Help with ageing my Yemen

Hey guys, I'm a very proud new parent to a male Yemen chameleon called Pascal. I've wanted one for 4 years and have done so much research I felt comfortable in the knowledge my new baby would be well cared for. The only question I have is what size should a 3 month old be? I researched into how big Yemenis grow to and terrain sizes however the bloke at the pet shop told me Pascal was 3 months old, I am beginning to doubt him since seeing pictures of 3 month olds on here. Pascal is approx 2" from nose to the base of his tail. He does seem to be showing signs of his markings (sorry if this is not he correct terminology) coming through. He is very healthy, active and eats very well. Can anybody help me with his age? Thanks in advance :) :) xx
 
Congratulations on your new cham and welcome to the forum!

I don't know how old Pascal is likely to be but I'm sure that with an owner who researched for 4 years, he will be getting the best care.

Congrats!
 
Pic update

Hey I'm just charging my phone up and will update with a picture in the next hour.
 
Hey guys! I've not forgotten, just having a little trouble uploading the image :( can anyone also help me with another query I have. I've just ( about 1 1/2hrs ago put in some red plastic vines as my little man didn't seem to enjoy walking on his plants (I think he was struggling to grip onto the leaves as he is too small) and was just sticking to his green vines. Since putting them into his enclosure he has started displaying very dark green, could very easily turn black, markings when going near the red vines. I have also moved his enclosure around to make it easier for my little buddy to move around. He seems to be fine everywhere else but doesnt seem keen on these red vines. They are the only plastic plants in his enclosure as the rest are real. Could this be the issue or is it their colou? I dont want to stress him, but as his new setup has only been this way for a short time I don't know if he just needs a little time to adjust?:confused:
Thanks in advance!
PS my hubby is going to upload a pic for me in a min :D
