YL parson's progression

[jamest0o0]

Just posting some pictures of how my yellow lip Male is coming along. Got him from Craig in January. I can't remember exactly, but was about ~70g. He's about 16 months now at 165g. I tried to post the pictures in order from oldest to most recent, but they seem to have uploaded mixed up.

The most recent picture are of him in the ficus tree in his outdoor enclosure(~7.5ftx7.5ftx3.5ft). The outdoor enclosure is very unfinished, turning that into a full time enclosure soon, but don't judge it too much for now, I know it looks bad lol. I just put him out there on days I'm not working on it. Having a newborn pushed back some projects.

Wow. They look absolutely prehistoric. Like an actual dinosaur! I love these chams. So, so handsome!

 

[Tucklander]

He is awesome and so Bless to have you as his owner. You seem to be considerably into not only Chams but science in general and your semi-self sustaining enclosures are amazing...he’s a really lucky and a really nice looking HUGE guy

Nice pictures. The DIY enclosure looks good. You need some more branches in there though.

I think @jamest0o0 said it was an unfinished enclosure. Still, I think it is off to an awesome start. Anycham lucky enough to live in that enclosure is quite the Karma Chameleon

He is on the path. Starting to make a with a huge DIY enclosure and a couple of trees for your Calumma parsonii parsonii enclosure. Just add some branches.

Hey i appreciate it everyone. Yup, the enclosure is most definitely not finished. I still need to put the door on and finish adding the outside layer of window screen(to keep bugs out). Don't worry, tons of large branches, shelves of plants, hanging vines, etc will be added. I just put him in there during the day when I can't watch him outside.

Wow, he's magnificent! So cool to see his color shift from tannish-green to a beautiful saturated turquoise color! Wonder if he'll maintain that coloration into adulthood? If so, he'll be one of the most stunning YLs I've ever seen. Looks like that boy's gonna have some impressive rostral protuberances as well. You're doing a fantastic job with him!

Lovely bastard :O hope he gets really big :O

Thank you! I love his colors right now I've been wondering too if they'll stay that way. He either shows a deep sky blue or that turqoiuse/teal color with bright yellow stripes through him. In person he looks like he glows. I think it looks better than my Panthers even

Oh me too! He seems to grow/eat better outside so I try to get him out as much as possible.

He’s looking magnificent James, great to see, amazing colour, great pictures, does he have a name yet?

 

[jamest0o0]

@Twitchet shhhh we dont bring up he-who-shall-not-have-a-name-yet

 

[Twitchet]

Uh oh! O.k I hear you,
Maybe soon then!
Well HE is still a delight to see.

 

[jamest0o0]
