I have kept them together until 5 months old without any issues. In a pinch I've kept small groups of the same sex- 3-4 males or 3-4 females together until 7 months old. Usually not a problem but house only equally sized males and keep an eye on them for aggressive behavior-

Here are nice female and male neonates; they are pushing 10 weeks old and growing fast! :)

Beautiful Oustalet's Chameleons, 6-9 weeks old, available for sale. The 3rd photo is of the mother (not for sale) feeding on a horned worm. Asking $99 each, or 3 for $269. At their age I prefer sales in the greater Las Vegas, NV area, although I periodically travel along the I-40 corridor to...

90 is probably a little to warm for a 3-month old. Perhaps you can put him out in the morning before it gets too hot. As adults I keep Veileds and Oustalet's outside into the low-100's (103-104) here in Las Vegas with no ill effects provided they are provided with plenty of shade and are...

What species of chameleon do you plan to keep?

When I lived in Portland I kept my adult Veileds outside from mid-May to early October, rain or shine. As long as overnight temps were mid-40s or higher they stayed out overnight. In March, April and November I would put them out on sunny or above normal temperature days. They love the sun-

I feed the greens to the dubias and crickets and then feed the insects to my chameleons- that's how they get the greens. I have tried to feed veggies to Veileds, but with limited success (although a few years ago I had one that loved cherry tomatoes). I would check Craigslist in your area for...

She was probably WC from either Hawaii or Florida where there are feral populations. The expense (legal import) or risk (smuggled) to bring in a WC from Kenya is not worth it for a $40-60 lizard...

Based on your photos and age of 10+ months, he was probably sexually mature. I echo many of the comments about cage size (larger is better), lighting, the water dish (a definite no no), and care when he was a juvenile. However, I believe misting once an hour is way too much. Combined with a...

Thanks- the dame's are actually Florida WC but have been long term captives. I was in Homestead in March- the Florida Fish Wildlife Commission's removal effort there has been pretty successful, that site has been cleaned out. Dealers are going to have to start relying on captive breeders-

A Desert kingsnake, Gopher snake, 2 corn snakes, yellow rat snake, Rosy Boa, Dumeril's Boa, 2 Collard Lizards, a Leopard Lizard, Desert Spiny Lizard, Chuckwalla, Madagascar Giant Day Gecko, an Argentine Tegu, and 2 Tiger Salamanders.

She needs a vet immediately. The sunken eyes are a sign of serious dehydration, and the skinny appearance and weak grip are indications of malnutrition- A vet will probably rehydrate and give an oxytocin shot to help pass the eggs; if that doesn't work, surgery would be required.

Here is another photo- this one hatched out about 10 days ago; they have all hatched out as some shade of brown or tan; with this green coloration already she must be a female-

deremensis - those are the Usambara 3-horned correct? Are they a montane/live-bearing species? 41- wow, my only experience with Jackson's I had a female that only had about half that, almost half of them were stillborn-

The hatchlings are doing great on hydei fruit flies...I have 6 cultures firing so far...if they are anything like Veileds, they will be on a mixed diet of flies and pinhead crickets in a few weeks, and be off of fruit flies entirely by 8-10 weeks-

Thanks- I incubated them at 74-76 F most of the winter; when it gets hot here in Vegas I set my thermostat at 85 day/80 night, so they haven't been any cooler than 80 since about a week prior to hatching. The clutches were in the same incubator but in separate deli cups, 8-10 eggs per cup...

I have 2 clutches of Ousties, laid on 20 and 21 Aug, that started hatching on 19 May. So far 29 eggs have hatched, 20 more to go! Photo of 4 hatchlings attached-

Shouldn't be a problem- I know Veileds occur naturally in Yemen over 6000 ft in the mountains; Panthers and Oustalet's occur over 5000 ft in Madagascar; I believe the entire natural range for Jackson's in Kenya is over 5000 ft. I have kept Veileds and Oustalet's in Albuquerque (~5800 ft) with no...

What species of Chameleon do you have?

I have 2 clutches of Oustie's in the incubator, but they aren't due to hatch until June or July-
