Oh wow that's so lucky! Very happy for you! :)

1 more day! :D

Just go ahead and take my money now.

2 days to Derp! :eek:

Apollo is a fitting name for a cham with such brilliant colors! where did he come from if you don't mind me asking?

Oh wow small world! Most of my family is in Carlsbad! But I was raised here in Baton Rouge. And when I first thought about looking into it, the initial quick wikipedia reference mentioned cephalopods having some type of chromatophore organs(?) triggered through muscles. It also mentioned...

I've found a few things on cephalopods and chromatophores. Those are interesting as well, but I'm more interested in the mechanism that triggers them in chameleons. Are you from my neck of the woods? :)

Welcome! :) This is the best place to research! Being new to chameleons myself, I can't help you too much with your questions (My first one will be here within a few days). I can tell you though that unless you plan to have that window open all day, you shouldn't rely on UVB from it. The...

I've seen Sandrachameleon's wonderful blog post and recipe for this, I'm wondering what the rest of you guys use?

Who can point me in the direction of some reading on how chromatophores work and other things on chameleon physiology? Any good resources? Undergrad biology student looking for some end-of-the-summer reading!

Technically no, with no place to lay probably not. But she would also get eggbound and die.

Sounds like you did things right then :)

His name is Derp Guevara! But he will also be referred to as Derp for short :) Yay for the Derps!

4 days to Derp!

That hostility seems a little unnecessary for someone who was just trying to help you. How was he insulting you by giving you the correct course of action to help your chameleon? Because he used a single word that may just be natural in his vocabulary? If you take something like that as an...
