I think I posted in the wrong place so trying again.
I’m just writing for a bit of advice, I’m Uk based and bought a Panther Chameleon from a reputable reptile shop. They insisted that it was male and charged a high price for it. but I’m now having some serious doubts. I noticed on a forum that you iD’d someone else’s and was wondering if you could look at mine.
Some background. Purchased mid January and was said to be born in September possibly - but all a bit vague, recently he/she was first not very active and basking a lot , and over the last couple days very active and investing the bottom of enclosure. There is maybe 5/6 inches of soil at the bottom so wondering if maybe looking to lay eggs?
There’s definitely some salmon pinks in there but also greens and turquoise so I’m really not sure. I can’t see much of a bulge on the tail.
Some photos are from before a recent shedding where the chameleon was much greener. So this is why it’s a little confusing.
Also I’ve attached a photo of the amount of soil - so if they are female is this enough for them to lay in? I don’t want them to get egg bound as obviously we’ve grown very attached!
