Age Help

[perkinschammie]

Hello! I recently ordered a male veiled chameleon online, and got him on Nov. 10th. He is meant to be breeder so I'm very curious as to what his age is. The website I ordered him from said he is approximately 6-12 months, but I would definitely like a more definite answer.
I'm not very good at measuring lengths and I don't have a tape measurer, but I'd say he is about 6 inches from snout to vent. He displays a lot of color variations, but mainly whenever he is angered (for reasons such as opening his tank to mist / feed / clean as he doesn't really like people interaction).
I will include a picture; please help me figure out his age!

He looks around 4 to 5 months old to me.

My guess would be around 6 months. That front right leg looks curious.

If you don't mind my asking, what do you mean by curious?

 

[jpowell86]

It's probably the picture, it just looks almost like the front right leg has some beginning stages of MBD. Maybe just a weird angle or something.

I would go with 6 months or even older.

Please post some more photos of that leg. Also you can see photos of my boy Sage at all ages in the link below.

You are observant! The hind leg looks a little suspect, too.

Oh dear, you guys have got me worrying! Are there treatments for this? :/

 

[perkinschammie]

What do I need look for? Should we get him to a vet? Are y'all saying that because of appearance of atrophy in the hind leg?

It looks like it could be a onset of MBD, and yes there is treatment calcium. Your vet will probably give him liquid calcium, but you need to make sure he is getting the correct supplement's at his feeding. Calcium with d3 twice a month, multivitamin twice a month, and calcium without d3 at every other feeding.
