when i first got my chams they attacked me when i put my hand in the cage, now i hand feed them treats every night and they really dont seem to mind me that much any more, the boy wont take his eyes off my hand cause he thinks theres food in it, rarely do i get attacked, but panthers seem to be...
if i do 8 1 minute misting sessions a day am i good or should i bump them to a little longer(still trying to figure the whole thing out, drainage is not a problem)
buy a new one 4.95 at home depot, never mind you don't have home depot do you, but how much more could it be somewhere else? if you can find them cheap get 2, and switch them out periodically
i read about this in a book i bought yesterday, according to the author chameleons are deaf, but have the ability to sense vibrations, mine don't seem to mind the vacuum, or radio, but what i want to know is if the flashing images on the tv would cause them to stress out??
if you need a stud panther my boys is out of control right now, hes only about 5 and a 1/2 months old but he saw me with the female this morning and now all day has been lit up bobbing his head running, literally running, around his enclosure... poor little guy, i feel bad, i almost bought an...
when i got my chams the male had the same thing you are describing, i assume it is from under hydrating, as long as you are giving them proper husbandry now the excess skin should come off in the next shed, mine did, hope this helps
Good looking chameleon, looks healthy but still very small for age, are you sure he is really a he? Looks more like a female to me, which may explain the size issue. Can i get some senior members to either confirm or deny this?
size will be the issue my boy eats several a day, but he is getting quite big. My girl on the other hand is about half his size and has eaten a few but doesn't seem to take to them as much as the boy. He is about 5 months she is about 4.
after reading this i might change my cups, right now i use opaque plastic cups, both my chams took to it very fast, first day i tried, it took my girl about 20 minutes to figure out that shooting the outside of the cup would do her no good, now they both run right to the top and shoot away
So i had just finished putting in my two chams day supply of food in their cups and forgot to latch the enclosure, i stepped out for a few minutes only to come back to my male, now free from his enclosure, on the outside of my females enclosure bobbing his head wildly, the little girl...
thanks! I can really see the resemblance to Amandil, but Bonnie and Clyde actually came from mb reptiles in Oregon, who i will not recommend but thats another story, they are from different parents and are about a month in age apart. This is Clyde's daddy
i just thought i would share some pictures of my favorite two Ambanja's; Bonnie, and her soon(not that soon) to be boyfriend Clyde.
and heres another one of Bonnie, probably thinking about biting me again!!!
