are the dorsal crests, overall size, and eye turrets (which you can't see very well in these pics, but they're much more patterned in the two smaller guys).

Thanks for replying!

I am curious myself. I have heard them talked about alot but never really any specifics about their husbandry.

OK, here are some different pics...not as clear, but they show tails and profiles a little better. The first pic is the for-sure female (I think). Just for fun, the last pic is Drew's face when he "unwrapped" the chams on his birthday...

Will, if there are two males, should I separate them?

The first I would say is a female, the second a male and the third I am leaning towards male too due to tail length. Coloration is hard to go by at that age.

Female, Male, Male.

Tails and the ridges on the back are good to go by, but the crest above their eyes can also give some minor hints. Males have a more developped ridge.

At this age, Give them some larger living space and you will be fine. But consider buying a second enclosure, and another female?
