Age, gender, and what color?

[Mcdaniel]

so we got this little guy named papito. Wondering if anyone can tell gender ( we think a boy) what color he may be and how old he is. He's a panther

looks to be about 1-2 months old. I doubt anyone will be able to tell you the colors without knowing who it's parents are and their locality and so on. As far as sex goes you would need to post photos of its tail base and keep in mind It may be too young to sex.

We have had him for almost a month now. He has a little bump at the base of his tail

Petco. We don't have any breeders here and we really wanted a panther.

Pet shops aren't the best resource for husbandry, so check out this link to help you. https://www.chameleonforums.com/threads/basic-husbandry.38769/

Thank you! We have had them before just never a little one this small. Always gotten adult aged ones. We didn't have a breeder in our area so we were kinda stuck getting one from there I searched for awhile.

Would you be able to post better pictures of the base of the tail please? I’m not seeing a bulge and colors look more female, but it also may still be to young to really tell.

Best I can get right now we handled it earlier and I dont want to stress him out by getting him out again!

You bought a baby panther at petco?? Can you post a picture of it's home? The whole thing

We bought his cage and everything inside it from a different place it was a reptile store and him from petco.

And yes we have a glass cage. We have cats and we had a screen cage but they kept getting up there by it and they messed up a side. Until he is bigger we have to keep him in a glass cage for his own safety. This one has airflow through and we keep his temp and humidity at a perfect spot for his age hes very good at hunting for himself.

male.

its not bad, but a few little changes need to be made. you need a linear uvb bulb. What is the basking temp? I don't think they should have one at this age.

 

[Mcdaniel]

The one bulb is uvb and the top basking temp is 80 and lower is 75 i spray him about 3-4 times a day and he has little crickets we feed him. He eats alot? he shows alot of red clothes and his beard seems to get red when he gets upset

plus we have a dripper for water

Yea, I know you have UVB. Like I said, you need a linear uvb bulb, not a regular compact bulb.
