“It is proposed that this may be related to physiological adaptation to adverse environmental conditions for breeding and that husbandry factors in captivity are primarily responsible for the progression from a physiological to pathological process.“ This makes a lot of sense. Wild Chams have...

There’s several species that live this life. Furcifer antimena I believe is one and there are other examples I thought it was cool that they maintain two non-crossing breeding populations that in effect take turns breeding on even or odd years

I saw some articles that it works in iguanas. Shows how little is known about the differences in endocrine systems in different species of lizards

I would wonder what the morbidity and mortality for the procedure is. I haven’t found any data on this yet and I’m guessing there isn’t much available, but I would guess it’s too high to recommend preventative sterilization These animals aren’t that common, and I would guess most surgeons don’t...

I love your passion

Definitely fine. My Hoehnelii loved them, and similar size

It is never below 65% in Florida for certain and they do great there, and my guess is if you avoid the missles and drones you’d find that where they live in Yemen is probably pretty similar

It may be difficult to find hydration care related peer reviewed studies specifically about chameleons. With so many species of animals much of that research can never get funding to perform the research. There’s not enough “benefit” from doing research on such a small niche of the animal...

Thank you everyone!

Has anyone tried using a chiller of some type on nighttime foggers to drop nighttime temps for montane Chams? If you vaporize 40-50 degree water at night, couldn’t you use that for temp drops at night? And you achieve high nighttime humidity they need as well

That’s pretty awesome. Might need to get me one of those

Cool article. I don’t entirely understand It’s not atrial fibrillation. That just stops normal sinus rhythm (NSR) where their sinoatrial node causes atrial contraction to fill the ventricle in diastole prior to systolic contraction of the ventricle and systemic circulation of blood. So the...

This one is pretty awesome too. Approved 😂

I vote you breed Furcifer antimena Super cool Chams. Easily reproduced wild conditions 😁

That’s the perfect set up I always had my RO collection reservoir in basement with a drain that I ran the overflow to a floor drain for any over flow RO units don’t make water very quickly so massive floods shouldn’t be a huge concern if all the parts are working

Hi James. Float valves are usually pretty easy to install. I haven’t bought one in a really long time so I’m sure the tech is a lot different than I’m used to To avoid a flood I think you need a back up system like an overflow just above the height of your float valve that can drain excess water...

That’s a terrifying thought 😂

Imagine if they did this with all the invasives in Florida Fish, snakes, lizards. It’s good they stopped them
