    FS - Furcifer petteri

    Hello All! We received a shipment from Madagascar and admittedly it's one of our best imports to date. Working with our importer, we've made some great strides to eliminate the bad exporters and only work with quality exporters who listen to our requests. One of those requests was to send...

    Other Reptile Species?

    This one should be interesting... most of these species we actually do work with and we are trying to breed. Very few are here just for acclimation and will be for sale (C.brevicornis and F.petteri for instance). I'm sure I missed a few here or there... :P Uroplatus U.henkeli U.aff.henkeli...

    The first Calumma nasutum has hatched!

    So far we have C.nasutum and C.aff.boettgeri (blue nose species from the far north) but we've only received eggs from the C.nasutum. Originally we were incubating eggs at different temps but judging by how shallow they place their eggs, temperature variations are handled rather well. These...

    The first Calumma nasutum has hatched!

    Thanks Chris! I don't know if I can express how happy I am for us to reach this level with them. We still have about a dozen or so eggs incubating so I'm hoping for some males to keep this project going. Now the focus switches to caring for these tiny little gems! leedragon, Incubation is...

    The first Calumma nasutum has hatched!

    This day truly marks a milestone in our endeavors to establish this species in the hobby. The first of hopefully many has hatched in our workshop this morning and we figured we should share this great news! :) Enjoy! Luis

    Furcifer bifidus

    A few of the female F.petteri came in gravid but the eggs didn't survive the ordeal (laid them everywhere but in the ground etc). Since they are available for sale (unfortunately we cannot keep them all!) I didn't want to stress them by trying to introduce them just yet. My guess is we'll get...

    Furcifer willsii Courting Behavior

    This is the first time we introduced them since they arrived in February. One thing I did think of is that it's becoming winter over in Mada and their "biological clock" may still be in that mode, which would make females not very receptive at the moment. It happens a lot with WC animals from a...

    Furcifer willsii Courting Behavior

    Took a few iPhone videos of our Furcifer willsii male trying his best at convincing the female to accept his advances. Needless to say, we separated them shortly after I took the video. :) Furcifer willsii Courting Behavior - Part 1 Furcifer willsii Courting Behavior - Part 2 Enjoy! Luis

    Furcifer bifidus

    I completely understand, we're all trying to put the pieces together on these newer quota species. Either way, take very good care of those eggs! They're priceless right now. :) Luis

    Furcifer bifidus

    It also wouldn't hurt to have a fecal done on the male, just in case. It's better to be safe than sorry with such expensive animals. ;) Luis

    Furcifer bifidus

    Don't forget we're from different countries with different cultures and languages so inflection can sometimes be misunderstood via reading text alone. I think Jurgen was just getting frustrated at the fact that he's experienced what he's explaining while everyone else is making assumptions based...

    Newbie cage check

    If you don't have substrate, you'll have to find a way to catch any excess water. Substrate isn't terrible if you top it off with a decent layer of oak leaves and can go a long way to soak up any excess water. It will have to be swapped out fairly regularly though, since you shouldn't have...
