Not sure if anyone cares, but I just wanted to post a little update on the kids because I haven't been on here in forever, I have been insanely busy, but now I'll get on more often to answer medical questions again :)
So, of my 9 sternfeldi babies, they are growing like weeds, they are so...
I am getting her from LLL and they sent a picture because I really need her to be a female, so can anyone tell me that she is 100% female so I don't end up with another male? Thanks :)
This is one of the Senegals that failed to acclimate. For educational purposes, I am posting photos of healed/healing fractures on the ribs. You can see areas along the different ribs where ossification has occurred.
This is very heartbreaking to see what these poor creatures have been...
Can anyone help me identify sex of Senegals? I have already read this thread...
https://www.chameleonforums.com/sexing-senegals-19818/
but the Senegals I'm acclimating are different ages, so size comparison won't help, and I don't see any hemipenal bulges, but I have a hard time believing...
I can't figure out what I am doing wrong! I find about 3-5 dead every day! I have them in a large bin, have a heating pad under half of the container that gets between 85-95, and I feed them fresh fruit and vegetables. I clean up areas where moisture from the fruit causes dampness. So what...
Sternfeldi, senegalis, and deremensis...
and the other one was just something I found online and thought it was cute.
I just brought the sternfeldi outside for the morning so he just woke up. He looks so sleepy!
The following are reptiles that I have that I need to get rid of. I will be willing to trade them for chameleons. (I started a new thread because the previous one was becoming long and I figured this would be easier to read).
All prices are without shipping.
The reptiles and snakes I have...
I am horrible at sexing these guys, and I couldn't find any information, so can anyone tell me if this is a female or a young male? I ordered a pair from LLL and I just want to make sure this isn't a young male. Thanks!
I don't care what people say, chams do recognize their owners. I have a juvenile Flapneck with one good eye, so I give him extra special care, I put ointment in his bad eye, I hand feed him, etc, and he has learned to accept it and does really, really well when it is time for his treatment and...
So I was very ecstatic to receive an Ambanja from Todnedo this morning, he is absolutely stunning by the way, and then I also received 12 Senegals that I am acclimating and either going to try to breed, or sell them after acclimation. I am determined to get this right because my Senegal clutch...
I am moving do to some tragic and unfortunate and unforeseen life circumstances and therefore only focusing on chameleons because it is too hard to have so many different micro climates where I will be moving and I am going to have a cold room for my montanes and a hot room for my Senegals...
I just wanted to remind everyone that just because a fecal is clear, that does not mean the animal is not carrying the parasite. It just means that it is not shedding the parasite eggs at the time of the fecal. That is why I always suggest at least 3 fecals to be done spaced a week or two...
I always have special needs chams that need new homes, I currently have an elderly Graceful chameleon and a one-eyed Flapneck. They both are wonderful and have great personalities, they just need a home that will help the old graceful to eat, I just put hornworms and other insects in his mouth...
I just recently lost mine, you can read about it in this thread: https://www.chameleonforums.com/tragic-love-story-coincidence-43561/ It is a sad but very sweet story :)
Anyway, I love male Ousties and would love to acquire another. It has been a couple of days and, of course I miss him very...
I have an elderly Oustalets chameleon who has had to be treated accordingly for quite some time now. He has started to go downhill within the past couple of weeks, and due to his age, I have been giving him Reptaid as opposed to other medications that would just irreparably damage his kidneys...
My Oustalets just released 3 extremely small, prematurely developed "eggs". They were just the yolk, no shell, and were bound together by their membrane and hanging in her tree. She then went back to her normal, non-gravid coloration. This was not due to lack of calcium or lack of sites for...
I would love for people to describe ways in which their chameleons sleep, and if they have pictures, that would be even better!
I went to my Senegal hatchlings' cage, and I haven't had any deaths in several days, but there was one that was curled up on the floor of the cage like a dog. He...
My chams sleeping as the sun was going down so I could get some shots without the flash (though taken from my blackberry so they aren't the greatest). The first is the Kinyongia (from Seeco) and I have a pic of him with flash and the next without, his sleeping colors are amazing! The next is...
I would like to hear different peoples' experiences about mortality rate and time of occurance while raising hatchlings and neonates for different species. How many hatchlings or neonates die after hatching or birth with the different species you have bred? When they have died, have the...
I just received some hornworms from GLH, but they forgot the food, and they said they won't ship it out until next week now, and the containers don't have much food that have the live worms in, not enough to last until next week anyway, and the eggs I ordered have hatched and I can't wait until...
