Cato the Gracilior

[jpowell86]

I decided that I am going to create a progression thread like I am doing for my C. j. xantholophus, Doji, with my gracilior, Cato! So here are some pictures to start off with. He is currently weighing in at 19 grams.

Dear Lord he is amazing!!!!!

I can't get enough of this little guy. Between your photos and jajeanpierre's, I'm quickly becoming a gracilior fan.

Thank you!

I know, I was really wanting to just get into T. q. quadricornis. But when I saw the gracilior, I knew a change was in order! Lol.

You can still get a quad!

Cato's is looking very much like the male I kept with all those yellows coming out on his cheeks. Have you noticed any deep pink in the nails? Mine are starting to show it, but not all the time and not every nail. It starts as an ever so small a splash of color in the nail. Take a photo of his nails against white and blow it up--you might see a tiny splash of dark pink where the quick ends an d the dead part of the nail starts.

Not yet...but I intently check everyday!

Lol, it's going to have to be a little bit. I just took in a Nosy Be 3 days ago, so I am pushing my occupancy limit until the Melleri get moved to their new setup.

Plus, the only quads I can find around my area are WC and I would prefer CB.

Didn't you see the pictures of Runty's brothers and sisters?

So, I just got back from Maui and was missing my chams like crazy. Especially Cato. He has grown from 19 grams to 27 grams since my original post and he is looking fantastic. Just wanted to give an update on him!

He looks really good. I like Glacilior a lot.

He's absolutely amazing on every level. I'm so jealous of these little guys, I might just have to take a road trip to get one

He looks incredible. I can't wait to get mine from jajeanpierre when he is old enough!

Thanks!! I was enamored with him as soon as I first saw pictures too. He is a great addition to my chameleon family!

Cato just shed and his yellows and blues around the neck are really starting to come in nicely!! All those large individual scales throughout his body look drawn. I love this guy!

 

[kiwilulu]

Nice looking guy!
He looks like the Incredible Hulk with those ragged pants.

That's hilarious. I didn't understand what you were meaning until I took a second look at the picture. Great comparison!!!

 

[maryanne27]

He is just stunning! You're right, those scales look like they are individually placed on him. I love the color development.
