this cham is blowing my mind!

[Dr O]

he’s the only cham that i ever got from Prism, one of Pixel’s most amazing sons but who died by 1 ½. only got one clutch with very few eggs, and only this one hatched. he’s about a year old, and has never been anything but this green/dark barring. this week i bred 6 pairs of chams, and when i showed him his first female there was this instant explosion of color!!! then he happily helped a virgin lose her cherry! not only had he never given me a clue that he had these colors in him, they’re also very far from his lineage. he’s been staying pretty bright since. the green shots were taken just a few weeks ago. the camera really isn’t even doing justice to what he has, it’s pretty unbelievable. will update as he does!

Thats awesome and he looks incredible!!!!! Just to clarify, this is the same cham in each pic?

 

[Dr O]

lol! well, NOW it's correct; and yes, that's all him. essentially some quick shots i last took of him from April 25th, and he remained that exact color for much of this past year until the colored photos from June 7th when he lit up like a Warhol pop print! fyi, DOH was 8/18/14.

(for the poor souls who may have seen the accidental insertion of a shirtless Dr. O w/ 2 other panthers crawling on him....all i can do is apologize. that was not him in that shot; it's all corrected now.)

So he is now a man showing his man colors lol

 

[absolutbill]

Wow, that's one incredible panther!!!

 

[NHenn]

Wow he looks great Dr. O! Doesn't he remind you of the Nosy Valiha's that are starting to be imported? His colors and patterns look very similar to that local. Any chance the female could have been a Nosy Valiha?

nope, I bred the dam myself from Pixel and Ms. Piggy; and have all of their lines. straight Ambilobe. however i did brain fart this, he's a son of Bacchus, not Prism. Bacchus was my cham who was featured in the July 2014 Reptiles Magazine Breeder's Choice. and as Bacchus was red and blue, he's even further from his roots than I originally thought!

WOW He looks incredible.

 

[Craigwyatt]

That has got to be the most dramatic color change I've ever seen. He is simply amazing. You have a lot of beautiful Chams. He fits right in.
