Wondering if My Panther Chameleon is Male?

[Coltcorban99]

Got a panther chameleon in November, after Thanksgiving, at around 6 weekd old, and the person I got it from said it was a male. I took his word for it, but now I am having questions because he has still not gained a lot of color. This is my first chameleon and have had trouble defining the gender of it. Wondering if somebody could help me define the gender and answer if it is common for males not to gain color for 7 months. Here of some pics of him right now.

Not a male panther, What locale is she supposed to be?

 

[Coltcorban99]

Ambilobe

Also, if it is really a female, when will she start laying eggs so I can be prepared.

Definitely a girl eggs can come anytime from 6-10 month but most the time around 8 months

How can you tell is a girl, just for future reference. And is there any possible chance it is male?

 

[bobcochran]

Sorry, no chance of being a male. It takes a little practice to sex babies.

males have a small bulge underneath the tail. also they tend to have a tail thicker at the base and should have gained color by now if it was ambilobe. sorry to say this is a female

^^^ agree, but a gorgeous female nonetheless!!

Ok. Thanks. I was also looking to get a female later, but now I think I want a male. Do any of ou by chance have a male ambilobe that is under $200 and can ship. I live in Oregon.
