Monty Jackson - First year in photos

[Miss Lily]

On 23rd October I will have had my gorgeous little Monty for a whole year! I got him at 7 weeks and have taken a photo of him on my finger every month to show his progress and growth. What a wonderful year it has been watching him grow from a tiny brown scrap into a gorgeous, friendly green boy with spendid horns! I love this little man so very much!

I don't have to say I think Monty is wonderful, everyone knows I love him. When he hit his green in March he turned into a big boy. Going month to month the sudden change really stands out. He just keeps getting better and better.

How come Monty isn't changing his color to match your nails?

 

[pssh]

Its nice to see the growth he's gone through! I dont think I've ever seen pictures of a jackson from baby to adult! He's so handsome! He's got a beautiful blue color to him! The jackson's I had only had that color on his tail or when he was asleep.

WOW, what a beauty. Thanks for sharing. He is gorgeous.

Thanks! He's always that lovely blue/green and yellow when I get him out. He's a very happy boy!

Awww, thanks Harry! I love my little dinosaur to bits!

he's gorgeous I am stealing this idea!

Lol! It wasn't my idea - I was inspired by jdog1027's thread of his young Jackson, but I made sure to take a new photo around the same date every month. I am so glad I did!

Monty is my favorite Jackson of all time! You've done a wonderful job with him. His baby pictures are the cutest!

Thank you for posting this thread.

 

[ChameleonMom]

Monty is handsome beyond words! I love the growing up pictures...much like seeing your kids as teenagers and not quite believing they were ever babies, its easy to forget our chams were once that tiny too!! Love him...!!

Ohh lol well I will steal his idea! I will take my pics on the 13th of every month thats his birthday 7-13-12 hehe just like mine but years later We were meant to be!!

I love your little dino, definitely my favorite jacksons of all time

 

[absolutbill]

I just love Monty and seeing him change through the months is incredible! You really make me want to consider a Jacksons for a future cham

 

[ChamomilleCame]

This was great. Monty grew so fast! He looks so squishy Haha had to let that out

 

[Miss Lily]

Thank yu so much everyone! Jacksons are such sweet natured inquisitive chameleons! Here is another picture that I made online putting all 12 of the photos together!

0h i wonder what the shrine in your room looks like! jk I like how his top horn droops down at the tip.

 

[Spencejah]

Aw man, I can't believe I'm getting sad over this but I won't see my baby chameleons grow
They're a month old now, but I leave in a month and a week and then I'll be back for around mid December and by then they'll be all grown up and green by then

This is such a wonderful thread documenting the growth of one of my favorite chameleon forums celebrities

Thanks for the idea Tiff, I am going to do the same thing with little Sammy Jackson. I can only hope that Sammy turns out to look like handsome Monty

Aww, that's sad - you need to ask whoever is caring for them while you are gone to take loads of photos for you!

Thanks! It has been an amazing journey with Monty - I honestly didn't think it was possible to love a chameleon as much as I love Monty! I look forward to seeing your Sammy updates - I still love that name you gave him!
