The egg of this chameleon was laid at 20.04.2012, and opened by me today 10.04.2013 after it had started to sweat and shrink as normal, but no opening of the egg witch is quite clear why.
A total of 37 eggs in te clutch, all 36 others have hatched within the last week like normal.
If you look...
I took a video of one of my male pygme chameleons today. Seeing that there are not that many videos of madagascar pygmes, and even fewer of the species Brookesia stumpffi, I thought I would add mine.

I have experienced 4 double eggs in my time keeping and breeding chameleons.
I am sorry to say that your double egg looks infertile, due to the yellow coloration in the middel, wich in my cases always has ended with a rotten egg after a month or two.
I do have one double egg wich has keept its...
My male Nosy Valiha, F1 and 1 year in the end of may.
I keep and have kept alot of different pardalis, but the yellow in Nosy Valihas is just something special. The colors really dont show up on my old camera, but I thought Id make a post as there are way to few pictures online of this type.
The gestation period is very often consistent in one specific female, even though there are some variation. The interresting point would be to have track of the days after deposit, but prior to the gestation period.
If one has keept track of the gestation period in prior clutches with mating...
The adult lenght and weight of female F.pardalis is highly fluctuating, so my standard are based on my own keeping and breeding the species for several years. The standard I have found to work well is 80+ grams in weight, and 130mm i SVL.
In my own keeping, non of the females are fully grown...
Now thats the kind of information I was hoping to produce from this thread.
Was it a female Furcifer pardalis? Did you keep track of the intervalls between each deposit, how many days in between, and how was the shedding in between?
This could be helpful in understanding the theory behind...
I mate all my females at first receptive periode as long as they match the wanted weight and size for a breeding female.
It is no problem to skip the first receptive periode if the female is not up to standards, sometimes she will produce infertile, but in 7/10 cases she will not produce any...
The more I collect breeding data, the more i find these creatures facinating.
I have one female F.pardalis who was mated at 23.12.11 and laid her eggs, a beautiful clutch of 31 eggs at the 14.01.2012 after 22 days of gestation. A bit on the fast side of the range, but she was in top condition...
