My First Chameleon! Finally!

[CFree3344]

Well guys.. I finally did it. I went to the reptile show today and got my first chameleon. He is an Ambilobe! I got it from the lady at Chameleon Corral. He is 4 months old. I just brought him home. He has already eaten about 3 Crickets. He has been great so far with handling even though he needs to adjust a little when trying to get him out of the cage. Here are the pictures. Tell me what you guys think! I haven't thought of a name yet so he is just known as Chameleon right now..

I go by personality for naming...depending on if they are feisty or gentle

Yay he let me hand feed him 3 more Crickets. Hes up to 6 now.. . I have thought of his name. Helix my Ambilobe Panther

Congrats on the new cham, he looks great! Have you seen him drinking yet? That can sometimes be a challenge at first.

Thanks for the tip. Just saw him take his first sip of water off a leaf!

He looks good, he has got a good cage, I would say he is off to a great start. Congradulations!
