I have a female from the January babies that could go to an awesome home. We plan to keep one of the females, but have two. The male has a home waiting for him. We also have 3 newborns that need a few more weeks to become stable enough to go to a new home. Here are some pictures: Their mom...

I have 2 males and 2 females trioceros sternfeldi born in late January. Anyone else interested in trading out captive breds? I would love to have another breeder pair. I have just fell in love with this species!

Nick Barta is just awesome. I have sent him pictures of the size of newborn chameleons (pygmy and sternfeldi) and requested the best diet available beyond crickets for their size. I have always opened the package and just smiled - PERFECT! Last order, he even included a treat for our tortoise...

Congrats! Oh, they are so tiny and cute when they hatch!

I move mine around from day to day. I like to get readings from the top, middle, and bottom of the enclosure and adjust humidity if necessary.

We came home to 6 pair of little eyeballs staring back at us on 1/24. They all seem to be doing great almost a week later. They are developing such adorable little personalities.

So cute!

I remove eggs. Others have great success at just leaving eggs alone to hatch (not that brave). I lightly dust back layers of substrate until I found little tic-tac sized eggs. I go on a rather slow & methodical egg search in the enclosure (I use coconut husk for substrate too) and place the eggs...

Most everything I read said to use Perlite or Vermiculite to incubate Brev eggs. The last 2 clutches were placed completely covered with coconut husk substrate at room temperature. We sprayed the substrate a couple times a week. Just wow! Coconut husk is naturally anti-bacterial and...

I keep the Rieppeleon brevicaudatus species. I typically house one male to two or three females in a large enclosure. They breed very easily, and the eggs can be incubated at a comfortable room temperature in perlite for 2-3 months. With that said, I believe overbreeding can be an issue with...

I am guilty of mass dumping crickets for 4 adult pygmies. They may get 10-15 in a day. I judge the next night feeding by how many crickets are left over. It is typically a two day cycle for my crew.

Congrats! Cute, cute cute.

I have heard others had luck just leaving the eggs in the soil. Personally, I take mine out and incubate in perlite. It's fascinating to watch the eggs expand. It also makes finding the babies a lot easier once hatched. They are so tiny I am afraid I wouldn't be able to spot them in the large cage.

Omg! Omg! Omg! Here is the little one - in my hand tonight.

Thanks everyone! Yes, that's a laser pointer.

That's too cute!

I sparingly place a UVB, non heat emitting light on top of our pygmy enclosure for a 3-4 hours every couple of weeks. It is mainly just to keep the vines alive in the enclosure. I have noticed no basking behaviors. One of the females tends to hide herself close to the ground and totally...

Curiosity got the best of me. I can't wait for this little one to arrive!

I have pygmy chams and use an ExoTerra Monsoon mist system to keep the cage humidity up as well as a water source. I absolutely love it! The spray is a very fine mist, not a blast of water. I have one girl that likes to sit right in front of it and wait to be sprayed. It has a good size...

I line my cricket containers with a strip of packing tape around the top. It makes the surface too slick for the crickets to grasp and climb.
