Cobalt showing STRANGE coloration!!!

chamcham505 Nov 09, 2005 11:25 AM

Hey everyone,

I got Cobalt fired up infront of the mirror today, and instead of turning his usual blue with sapphire blue bars, he bursted into all these reds, blues, greens, and even yellow! He's never even come close to showing any of these colors, but when I put him next to the window, where natural sunlight was coming through, he turned back to his blues. Why does he do this?? Change back in fourth from artifical to natural sunlight. I hope that he keeps on firing up blue though, he almost looks like an Ambilobe in these pics. Enjoy!

Hi there, I have an Nosey Be, Ambanja mix cham, his name is Lou, He is 75%Ambanja and 25% Nosey be 7 months old. He is blue with red eye turlets and some red spots most of the time, when he sleeps he is white with almost NO colors at all, but when he fires up, watch out, he turns greens, yellows, reds, and looks like a completly different cham. He is so neat and mellow, but I had never seen him turn red or yellow before until one day he was free roaming and saw himself in the mirror, when I walked in the room, I had to stop for a second and think, because he looked like Yosamite, my sambava, but I could have swore I left Lou in there! Then he saw me and chilled out turning back to his normal blue. He is the coolest little thing and I'm hoping he gets more colorful the older he gets! You pics of Colbalt reminded me of this! He is sooo awesome!!
