Inside of the mough color.

So this is my cham.

He is 5 month old.

When he is fired up there is noticeable white line around his mouth. I notice that at the edge of the mouth the line is yellowish-green. So initially I though it could be a start of mouth rot. However, after reading the symptoms for mouth:

"Symptoms of chameleon mouth disease are loss of appetite, swelling of lips, skin discoloration and white mold chunks in oral mucous."

He does not show any of them

After closer inspection I notice that the color of the inside of the lip is also yellowish-green. Look at the pictures below. Please tell me if this is color of the inside of the lip is OK.

That's just his normal mouth color. The white lips and little bit of yellow corner is completely normal. Cham mouths range from pinkish to pea green, and all three of mine have different colors.

Mouth rot...these are not the best examples...but hopefully it will give you some idea of what it is....

See the little irregularity in the lip line in the left picture...that's what mouth rot often looks like when it begins...

Thanks for the reply. I did not think so, but it is never hurt to ask the experienced cham keepers.

I had similar concerns and ended up finding a lot of chams with yellow coloring in their mouths. Yours has a very pretty mouth color with her primary colors! She's gorgeous!!
