Dexter is growing!

My man Dexter is growing so much. He will be 5 months on the 16:)
He has grown a lot and developed quite the colors.
The little guy had a little fall yesterday in his cage and dent his casque a wee bit but i sure hope it will get better as he grows and so does his casque. Other then that he is the sweetest little thing and doesn't mind his casque at all.
He will for sure be a free ranger in about 4 more months as he doesn't like staying in a cage lol

Here are some pictures taken today.

Awwww! :D His colours are coming in nicely! He's going to be a handsome boy! Looks like he just bruised his casque - that should fade after a few days. Thanks for sharing some new pics!
 
Did he actually dent his casque? If it actually dented I would be worried about bone/calcium problems. If it's just a bruise then I'm sure he's fine. you try to get him to bite you to see how his jaw bones are. It's a good way to make sure they are getting enough calcium. :)

He has some nice blues coming in!

Not sure many people would be willing to do that?

Yes im sure it was because of his fall because it was not like that before. Thanks for the concern
 
Stefan Dexter looks great!! Very handsome :)

Mobat has been out all morning watching mine and my roommates daughters play with clay lol.

It doesn't hurt when small chameleons bite your arm/hand. It definitely won't hurt if there is a calcium problem. I wouldn't let my adult male veiled bite me, but I would/do let my others and friend's animals bite me. It also works to see how flexible the casque is. It should be pretty stiff, if it's not then there's a problem.


It's easier than just guessing, and it makes me feel better about it.

And where are the pics? :p:D

Thanks everyone. I love him,

He got to free range on this huge plant we have in the house and i put him on it while i was making a sandwich and then of course i forgot about him. Then 3 hours later my mom sees him and starts yelling because he climbed on the top so much it bent the plant and now it looks like nothing lol. PLUS he ate the top of her plant. Silly and happy chameleon !:p:D
 
Stefan, Dexter looks great. I need to post some new pics for ya from the girls. They are both getting ready to shed. They are the prettiest little girls.
