How old is Marley?

[Kgroom]

Hey, when we bought our chameleon we weren't told how old he was... Just wondering if anyone can give me an idea. Thanks!

Welcome to the forums. My GUESS would be around 4 months old. I'm attaching my blog for new keepers to help you keep Marley healthy.

He actually died last night we've done everything by the book, so very upset. Was wondering his age before I went and spoke to the shop
I got him from. He had 3 fits yesterday.. Called the vet out who have him injections of vitamins and calcium but sadly he didn't make it.

Oh no, I'm so sorry!

Sorry to hear about Marley. He looks dehydrated in the photo you posted.

That was the day we got him... We sprayed twice everyday and had running water in the vivarium.

I have attached a more recent picture

Im sorry for your loss.

It sounds like he may have been sick before you got him.

BUt for the record- you dont want a waterfall in their cages.

Chams dont recognize that as a source of water, so they wont drink it.

Thank for the comments guys.

I've seen a few comments about the waterfall but he did actually drink from it on several occasions
