I own a few Xanth's...the guys some times have tinges of blue dots here and there whenever they're trying to impress my female xanth. they're still juvie's, ~1 year old so not sure if they will grow out of it or what. i don't do it to often, but i love taking them all out to see the boys flare up and show off, that's when they look the most impressive :D
 
i thought all female jacksons had that brick coloration up till sexual maturity... guess im trippin, thats what the both of mine have been. then theyve turned green
 
My Xanth also had a bit of blue blush here and there, especially around the head so his head was more teal. But to shell out $200-250 for a Jackson's, it better really be as blue as a Nosy be! It just sounds like he was trying to scam you, especially if they won't provide photos. That's a big red flag right there. I don't think him saying anything about glass enclosures is a bad sign of his husbandry, hundreds of thousands of people use glass very successfully, but just the fact that he's trying to sell something without photos is very sketchy.

I'm glad you're walking away from this sale!
mine is as blue as nosy be

From looking at the pictures from @ActionJackson, I think that blue coloring is normal if they are raised in natural sunlight, mine look very similar

This guy is quite blue with a nice yellow stripe when he's not running from the camera.
 
I know this is an old thread but in my 10 years of cham ownership I have never heard of a blue Jackson. I certainly would have done if it was a real thing as I adore Jackson's and a blue one would be wonderful.

I hear what you’re saying but if that tail ain’t blue then nothing is. My guy doesn’t even have a yellow stripe. Just a fat blue tail
