So many awesome quad pictures in this thread! Here is my female gracilior from Janet's import that came in gravid. She's just over a year old now and I'm looking forward to finding an unrelated male for her soon.
Cool enclosure build, I would add more horizontal perching options in the top 1/3 of cage though. Really like the overall look you have going luckily Cham will call that palace home!
Handfeeding is the first step and it just takes patience, and more patience... with some even more patience. With panthers I've found they tend to mellow out a bit around the 1 yr mark or so. When they get motivate to find a mate and want to walk around a lot you can leave the door open and let...
Too many... and not enough ;)
~ 40 chameleons (30 are baby panthers :) that will be leaving soon enough)
2.5 ball pythons
1 unsexed green tree python
2 dogs
Countless anoles and green tree frogs that live around my house I consider part of the family lol
Tormund my young male gracilior has developed an infection in his lower lip over the last week so he got to go to the vet for the first time yesterday. No foreign materials were found but he did have a small amount of pus that was cleaned out. Docs guess was a scratch from a feeder that got...
Petco has the iguanarium for sale as well 60% off. I just purchased a few to use for outside enclosures. They are 48 x 36 x 18 nice and big plus come with wheels so I can move them around on the deck when needed as the sunlight patterns change with the seasons. I plan on moving a couple adult...
Good looking guy. I have a pair from last years import, both of mine and everyone else's that I talked with about them came in with heavy loads of coccidia so be careful with your quarantine. They love lots of water and favorite foods for mine seem to be various roaches and supers. The male I...
I agree the color is a little off, may be the lighting but all the fertile eggs Ive hatched have been white. You'll know if they go bad they mold quickly.
Generator is only way to go for multi day outages and or large collections. We had to evacuate for hurricane Matthew and lost power for 4 days, 5500watt generac ran my entire reptile room; all the lighting/ mistkings for 9 adult chameleon enclosures, ~ 50 babies, the incubator and a ten tub...
I bought the pure one of amazon and it's very nice but not ideal bc you can't use a timer with it due to the digital switch, it must be manually turned on and off.
I haven't had any issues I keep my dogs out the room with most of my chameleons but we have a male panther that is in a public area and the dogs (including a sighthound) don't seem to notice him much and he doesn't show any stress reactions to them. That said they are not at eye level and his...
Roaches are my preferred feeder, got a few varieties and they are amazingly simple to breed and keep happy without the stink of crickets. I do keep crickets but just small ones for my babies.
Thanks so much @Nicholasdeaan @Rorschach @SCharton74! @Rorschach he's always ready for a battle I think it's more stressful for me moving him around lol
