Odd one out

Odd one out pictures

I received a shipment of wild caught chameleons. Now I am positive of all but this one. I have never seen a female throw these colors before, not in pictures or in real life. She can go solid white to solid red and every shade in between, even blue and green. The males are all ready to go at her but she doesn't want them just yet. She doesn't look anything like the other group of females that I got. I know what locale she is, at least in the shipment that is what she came as. Without saying the locale I would like to know what everyone's input as to what locale you think she may be.

Sambava, maybe?

I suck at these games. XD

That's a pretty big rostral process for a female. You 100% about the sex because I'm sure not.

Have fun with him.

You know I thought about that too...... There is no hemepene bump at the tail. The males were bobbing and trying to get at her so if it is a male then a few of my other males must be gay lol

 

[FOREVER ENDEAVOR]

looks male to me..

 

[Chameleon Nation]

Hemepene or no hemepene

What do you think male or female??????

 

[Vibrant Chameleons]

That's a male, 100% ... No wonder it doesn't wanna breed to a male...

You must be new to Chameleons? Best of luck with the boy...

It's a man,baby!

 

[THECHAMMAN]

appears to be a man. just to be sure, introduce him/her to a female and see what happens. but im 100% sure its a man.

The mix up

Alright, after getting off of the phone with my importer and telling him all of the feedback coming off of here, I will be taking him/her back for an exchange. The guy that imports these thought it was a female too. There is no clear hemepene like the rest of the males nor the same colors. So saying that I am glad for all of the input.

I rarely laugh out loud here at work, thanks Chuck!



It's just not as funny trying to explain my laughing to my coworkers, "I'm on this chameleon forum and we all thought this cham was a female but it was actually a male and..."

looks like the males i got from an importer down here in miami who also didnt know what he was selling.he was trying to sell them to me as ambilobe but i knew other wise.
quick question..did you buy him from an importer down south?if yes, how many did you get in total? can i have pics of any "true" females you got in that bunch?
sorry for the interrogation its just that im after some specific females that were brought in by this brainless importer and it seems we might have dealt with the same nutcase!

It looks male but I do not see any stubs on his feet

What locale were you told heshe is?

 

[kinyonga]

I love the colors! Have you tried showing it to a female?

This is a Panther, Males do not have spurs on their feet.. You are thinking of Veields and a couple other species I believe.

 

[CleanLineChameleons]

Maroantsetra...male...I think I have that wc's brother...LOL

Looks great! He will be a solid orange one when he gets older.

[kinyonga]

Maroantsetra? I thought they were mostly red and green?

 

[Vibrant Chameleons]

Maroantsetra? I thought they were mostly red and green?

Tamatave are mostly red I believe. I've seen a bunch of variations of the Maroantsetra. The one I had was Orange and a little green. When sleeping, it went a Redish Orange.
