wow thats a tiny boy if he is really that old. my female is that size and she's 1year old.
He says it's definitely 20 months old. They got it from a reptile centre at 6 weeks of age and his siblings were also small. Apparently a member of staff at the centre had one of his brothers and that one is even smaller.
Is that something that should be of concern?

It is hard to tell the size of the cham without some reference. The picture showing the enclosure is a little deceiving since in his other thread stated that this is a 30x30x75 cage and not the 24x24x48 we are use to seeing.
but he definitely looks ok to me

From the picture I noticed the cage did NOT have a UVB lamp....... how does this guy not have MBD after 20 months?! Ask them if they provide any sort of UVB or natural daylight for this guy.
BTW he looks good.... but im concerned with the UVB
BTW he looks good.... but im concerned with the UVB
It's a 4ft tube hanging down the left side of the cage, I mistook it for a window at first glance

oh your right.. I see it now... I would find out what brand of lamp and when it was last replaced.... Also... it should be on top next to the heat lamp. Put a basking perch below the lamp so he can get heat and UV at the same time... and if your getting the whole setup I would add some plants... that cage is very bare.
