How old is your chameleon and how much do they weigh...?

[bluegoldfish]

Cham is a Male Ambilobe blue bar panther chameleon and he is 1yr 7 months old approx.
Weighed him 2day at...

263g! is that fat?

He was only 6g when i took him home when he was 3 months old!
Will try n post pix soon but camera isnt working with computer at the mo.

He is about 19 inches long from nose to tip of his tail.

My male veiled 19 months old weighs about the same as Bocajan's......he's right around 200grams. My 8 1/2 old female is 116 grams.

263g is a pretty large panther. Hard to say whether hes fat or just a big animal. Post a picture, id like to see this boy!

263 is pretty massive. Are you sure your scale is working right? He doesn't look overweight in the picture.

Yea i will try n weigh him again soon. He is asleep at the mo. He is also shedding at the moment so getting bigger still!?!

I put a bucket with a branch inside it on a set of electronic scales and then set it to zero, and then let him climb onto the branch and then checked the weight again.

I feed him locusts, occasionally wax worms but not many. I gut load his locusts with kale, and sprinkle them with calcium dust, and everynow and then nutrobal.

I dont want him to be obese, but he seems fine and is always wandering around my room using all his legs and he's tail.
