    Replace those O-Rings (a lesson learned)

    You do not need to have the bulkhead below the water line. You can go through the top of your bucket. The pump is easily capable of sucking the water up out of the bucket as long as it is primed ( has water in the pump already) that way you will avoid a leak.

    Replace those O-Rings (a lesson learned)

    Is your supply to the pump below the waterline and fed though that bulkhead?

    Cloned (propagated) schefflera arboricola

    They are definitely great plants for chameleons. I have about 100 of these in my enclosures. I planted one in my yard and it grew 10’ during the summer.

    New Wilbanks homeostatic incubators

    The test will be reliably. If you are cooling and the ambient temps are high, can the incubator hold the internal set temperature. Dvm makes heating and cooling incubators from converted wine coolers and they have proved unreliable from what I have heard. I’ve been using heating and cooling...

    Parsons incubation

    Search these forums for the user I suggested and you will find the incubation parameters you need. They’ve been posted on here for years. It’s pretty much what all the successful people have used. I started there and made changes as I went along. My hatch rate for viable eggs is pretty much 100%...

    Parsons incubation

    No worries. I’ve been hatching parsons for 8 years. Sixteen months is what to shoot for imo. There have been clutches hatched at 14 months and many hatched from 16 months on. I had an egg go 26 months once before hatching but I think incubation times longer than 16 months are due to not having...

    The Lorax 2023

    The Lorax! I rousted him out of his winter mode for a quick photo shoot. This chameleon (Calumma parsonii cristifer) is one of my all time favorites out of all the chameleons I’ve had. I picked him out of a clutch as a tiny baby and its been awesome to see him grow and change. He’s 4 year...

    Parsons incubation

    I helped write that article. Bion was learning at that time and I have assisted them. Unfortunately their Parson’s project is no more from what I was told.

    What is your name and are you in the US?

    Parsons incubation

    That’s way too long and a poor hatch rate. If you do a search on this forum a member (Garrett) posted his incubation schedule and temperatures. I would suggest using that. Eggs should hatch at around 16 months if done right.

    How long was your incubation and what percent of eggs hatched?

    A few baby pictures.

    It’s supposed to be a Yellow Giant Parsons. I say "supposed to ” because there’s no telling what they will end up looking like. The sire of that clutch is my more green bodied YG named Mr Anderson. The Dam is a female that was imported and sold as a YG. Unfortunately exporters and importers can...

    A few baby pictures.

    I’m knee deep in babies over here at Primo Chameleons! I currently have Yellow Giant and Orange Eye Parson’s babies along with Calumma Globifer and Furcifer Bifidus. Here a few pictures.

    The Parson chameleon. Care and needs simplified.

    As long as you have the appropriate cage for the size parson’s you are getting and have the right lights, misting system, branching, plants and drainage then go for it. I’ve had lots of customers that bought their first parson’s from me and did fantastic with them. Not everyone understands...

    Parson's chameleons...eggs...juveniles, etc.

    Bion was selling their YG’s for about $500-$700. I bought a pair and acquired another pair from someone in the states. I still have 3 of those four and they are still alive at a little over 5 years old. I’m hoping that the female I have is gravid and will lay in the next month or so. Perhaps the...

    Chameleon Tour Madagascar

    Dream trip is the one right before this one where we will be looking for Parsons 😉 This trip would be cool also. I really liked Amber Mountain.

    Yellow giant

    I don’t know how big she’ll get but I don’t have any females over 400g. I would definitely try to get her to brumate this winter if for no other reason than to give her a break. It’s hard to get them to fully brumate indoors though but any slow down would be beneficial imo.
