very cute... they start getting colors between 5-7 months.

 

[Cibarra982]

cool, thank you. I love him to death. I never thought id get so close to a reptile.

His full coloration will take some time though, after 12 months is when you can start to see their TRUE colors.

what locale is your little man?

 

[Cibarra982]

alex, i dont understand your question?

 

[VeiledChams]

Locale- ambilobe, tamatave, sambava, etc. Those aren't random names. Its the name of the town from where the panthers come from. Nosy Be's come from Nosy Be in Madagascar.

 

[Cibarra982]

oh, im not sure he is a cross breed he is part, ambolobi, noesybe, and sambava. forgive the spelling...lol

Did you get him from Bruce G. or East bay vivarium?

 

[alexbrock]

his colors should be very unpredictable since hes a cross. pretty sure he will have tons of different colors.

 

[Cibarra982]

I got him at the east bay viv and I hope so that's what I wanted but we love him no matter what.

He's from Bruce G. then! He runs chameleonparadise.com Check out who his sire is!

Some take longer to get intense colors that others, but they all eventually do! My ambilobe took foreeeever to get bright colors, almost 7 months, while my Nosy Be was a light blue the day he came out of the box at 3 months old. So it's different for all of them but they do all eventually color up to their full potential.

Yours looks like a cutie! I love the little baby chameleons.
