OK thanks. So it would be best to try and purchase a female from two blue bar parents, since I have a blue bar male? That is if i want to try and hatch out more blue bars.
Thanks for the replies everyone. I understand the whole genetics concept. Its like hair color...there are dominant and recessive genes, so just because both parents are blonde doesn't mean all the kids will be. I guess i am confused about selecting a female. The females i see for sale...
I agree, i do not want to mix two morphs. I feel like i am getting mixed messages...chameleon kingdom says that red and blue bar ambilobes are the same locale and can produce either color, while stevereecy says that he does not agree with mixing two morphs, which would imply that red and blue...
So, if it is random to get red bar, blue bar, or both in the offspring, how do breeders choose what female to breed the sire with to get the results they are hoping for?
Hey everyone. Lately i have been considering if i ever want to breed my blue bar ambilobe male. It got me thinking about the main two types of ambilobes, red and blue barred. Are these considered two different locales which should not be interbred? Has anyone done this? What do the...
Hey everyone. I I recently just got a new enclosure for my panther chameleon. It is an aluminum screen cage with pvc board bottom. I am curious how to keep all the excess water from misting from getting all over the floor. Right now i don't have to worry about it because i keep him outside...
thanks for the replies. it was nowhere near that big, and it wasn't out for more than ten seconds. is this still considered a prolapse or is it normal? should i take him to a vet?
Hello everyone, i have a problem (i assume) with my 6 month old panther. About ten minutes ago i went to feed him his crickets (about 5 3/4 inchers). For the first time since i have had him, he ran up to the screen door and started trying to escape, passing back and forth. It looked like he...
I have had my 3 month old panther chameleon for about a week now and he is doing well. He eats a good variety of food such as crickets, silkworms, and a few small wild grasshoppers. I dust them every other day with rep-cal and once a week with herptivite. He has a basking bulb and 2 reptiglo...
I just purchased a 3 month old panther chameleon a couple days ago. When i mist him, sometimes one of his eyes will swell up and get bigger, and it sort of "pulses". It really freaks me out when it happens and i was just curious what it could be? A little while after misting it goes away and...
Thanks alot for the help! I tried to let some crickets go in the cage but he didnt eat them. They just crawled into the plants where he couldn't get to them after a while, which was why i tried to put them in a small cup.
If i put another heat bulb in combined with the one i already have...
Hey everyone. I am new to chameleons, but not reptiles, and I just got a young panther chameleon (almost 3 months) from a local breeder. He is in a 36h by 24w by 24d screen cage with 2 reptiglo bulbs (5.0 and 2.0) and a 75 watt basking lamp. I have a large umbrella plant in the cage along...
