I'm not sure why the pics aren't posting. Could it be because they are on dropbox? I made them public. Here are direct links https://www.dropbox.com/s/jq7cpfp81jfh6a5/2012-08-17%2008.58.44.jpg https://www.dropbox.com/sc/j7sci4mpnrtbi0f/OqwCSoAb5k

Here's a picture of him.

I have a 3 yr old Ambilobe Panther chameleon for sale. He's awsome, but with 5 kids now, I simply don't have time keep up with him as needed. He needs a home where he can get the attention he needs. He's been healthy all his life, never sick (that I can remember). Included: 36" (ish) UV...

He seems to be able to see ok for the most part. He can focus both eyes and snatch a cricket with his tongue. I also forgot to mention that I feed him wild stink bugs that are found around the house. He loves them.

I've fed a LOT of stink bugs to my panther over since summer. He loves them and will eat them off of my finger.

My boy does that sometimes. I just figured he was stretching.

I'd like to know what kinds of frogs are in there as well. they may have different environmental needs.

looks like the beginning of a shed to me too. Pretty soon, he may look like he's exploding. :D

Our favorite Hornworm, the Manduca Sexta, has been used to find a novel form of locomotion that is likely to be used in new 'soft robots'. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/07/23/caterpillar_gut_pumpo/ :p

their horns represent a large portion of their body when they're small like that. In fact, its usually easier to see them because of the horn.

This site has more info on Hornworms than you ever wanted to know. From what I understand, pretty much any hornworm will eat bell pepper, unripe tomato, or hornworm/silkworkm chow. Hornworms

My cham does have inflated head pads. He's looking good. his front legs look skinny to me, but he has no problems getting around. He hasn't been as aggresive at eating as used to be. He often leaves crickets uneaten.

My 2 and 4 yr old like to hold the hornworms and pet them. They're harmless. As for the frass, keep the cups lid side down, but propped up a bit one side (about 1/4"). Then just take the lid off over the trash can and dump the frass.
