I'm tempted to invest in a high-end shortwave receiver (have had a cheaper Radio Shack model for years), bu know very little about them. Any shortwave enthusiasts out there?

Introducing my new little girly, Sugar Magnolia! (Check out the Grateful Dead song if you have no idea where that name comes from.) After 9 years of chameleon keeping, I'm thinking of taking the plunge into panther breeding. Not for quite some time, yet, though, as Sugar Magnolia is still a...

Here it is, January in the midwest, and I had the chameleon out for an hour today in 60 degree weather. I've always lived in the midwest (MN, MI and now NE), and am used to having one or two warm days in late December or January, but we've had highs in the 40s, 50s and 60s for weeks now, with no...

Is the 2012 calendar out yet and I've missed the announcement? - I keep checking the bookstore and not seeing it. Or am I just being impatient?

I am keeping an eye out for an older (i.e. not baby) Sambava female to possibly introduce to my 16 month old male. Would prefer an adult, or at least one 5-6 months old (would not consider breeding before she's at least a year).

Find the thing in your environment most colored like your lovely self, and sit yourself down in it - instant cammo!

So, after my last two "serious bummer" threads, it's high time I posted something upbeat... This morning I received deBary, a 15 month old Sambava holdback from Kilgour's Chameleons. My photo is grainy, because I didn't want to shoot off a flash at him, but give you some idea; a much better...

I feel just awful doing this twice in one week. Some of you know that my female veiled, Beatrix, escaped while outside on Labor Day weekend. She was in a small tree, I was sitting by her, I went around to look when she disappeared from view, she apparently went one way while I was looking the...

Blue boy Professor McGinty (male Ambanja panther) died on Tuesday, at 22-23 months old. He had had a variety of health issues, and had gone back and forth in his willingness to take live prey (when he wouldn't, he was relatively willing to accept a liquid diet). Gross necropsy revealed a greatly...

This morning, I discovered approximately a hundred million minuscule arthropods on and in Egil the Gargoyle Gecko's cage. They were moving, so we couldn't determine whether they had six or eight legs when we looked under the hand lens; they looked slightly more elongate and softer-bodied than I...

Well, I just don't know what to do with Mr. McGinty. Or, rather, I do know, and am doing it, but wish his problems were a little less vague and a little more responsive... In the time I've had him (since 4/2010), he has never been an overwhelmingly enthusiastic eater. He was diagnosed with...

Last summer I moved from Lansing to Lincoln. Lansing has a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful pet store. You could go there just to look at the animals, and it was as good as a museum or a zoo. Each department had their own personnel (so reptiles were sold by reptile people, not people who...

He looks so sweet and innocent, doesn't he? His latest deal is "I will eat, but only if I am out of doors." Coming on the heels of about a month of "I will willingly ingest any liquid you choose to give me, but will not take solid foods," (and, yes, he's seen the vet and has a clean bill of...

Chameleon Info: Your Chameleon - Male panther, 1.3 years old. Has been in my care since he was 4 months old (April 2010). Handling - I handle him to take him outside when the weather permits (not much since November), and as needed for feeding/treatment. Feeding - Last fall he mostly gave up...

March 27-28, 2010 were the hatch dates for Forum user jannb's Luie and Camille clutch. For those who have chams from this clutch, let's see what the kids look like a year on! Here's Big Bad Bea: It would be a better pic if I could take her outside, but at 31 degrees, that's not happening today.

...well, maybe not quite on the open range... Little Miss Beatrix (veiled) has this room to herself. Accoutrements include real Ficus, Schefflera and Pothos, fake Ficus (which came with the house when we moved in last August) and two bendy vines. A laying bin is present, but below the field of...

From BBC news: Snake gives 'virgin birth' to extraordinary babies. Kind of cool.

...need I say more?;)

Well, it's really warm and pleasant here, so I've been shuffling lizards around so everybody gets their turn outside. McGinty is still smallish, but has attained the shape and is working up to the colors of an Ambanja. He's always showing some blue these days. And then there's Bea...

- though Jackson's chameleons don't translate quite perfectly to human body shape and proportions. Available online at the Mad Martian Monster Store (but of course).
