She remains nameless, but I'm working on it. She's about 3 months old, and feisty little booger.
Thanks for looking...

Thanks to all of you for the compliments. She's fun...and precious...I still have to work on a name for her, though. 
Dennis, to answer your question, males are pretty, but they have to compete with the unreal look of gravid females most of the time. Honestly, I have not ever seen a picture of an adult Carpet female that was not gravid...LOL! So, I'm not sure what she'll end up looking like...hopefully, we'll have a chance to breed them and we'll get to see her gravid colors.
Here's a picture of my male...light color...he gets darker coloration too when he's basking and such.

Great looking cham. Where did you get her from? Congratulations, I know you've been looking for a female carpet for a while!

Thank you...yes, I looked for a long time...I'm a pretty obsessive person, too, when it comes to something I'm into.
I got her from the Chameleon Company here in Florida. They occasionally have some ads on Kingsnake for Verru's and Ousties...but they didn't have an ad for her. Instead, they had a few males for sale awhile back, so I e-mailed them to see if they had any females...turns out that they had a couple of CB babies, but I had to wait awhile for her to grow up some.
Thanks again...
