Ok so we had another baby hatch today. Were up to four so far. We have another 19 to go. We have pin head crickets and fruit flys. My question is do we dust with vitamins like our older chameleons or is their anything special we need to do to help these little guys along the way? We are so...

Hi all,
I am the proud papa of my first BB Ambilobe Panther Hatchling!!! :D
The eggs have been incubating for about 7.5 months...so they came a little earlier than I expected. My first one arrived on Saturday...pretty tuckered out. It came out with its umbilical sac still attached. The...
Hello,
We are distraught. Our girl BB Ambilobe is not doing well right now. She is always perky and an active hunter. Right now she is very week and her tongue is hanging out a bit. We are looking into a reputable vet now.
A little background worth noting. We bred her with my male on the...
Hello,
I understand this is no substitute for a visit to the vet. But your opinions matter, and I'd like to hear (read) them.
Here is my issue first....then I'll backfill. My female, whose been a little lethargic the last few days, and to me looks a little stressed, just passed an egg...
Hello,
Been a while since I've posted anything. I've been enjoying my male and female BB Ambilobes. She is pretty friendly. He likes to keep to himself. I'm very happy with his colors as he continues to mature. I think she reached "maturity" as she became an extraordinary solid brilliant...
I just have to say, prehensile tails are pretty darn cool. My ambilobe boy, who is pretty active in his cage, used it in a completely unexpected manner. I saw him actually drop from a branch, and catch himself on a lower one with his tail!!! Crazy. I'm sure it was an accident, but the fact...
First off, I thi nk the way my chameleons shed is a hoot. It takes just a few hours and BAM! all of the dried flaky skin is off.
So, my question, is shedding how they get new colors? Is it a sort of prerequisit to change their pigment, or are they completely unrelated and shedding is simply...
Holy smokes...what a morning I had today. Well, last night I moved my male Ambilobe from his juvenile set-up to his new permanent home that I built.
Today was the first feeding...and boy was it memorable. Considering that his new cage is about 10 times bigger than his starter cage, I was...
Hello,
I've had my male bb ambilobe cham for a couple weeks now. After waiting for well over a week, FLChams finally called me back and confirmed that he was shipped at 6+ months old, not the advertised 4 months. I was a little disappointed that they couldn't provide an estimated hatch...
Hello,
Can someone help me understand the decimalization...if that's a word...that is placed after a chameleon. I.E. Furcifer Pardalis 2.3 I think it has something to do with what generation the animal is...though I'm not sure.
Thanks,
Jamie
Hello All,
I came up with an idea for my new cage build. I'm sure it's been done before..but I hadn't read about it. Figured I'd share.
My last serious hobby before I recently moved was salt water reefs. There is a lot of work that goes into a nice display tank. Though I will not be...
Well, I saw pretty much a give away add on CL for a Chameleon and Set-up. Suspecting that things were amiss I called and asked a few questions. It was clear that the Cham had not been cared for properly...I couldn't turn my back, and as of last night I adopted a female veiled.
Chameleon...
I realized, once my new arrival (Baby Blue Bar) was in his cage that it needed to be rearranged a little to better suit him and his size. When I slowly approached and opened his cage, he was very skiddish. When I tried to rearrange a few branches, he decided to abandon ship. He climbed out...
Hello All,
I just got my first panther chameleon today from FL Chams. He is the son of Hunter, a Blue Barred Ambilobe. I was shocked when he got here. The site had him listed as being 4 months old...which I figured would be about 4-5 inches in total length (including the tail)...but this...
Hello All,
My name is Jamie. This is my first post. I've been learning about panther chameleons for some time now, made the approprpriate preparations, and recently jumped in with both feet the other day. I am now the proud parent of two Ambilobes, a male offspring of Hunter from FLChams...
