Hello there and welcome! Your Cham is a handsome one for sure! If you need any help just ask but first would you mind just going to the health clinic forum and clicking the pinned link above it called “ how to ask for help” and just fill out the form there so we are familiar with your Cham in case you do need any help? We would appreciate it a lot.
 
Welcome!!!! He is such a cutie! Would you mind filling out the husbandry form so we can make sure everything is correct! Also a picture of his cage top to bottom including lights would be awesome!!
