Say hello to Leo!

Here is him currently 10 days away from 5 months

Him at 4 months

And here is his set up, let me know if something seems off but temps are good and I have a mist system and a dripper and hes been eating drinking and going to the bathroom fine so he seems great. He just ate two meal worms and a gutloaded cricket from my hand today so I'm excited

Nice. The second photo almost had me. It looked like he had no front legs lol. You should get a bigger cage soon? I switched Charlie to a 4 foot tall at 4-5months

Yeah I was thinking about moving him. I think I'm going to move him at about 6-7 months, since I just got him I want him to settle in for a while

Oh just got him. Ok thats good idea but in the mean time maybe you should plan the bigger cage and possibly get started? I did much planning and moved him so he would never have to be moved again. The sooner moved the no problem he will have. I dont think they like being moved all the time..they like getting use to one home.

oh yeah, I've been reading tons about building his new enclosure and it is in the making. I can't wait until he gets his full coloration

Glad to know but remember to post a thread about the finished cage and pictures. Thats just to let us see what he is living in and if its ok but I'm sure it will be great cause your enclosure now is perfect!

Good luck

This is my cage now. It looks dull there but its not when lights are on and its zipped up. https://www.chameleonforums.com/new-cage-done-36436
plus since this picture the plant has filled more and it looks more comfortable. I should really do a repost on that and bigger Charlie

Also just check out my other thread on the size from 3 months to 4months. I should do it again cause he is way bigger now! https://www.chameleonforums.com/growing-everyday-36171

Its a 100gallon size: 16.5"x 30"x 48" tall.
Its not hard to find if he is at the top cause now he is bigger and if I see movement I know where he is. I found it cheap off of craigslist for 40 dollars? originally 70... This is about the min. size for an adult..you can go much bigger. (I updated post above, if u didnt see)

I'm getting off but I can always reply tomorrow. and I will possibly make a new thread on his age/size and cage. Keep an eye out for it lol
