So Freddy is 9 months. The way he looks is he looks like he still has a lot of color to develop, but don’t they have most of their coloring by now? Everything is right such as humidity, basking temps, ambient temps, vitamins and calcium, uvb, etc so I def don’t think it’s anything health related. I think he’s just a slower grower lol but what’s weird is if this is how he will look does ambilobe seem correct? He kinda looks nosy faly? What’s ur take on it? He’s of course beautiful to me I’m just curious what nore experienced keepers think. Also I can’t get a pic of him fired up because honestly he rarely ever fires up and I don’t want to make him mad for my own sake. When he does though he literally turns pure white with the red dots and his blue bars turn almost black! It’s nuts. I hope I can photograph it sometime because it’s a sight to see! Also sorry the photos are awful. He decided to go to the darkest part of the cage to catch a cricket (that got out of his cup) and that’s when I grabbed these pics lol

My Ambilobe didn’t get his full colors until he was closer to 1.5 years old. Most chams do when they’re 1 year old so just give him time. He’s got more growing to do :)
 
My cham was about the same at that age. They all develop at their own speed, so I wouldn’t worry as long as you have correct husbandry. In a couple months or so he should have even more colour. He’s beautiful already, too!
 
Awesome thanks so much both of u! 😌😌 I’m hoping one of these days I can get a pic of his fired up before he gets all his colors because the black/white/red is AMAZING lol
 
Ok guys I swear I didn’t do this on purpose. I think he had a sense and thought I was talking sh** about him because he did this as I was going in to grab his food dish which he never cares about lmao but this isn’t him fully fired up at all but u can see he’s turning white and his bars are getting darker. I took the pics and got the heck out so he can calm down lmao
