Brown Edges

tassadar898 Dec 09, 2004 05:47 PM

My 3 month old Cham is just finished shedding, cause there are flakes of skin on its head. But on the edges of his/her casque, feet, eyes, and alongside his back (I guess his spine) are all brownish. Could this mean he is read to shed again or worse?

BTW
-I really like chameleons and are devote atlast an hour a day for it. Its my parents that dislike reptiles and so I have to put the burden of a chameleon on me entirely. But I think the burden is well worth it.

He is probably just showing some color. I dont think there is anything to worry about. Most young chams have brown outlines on various places.
Not the most scientific of answers but just my 2 cents!
