This little pardalis fascinates me and the subject is extremely interesting.
Maykel - You'll have to keep us updated and informed on the babies progress and growth development. You have a little treasure there.
Excellent Job Catherine...
Excellent job with Edwardo Catherine and the baby is adorable! Edwardo looks exquisite and his babies should be stunning. I can't wait to see how they turn out :). Keep us informed!
I have clutches of Nosy Mitsio's and none of them have "horns" or "nubs." He does seem to look like a pardalis from the photos... could be a genetic defect? Or a growth?
Interesting.
In order to ship Delta Dash, you must get an approved and certified account. I have a Delta Dash account and they came to my facility to make sure I was a legitimate business and I had to go through security checks to be approved. The process can take anywhere from 3-6 weeks to become a...
Interesting thread. Obviously we all agree that natural sunlight is always better, however, many are unable to provide this for their chameleons depending on location and weather conditions.
I'd be interested for someone to see if there is a UVB reading with the mirror reflection... very...
Vertex is correct. You should not use lights on chameleons at night as they need regular sleep hours that mimic the day/night like we do. Personally, I don't like the low temperatures for my panther chameleons to get below 65, however, 60-65 at night should be fine. If you find your home...
Reptivite by Zoo-med has direct source of Vitamin A in their multivitamin dusting powder, rather than beta carotene conversion. Try switching to this product and see if you notice an improvement. Also, putting carrots in with your insects is an excellent source of a gut loading addition as it...
I obviously did a terrible job posting this thread with the intent to warn chameleon owners about excessive heat colorations to prevent possible heat strokes and death. As stated before, I had a very sad customer lose his chameleon because of this and I was only trying to prevent this sad...
I have a link on my website that talks specifically about colorations of panther chameleons. If you are interested in learning more about panther colorations, differences between males and females, and differences in locales, you may take a look here...
Cowchick,
I am very sorry to hear of the outcome. You did all you could for the poor girl and it's people like you that make this world a better place. I'm sorry for your loss :(.
Eye problems are typically due to 4 things that come to mind:
1) Lack of Vitamin A. Vitamin A is a source of nutrient that provides healthy eyes to chameleons. Although beta carotene is a known nutrient that converts to vitamin A, I use Reptivite as a multivitamin because it has a direct...
I noticed you have your basking light sitting on top of your reptarium. Does she walk upside down on the top of the cage? Her underside suspiciously looks like burns to me. If so, she needs to see a vet right away for burn ointment and antibiotics.
If you can, remove the basking light from...
I agree with Will that sometimes the quality of a camera or photos taken in angles with the sun may be part of washing out or bleaching of colorations in chameleons. Since that is the case, I'd rather not point any fingers to others here on the forum. I just felt it important for people to know...
Hi All,
I have noticed a few photos posted here on the forum that show white or very light yellow/orange colorations and I have also received some phone calls from customers regarding their panther chameleon's strange colors that they have recently displayed that is out of the norm. Please...
Yeah Nosy - As much as I'd love to surprise your girlfriend with one of the Morpheus babies, I have a huge waiting list for one of his offspring. I wish I could provide all of you one of his babies, but if I don't continue to breed his line, then I won't be able to provide anyone with his...
Hi All,
We have offspring from the Morpheus and Aristoquis bloodlines. They have turned out gorgeous with the Morpheus line looking just like their daddy and the Aristoquis line also looking just like their beautiful father. Unfortunately, like Pam, we had a very low hatch rate which means...
He's awesome :). I also thought God of Dreams (Morpheus) was perfect for my Ankaramy too and it looks they are both deserving of such a name!
I have seen many chameleons that are named the same as some of my breeders. Lancelot is one as well as some others. We think we are being original...
Thank you for the compliment Nosy! He really is a magnificent Ankaramy. Pam's is beautiful too.
Heika - I didn't know you had a chameleon named Morpheus?
I have had over 200 chameleons at once and there does not seem to be any correlation to this theory as I have never had all my chameleons shedding at the same time according to the moon's cycles :). It would be pretty awesome to see 200 chameleons shedding all at once though! However, it would...
