    Trouble Breeding Panthers

    When did she lay the infertile clutch? I agree with Bob. But I have never heard of females not breeding if they haven't been mated for their first or second clutches.

    What kind of panther is this?

    The one visible chameleon on the vine looks like a female so there is no way to tell what locale they might be looking at her. Additionally they are young and you won't be able to tell even looking at a male. If you can get pictures of the males we can only do so much as give you a...

    Reptile expo

    The carpet looks a few days away from death and the deli cups are not ideal. Many people will preach that it's just expo conditions but the expos I've been to - all the chameleons are always housed in screen cages with plants or glass exo terras.

    What locale and aprox age my new panther chameleon is!!?

    Your nosy mitsio looks pure to me. Unfortunately we can't tell what locale a female might be. The only way you will know she is nosy be is if you breed them and the males show typical nosy be colours.

    The illegal and secretive world of chameleon ranching Nat Geo

    They are indigenous/endemic to Madagascar and Africa. They are new species introduced to an environment. They are therefore alien invasive. What is it that you can't understand about that? Before all of you throw around how people should be happy about this, because you're a chameleon loving...

    What locale and aprox age my new panther chameleon is!!?

    Nosy be, upwards from 8 months old I would say. Scottsquatch is right, true blue nosy be's have been mostly selectively bred. Nosy be occur in nosy be in Madagascar and on reunion island. Nosy mitsio however are only found on nosy mitsio island as far as I know so not much chance of a wildcaught...

    Brookesia superciliaris encosure

    I researched chameleon keeping understanding most species require a 5.0 uvb source (although recently a group of people argued with me that veileds will not grow sufficiently unless under 10.0). I also read that pygmys do better with 2.0 - given that they occupy leaf litter and small shrubs...

    Carpets (lateralis)

    Good day all. I have not frequented the forum in a long time but still breed veiled chameleons quite often down in South Africa. I have been so lucky to finally get my hands on a new species - a Furcifer lateralis lateralis pair. They are wildcaught/ranched and have been dewormed and seem...

    Opinions on deremensis

    Hi. I may have an opportunity to keep a group of deremensis chameleons and I have a question for those with some experience. I have done a fair share of reading and have accessed the Chameleons Online Ezine articles and have a document written up by Luis about their natural husbandry and care...

    Veiled Chameleons and Hibernation/Brumation

    Was anyone successful with this? I want to know how veileds might react to winter temperatures of South Africa johamnesburg. I kept them outdoors for the entire summer time through rain and all. I'm looking to construct large outdoor enclosures with enough space, foliage and structure for the...

    Dwarf Chameleon Enclosure's (Bradypodion size)

    I have not kept thamnobates but I did keep a CB pumilum for a stage. I kept him in a live planted exo-terra enclosure, the usual plants - ficus and schefflera. Their cages don't need to be too large, I think 60cm high is sufficient for a single animal. I will have to see if I still have pictures...

    Injecting oxytocin

    Hi guys. I have a female veiled which I am 100% sure still has 1 or 2 eggs left inside of her from laying her first fertile clutch, it is less that a month since she laid the batch of 37. I am able to get oxytocin but would like to know if anyone can direct me on administering the...

    Panther issue

    Thank you for the re-welcoming Jann, I started keeping some veileds again and recently bought these panthers. I also feel it could be lighting but I have treated them with some ofloxacin, an antibiotic eye drop. These are supposed to be CBB from germany but I have my suspicion that they are wild...

    Panther issue

    (sorry the title should read panther eye issue)Hi guys. This is my first time encountering this problem and I was hoping anyone with experience with this may point me in the right direction for treatment? Any clues might be appropriate for me to mention to my vet in deciding exactly what it is...

    Madagascar new arrivals...rare!

    It was said that these were hand picked specimens. Obviously pointing out that the latter (and probably the majority of the animals selected for the quota) are/were in serious condition. From a conservation/wellbeing point of view - is it worth travelling the poor guys over such a long...

    B. thamnobates? Problem in SA

    I have not seen bradypodion actually for sale in any shops but I have seen them being kept at stores before, both transvaalense and pumilum. Unfortunately there isn't much we can do. I've tried adding my efforts into making a change even getting very far with Nat. Con. but only to have them...
