That is a female jackson, probably a xantholophus.

Correction: That is definitely a female Trioceros jacksonii xantholophus. I would guess just under a year old.

Yup, female xanth for sure! (I own 2), I'd guess around 10 - 12 months as well. They're the only chams in Hawaii so yeah, there you go. Funny, she doesn't seem very stressed, which is cool...they seem pretty laid back, but yeah, they do live in Hawaii lol :D

Lol, this is why I edited. *facepalm.:p


To the OP:
Could you find out where that animal was found exactly?
I mean like what type of foliage(if it was in foliage) how far off the ground, what the weather was like, and where at exactly on the island?

It would be really, really, really, nice if you could:D
Id be super interested in that info!

As would I.

@OP- Like already said, it is a female Trioceros jacksonii xantholophus. Probably like what Solid said, just under a year old.

Here is what my aunt said about where she found her.

"Found upcountry Maui at the pineapple winery. Found one there 3 years ago too. Last one had horns. Actually some little boy found it. On a tree trunk. Kid said it was on lower part of tree. About 2 feet off ground. When I got it she was about 4 feet up. I found one at botanical garden in fern last year. I have not seen them by beach or our condo but I'm always looking. Only speedy geckos around the condo."
