Hi when you say type do you mean blue bar /red bar

Yes please, I'm not sure

I would say he’s a yellow body blue bar Ambilobe.

Looks like he has MBD, what is his husbandry and supplement schedule like?

 

[Flick boy]

Hi would you mind filling out a husbandry form if you have not already so done . Thanks

Yeah where is the form? Thanks

 

[jackthejellydragon]

If you fill out the form we can help you. MBD is a disease that is caused by improper lighting and supplementation.

Oh I don't know that he has that, he has a lot of uv light, ambient temp is about 24-5c basking about 31.5c humidity 60%

He shoots round the cage no problem when there's locusts, he eats large box every 1 to 2 days

The part people are concerned about is that his limbs (especially his elbows) look abnormal in your picture. You probably are giving him UV, calcium, and vitamins, but chameleons are notoriously delicate. The people asking questions are looking to figure out if something might be off so they can fix it before it causes him (more) problems or kills him

Oh yeah no, all that's fine I've got 3 chameleons raised a vieled since my thumb nail size he's about 2 now, it's all pretty easy to be honest, I just wanted to know the colour code, if you like lol

 

[jackthejellydragon]

that back leg is telling me he probably has MBD. MBD needs to be stoped early. It won't get much better but can stop. he doesn't look to bad but it gets worse.

 

[TayloredExotics]

Unfortunately, I don't see a linear UV lamp; T5 are recommended, but you can get away with a t8. There look to be a few other things that could be addressed by the help form, but the light alone may lead to the start of MBD. I assume you have a compact bulb, which are sold without adaquate disclaimers; mainly that they're pretty much useless if the animal isn't within 3 inches or so for the whole day. You guy's forearms look to have a bit of a bend; compare them to the photos of my dude I attached (he's a bit chubby, but you can see the straight line from elbow to ankle). Luckily, MBD can be halted and the animal live a healthy life if caught and corrected earlt

 

[jackthejellydragon]

he looks yellow body blue bar.
