Show me the inside of your Ambanja!

[luckykarma]

Got back from a frustrating but informative day at the vet with this mysterious gaping issue.

The vet commented on the how yellow his mouth was in places and wondered if that's just normal for some Ambanja's.

Can you upload pics of your Ambanja's open mouth if you have them? Much appreciated.

I don't have any pictures currently but I had an ambanja a couple of years ago that had some yellow around the edges. The rest of the mouth was more of a white color however.

My guy has the yellow corners on his lips. I just don't recall his mouth colors in the past.

Well I don't have any pics of the mouth wide open but here are a couple that show the coloration in the mouth for the most part. If necessary I can get some open mouth pics tomorrow.

Hope this helps,

Todd

That's an easy one with Sid, he's always willing to show his chompers. Good timing too, I ran upstairs to get my camera for something else and saw this. I think it's pretty common for panthers from this area to have yellow mouths. Nothing to worry about, imo.

Appreciate it Todd. Found this on the net. Looks yellow.

The reason is because if it is unnatural it points to kidney issues.

Cool thanks Kent!

Gorgeous Cham!!

 

[Kent67]

Thanks. He's a WC from last year I talked Mike out of, somehow. I've got some eggs cooking from him and one of Brantley's (FlChams purple bar) daughters. I've just picked up 3 wild caught females in the last month and a half, too. Kinda on an Ambanja kick right now.

Put me on the list for one of that bad boy's sons.

Once they hatch I will be wanting a female or three Kent

See ya,

Todd
