I have some pygmys and male male changes his colours quite alot. He tends to have a few more stripes than yours but i don't think this is anything to worry about. Im pretty new to this though, so maybe check with someone else. But yes remove the water bowl.
So i have had my pygmy chameleons for 2 days now, and they have settled in well. All of them eat like pigs and they all have ha a good drink.
They seem in good health with no signs of dehydration or anything else.
I have noticed on one of the females she has a large bottom jaw. Its bottom...
Thankyou for the feedback :) Its really useful :D
So tomorrow im going to try and get a low plant preferably real, rearrange the plants a little bit, and get some leaf litter. Can you use leaves from outside, if so how do you tend to sterilise?
Thankyou again :)
Il let you know how i get on.
Im a pretty new keeper to them, but if you were looking for a general list for equipment from what Ive read it would be something like:
fired clay balls (drainage layer)
weed-mesh (drainage layer)
Coco fibre (substrate)
Perahps some moss for on some of the substrate (optional though, i use...
Hi guys, I am getting a pair of pygmys on friday or sat morning so I have just set up the tank to get it going before they arrive.
I was wondering if anyone could help with set up ideas or any improvements/changes I could make.
this is the substrate layer to the tank. I have washed zoo med...
I have to admit i love the lord of the rings films myself, but i most enjoyed the new hobbit film. Perhaps they could be named after dwarves from there!
Thanks for the great idea guys!
From a place called jungle bugs in the north west of the UK. They seem good breeders but we a re driving up there to take a look when we pick them up.
Any ideas guys?
So we are thinking of purchasing two pygmy chameleons and wondered if anyone had any name ideas?
It would be a male and femal pair and would like something unique so wondered if anyone had any ideas or examples :)
Let me know!
Thanks guys! :D
Hi there I was wondering what anyones experiences were with buying and keeping these little fellows. I have heard a range of stories of them dying soon after purchase or other horrible things, so thought I would see what stories came from you guys!
Thanks
Hi I am looking to purchase chameleons from the same site and wondered if you had purchased from there, and if so how the chameleons were doing?
Thanks
yeh I have been trying to keep him hydrated through regular misting and feeding him through a syringe, he is very awkward to get to drink but once he does he laps it up. I have been holding him over the sink on a towel and misting him for about 5 - 10 mins at a time including when he's in his viv.
I apologize for the picture he is not very fond of the flash on the camera, let alone me dragging him out of his cage at this hour hence, his colour. If your wondering what the colours are around his mouth there the blended food Ive been feeding him, seeing as he wont go for solid food yet! Hope...
