Help identifying sex

[hiddendark]

New panther chameleon. First-time chameleon owner and trying to determine the sex.
Please help as I know males and females need different care. I am also ordering plants to go full live, but have not gotten them yet.

Thanks in advance.

This one is easy…you have a beautiful boy. What were you told is his age? His colors look to have come in fully, so he is at least 6 or more months old.

They told me about a year old, and they said it was a girl. I bought him from Petco, so I had my doubts. We will be naming him Yoshi.

Wow…they hadn’t a clue. If they gave you any husbandry advice, it’s likely wrong. If you need some husbandry guidance, we’re more than happy to help. Or if you haven’t yet found https://chameleonacademy.com/ or Neptune the Chameleon on YouTube and other social media, those are the most reliable sources of info.

It is a male. Female Panther chameleon are not colorful like males. But they are downright beautiful in their own right. Females are like burnt Salmon pink color.
