I have to take Todnedo's side on this, no matter what - they are still wild animals.
You don't think that WC chams come into the country with countless parasites as well? in the wild Parasites are a part of the animals life, its not as if they are endangered of going extinct because of the...
If only I got hugs like that......
:D.
Sounds like your female was taking the initiative and pretending the be the male in the relationship.
Hahahah very sassy indeed.
with the blending, its sort of a 50/50 bet. When I did it with a group of crickets - they chowed down on it. The next batch refused to eat and are each other instead.... Now I just chop up fresh greens and carrots with the knife, spoon a tiny bit of honey onto it all, perhaps a splash of orange...

Janet Jacksoni?

LOL I was cracking up pretty hard.......
Nice pictures, quite the pack you got going on there.

Eliza,
I think it mainly has to do that any of the chameleons you mentioned are rarely CB, at least the ones sold in the pet stores. Any panther you buy, is usually CB, in fact its sometimes "harder" - i.e more looking and inquiring involved" to get WC panthers than CB ones.
any CB animal...
Brad - I think it may have to due with the availability of the animals in question. Panthers are everywhere, while F. Lateralis is still in the process of getting situated as CB, even WC shipments are not that easy to find. I think the same applies to F. Oustaleti, does it not?
Secondly -...
I agree with Julirs here.
Many of the dogs bred and selected in the past - that gave way to the variety of breeds in the present - were bred with purpose.
Most terriers were bred to hunt rats, and as breeders discovered and bred for variety within the species - eventually the lines...
Aloe Vera usually just penetrates the pores, so i doubt it would do much - I don't really think chameleons have pores? lol, let alone on their sides and back.
I say its a burn personally, my female panther just got diagnosed with the same thing, which sucks and makes me feel like a lame...
Congrats JustJumpit on the new guy ( wait this guy is new right????, sorry... i havent been on the forums much lately )
That cage is just fine as a temporary cage - a week or two. But if he is a big boy get him a 48 incher to boot and hell be happy as heck.
In S.A and Jordan - veileds can...
A 5-6 month old panther male would do perfectly in a 18x18x36 screen cage. A new one can be purchased from LLL reptile, a site sponsor. A used one - I would suggest craigslist or the classifieds on this forum.
If your chameleon will be female, a 18x18x36 inch cage will be suitable for her...
My real interest in this thread is the proving/disproving of the authors statement. Thank you for this post.
So your male is 3rd generation... Im curious to what that means - perhaps he is an exception? perhaps sterility is at a higher risk with second generation male crosses than it is with...
Thanks :)
Dr. Greek is about an hour and a half away from my house. But I will take her there tomorrow if no decent local sources show up. I have two vets to call in the morning.

does anyone know anything...
I have already looked on the vet listed stickied on this forum - I have called most and they do not treat exotics or have little experience in them, most have said they have never seen chameleons.
Can anyone please a recommend a vet in the southern california area? Close or in the area of...
After some setbacks with household financials - it has come to a point where the family collection of pets, needs to be cut back. You may have noticed a listed for the Goffin Cockatoo - she is still for sale :)...
Sandra, is your cross male first or second generation cross? The author states he believes the males only become sterile second generation and beyond. Lets see, maybe you can disprove it :)
Either way...
@ Julirs.... thank god someone chimed in who understands the plight. :p
Migration is an instinct.... not some "Oh I think ill take a trip" gut feeling the animal can just randomly have. Its genetically integrated for survival.
The pure WC bloodlines are mainly pure, however there is some mixing in the wild. People have purchased babies from WC nosy be females and...
