I bought this guy from petco about a month ago. I think he’s doing pretty good so far just got done with his first shed. Can you guys give me some insight on how old he could be and about how big he will be as an adult?
Thank you!
Thank you!

Yes! is there something I fill out?Oh my goodness he is adorable! Jackson’s are sensitive to husbandry being off. Are you open to doing a husbandry review to ensure you have everything right for him?
He’s cool! Maybe our harry (our three year old son insisted his name be harry) is 6-7 months old? There is so little info and videos out there about Jackson’sThis is my xanth at 9 months old. Maybe that will help give you a general idea.
thank you, I will look at chameleon academy!I’ll happy go over all this tomorrow.
For now an excellent resource for Jacksons care is the Chameleon Academy website. They have a section on Jacksons. There is also a chameleon academy podcast where I learned all my care from too.
I didn't realize Jacksonii Jacksonii were so small!I’m late to the party and short on time but you do have a male jacksonii jacksonii. I would guess close to a year in age give or take a few months. He is probably close to fully grown. He isn’t a xantholphus so won’t be as big as the other Jackson’s pictured. He should be more like this male (see picture)View attachment 358946
Great thank you for the help!Now that you can attach branches, you'll want to add a lot (as I mentioned before) and get a lot of plants for coverage. Again you want a 'curtain' of coverage in the middle/bottom of the enclosure, the top section you want open so he can get proper UVB and heat. I've attached pics of my enclosure for reference. One of his top branches runs 7-8 inches directly below his UVB light. Thats super important.
Let us know if you have any questions!!
You are very welcome!Great thank you for the help!
