Don't know if I've posted pics of Toby on here yet, but here he is, looking a bit shabby as he's shedding right now.

Gorgeous looking fellah, looking very healthy and well cared for.

Thanks Rick. He is lovely, in spite of having a bent casque.

When we got him at 6 months old from the pet shop, unknown to us, he had a burn on his casque. When he shed, a big scab came off, it started weeping and we took him to the vet. The vet gave him antibiotics, and a couple of days later his casque bent over.

It has been like that ever since, but it doesn't hold him back any.

I know this occasionally happens to chams with MBD, but he has always had UV and supplements.

Couple of pics of him in the garden during the summer showing his casque.

He's lovely - looks a real character. BTW love the ropes in the viv great idea - should call him Tarzan Laughing

Thanks! He loves those ropes! They seem to be really good for rubbing shedding skin on. Since moving into his new viv (again built by the multi-talented Colin!) he has been a lot greener and happier looking. Laughing
