How much more color?

[toolman129]

My little guy has really started to show some color over the last month, and I was just wondering what more I can expect.

I was told he was between 4-5 months old when I brought him home, which would make him 5-6 months now. I figure he'll still get a bit more color but was wondering how far he might be along towards his adult colors. Just very curious how he is going to turn out

The first 2 pics are from 5-8-2010, the other 2 from today. Sorry for the quality.

Wow what beautiful colors in that third photo! His colors will probaby get more saturated and brighter. Maybe also more yellow? It's tough to say, it's a little different with each chameleon. But he's very handsome!

He should keep colorig up past 1 year.

Thanks guys. I know its hard to tell without much of a reference point, but does he look around the age I'm thinking he is? I'd guess around 6"-7" stv.

The coloring (to me) looks around the right age, but if he really is 7 inches snout to vent he's huge! How much does he weigh? My 11.5 month old male is just past 7 inches snout to vent and is 145-150 grams.

Edit: also, my veiled is big/heavy for his age compared to quite a few others.

Well, the length is a guess right now, as I don't have a tape measure at home. Just kinda looked at a pic on my phone and measured where he looked like he was on my hand while at work. And for weight I have nothing at my house to weigh him.

He looks very similar to mine when he started changing colors around 6-8 months of age except for the fact mine has been brown/black for the past week or so and idk why
