    Rhamph. acuminatus gender question.

    Hm, mine females have had short tail, hint leg longer (stretched) like it. You have there long tails. Unless you have another form (this is known by brevicaudatus) I will say 4 males. Btw, on 1,2,4 are hemipenises clearly visible.

    Bradypodion thamnobates

    hm, if they are outside they should be in screen terrariums (I have them in Flexarium or glass just on front side). Inside I have them in glass terrariums, well ventilated, and it is necessary to pay good attention that it dries relatively quickly (I have in room itself 60% rel. humidity what...

    Fiberglas

    Ok, after loosing some fingers (not personaly but my chameleons) or stainless steel mesh that looked safe I am considering another materials (Today I was repairing cage so they can not hit mesh anymore). What about fiberglass? I have heard here and there that cricket will chew through but is...

    Emigrating With A Chameleon

    Where can i buy a Parsons Chameleon?

    Really big cage ... you do not need (in principe they do not need more like comfortable cage for pardalis male). Raining system ... you do not need (if you can spend 10 minutes daily for them. But if you can not spend 10 minutes daily than they will not live long). Btw they want drink (by not...

    Where can i buy a Parsons Chameleon?

    You need differ between Europe and European union. European union (EU) works in this from law POV like super country. Chameleon is in Russia (out of EU) and he offers delivery to Poland (inside EU) because simple nobody will purchase it in Moscow. Do not forget that even legal animal in...

    Everyone's favorite game! How many babies?!?

    I will not step in guessing game but I breed thamnobates (right now I have 19 babies tomorrow will be 2 months old) and I can tell following: Gravid female, especially in cold months, can easily look 2-3 months that she must explode in next seconds. Waiting is every time very long. My...

    Where can i buy a Parsons Chameleon?

    Excuse me but from North Virginia it is to far see tiny parsonii babies in Europe :D Trust me they are here. Truth is that there is still "waiting line" and every breeder has friends those will gladly help him with these. (this is just half ironically. If you have 30 babies housed individually...

    Where can i buy a Parsons Chameleon?

    This is not correct. There are more "established" breeders in Europe (although Andreas was first one whom I know that hatched more than 1 clutch) those bred them more times during last years (I personally know 4 but believe there are more in as minimum 3 European countries). I do not want use...

    do females have shorter lives if you breed them?

    Nope. Chameleon females will lay a unfertilized eggs if you breed them or not. No difference. If you will not make correct conditions to lay eggs than eggbound die immediately. If you do not let them copulate they will lay eggs later but they will. I believe by proper breeding strategy (do not...

    When it raines chameleons are closing eyes - this is normal. So may be your fogger is forcing them to do it.

    2 Elliot's died

    How big is temperature difference between night and day? By species like this one you need it otherwise they will be weak (how much thats question but 3-4 deg Celsius can be too little). If they do not have enough difference they do not sleep well. Montane species are sensitive to it. Higher...

    How is the last Bradypodion shipment doing?

    If it is too warm 90F and over my thamnobates often hide bellow stones on bottom (i have them so my screen cages will not fly by ocassion out)- especially gravid females. Simple make them wet shelter and they will be fine. However in my region is never over 98F, last years were such temperatures...

    Spring babies

    I usually prepare older melanogaster cultures where the flies are smaller. Except this I have in breeding room "fungus gnat", wild population living in beetle and cocroach substrate and eating dead insect. Here are females larger than hydei but males mini. They will be attracted inside and this...

    Spring babies

    I can take some picture later but my terrariums are not decorative. It is standard Flexarium, 2 ficus plants, some twigs - nothing special. At present time all are in garage because this is only unheated room in my house. Today was first "spring day" here, even outside about 8°C and highest...

    Spring babies

    I keep SA Bradypodions in pairs/trios whole time (just I combine them together when female is big, one year old or so, it is not good let them copulate in very young age), with low humidity now - 30-40%. They are inside - will go out/in immediately when temperature will stay above 15°C during...

    parsonii looking healthy

    I am very curious, how do you know sex. I agree it is possible guess by even young parsonii but how you can not be so sure that you write it in table "openly published"?
