Female Panther confusion

[Pantherpaws]

So I have a female Panther chameleon named Star and she is 4 months old but she is digging. She gets dark to bask and when she grumpy(she isn't a morning chameleon). Now I'm not too worried but I'm confused cause she doesn't show gravid colors and I know that's not paticularily necessary always but she actually turns lighter when she is digging and when she gaped at my male. Is it possible she just does the opposite colors than normal? I have laying bins in her cage but maybe a bin would do? I'm unsure? She's been eating normal if not more than before now.

Welcome to the forums!

when she gaped at my male.

Why is she gaping at a male at 4 months old? Is she in the same cage with a male? Are you trying to breed her this young? That is not a good idea.

No I am not breeding I was seeing if she was gravid i only took the barrier I have between them away and then replaced it shortly afterwards. I'm definitely not breeding at this age I know it's a year till you even think about it. And I couldn't tell if she was gravid otherwise than maybe some digging like I said I was confused on her colors and I have now come to my own conclusion since she first started to show pink in her throat about an hour after I posted this and is fully gravid this morning I suppose I'll tell my story on my profile before I ask questions for help as I can see the perception of me has been steered the wrong way. I have done days and hours of reading before getting these and will take every proper action needed to get things the right way. Sorry if I have a couple mistakes. I suppose that's why I'm here though.

So your 4 month old pantheris IS gravid? Or the panther you thought was 4 months old is gravid? Or you thought your 4 month old panther was gravid but that was just a mistake??

Please don't take offence we are only trying to help. From what you posted it was a bit confusing ferritinmyshoes was just making sure of the situation I'm sure her intention was not to offend that's not her personality she was just concerned, and wanted to help. Again I hope what I'm going to say don't offend you it's not my intent, but I believe your cham to be too young to be gravid, and you are being concerned for no reason.

Well that's good I'm paticularily weak in my writing and reading comprehension. So bear with me! So well I'm confused as to why she's digging. I got her from this website. Not that I've gonna through more and more research everyday I find she wasn't from a well known breeder and they told me she was around 3 months

 

[Pantherpaws]

Oops that send before I was finished

 

[Pantherpaws]

She's from Panther company but here is the sires. Anyways my camera is bad and in that

So your 4 month old pantheris IS gravid? Or the panther you thought was 4 months old is gravid? Or you thought your 4 month old panther was gravid but that was just a mistake??

Idk honestly she keeps digging I think she is but and I thought she was before. She has a more red tint that goes farther and looks deeper in real life my camera on my phone is just lame. I'm looking for answers.

Yes she is a Yellow Body Blue Bar Ambilobe. But I directly quoted what they said to me in an email. "Around 3 months" and they told me this January 23, 2016.

Thank you does she always stay that way once she is gravid?

 

[JGuinan007]

But I thought Pink Panthers were Ankaramy? Forgive me I don't know all that much about Panther locales.

Yes pink panthers are ankaramy! Here's the male I bred her to!

she pretty much shows those colors all the time! More intense when she sees a male!

 

[Pantherpaws]

Ok well she is just now pink and receptive as I see. I finally got it. Thank you. Idk why she's digging? Any thoughts. And yours is beautiful and calm looking! My girl is aggressive and wants nothing to do with hands.
