Ambilobe or Sambava

I always wonder which locale it belongs to. Do you know his age?

[windmark]

Is he already an adult?

 

[westcoastchameleons]

Thanks,

Yea, RB Ambilobe. The age is a little difficult, I have one that looks similar and when he was young (up to 7 months) he had completely red bars, at 7 months he started getting more and more blue in his bars. I have heard and read that many red bars go from completely red barring to having a good bit of blue barring then back to red barring. Now looking at yours I think he may be getting more blue in his barring (making me think he is about 8 months) another possibility is that he may be getting more red in his barring (which would make me think he is closer to a year and a half or two). I am leaning towards 9 months by looking at his legs and head.

How can his leg reveal the age? What's the criteria? I really hope that he will get more blue in his barring.

Only time will tell. Ambilobes are all different, some will greatly change with age some won't change at all with age. Your guy isn't going to change into a full blue bar, but he may get a little more blue then as he gets older the reds will start coming back through his barring.
