Welp, project is officially on hold. The male was doing…. seemingly well until about the time the female died. He went down hill quickly and died last Friday…. I got a CB female shipped in that I’ve had since that same Friday. She’s only 3 grams so lots of growing to do. I’ll be raising her up...

Hey all. Bad news.. the female started going down hill quickly a couple weeks ago. She started roaming the bottom of the cage, and dug in the soil a bit, but never did finish digging or lay. She just couldn’t pick up weight either. I am not 100% sure what happened, but I ended up losing her...

Hello everyone. Close to 2 weeks in at this point, which I can’t even believe.. Female - doing quite well. She is feeding quite a bit but I have discovered an issue with her tongue. She is only able to shoot her tongue maybe an inch. This results in most times, she climbs into the feeder cup to...

Awesome stuff Steve, excited to watch the progress of this small batch breeding project.

Good post and video as usual, Bill. It’s exciting to see such progress, and community driven advancement in our thought process. It will be interesting to see the results of people putting is into action the next few years. Thanks for sharing. Carson Fillin

Day 2 Grabbed some small crickets, not quite pinhead but probably 2 week or so. My local reptile shop carries good feeders and I purchase there. Nice to not have to deal with shipping! The female ate 8-9 crickets while I was gone for a few hours. This was positive to see. Still drinking and...

Ok I’m getting behind on updates.. Day one, 2/18 Female came in in great shape. Maybe a little skinny, but good other than that. She immediately started to drink when she got into the enclosure, looking desperate for water. She didn’t appear dehydrated, but she was definitely in need. I have a...

Man it would be awesome to have you jump onboard with a pair or two! I hope we can get some KCK traction like we did before. They are simply incredible. Thank you about the enclosure. Theirs a few things I’d do differently in the future, but overall it’s working great. It resides in my office...

Thank you! Yes I agree. I’ll be feeding a lot and keeping track of weights.

Working on a video to showcase them better.. but here is a sneak peek at the female, and a link to my Instagram to show the unpacking. Interesting behaviors so far, I’ll post tomorrow my first three days of observance. Link won’t work?? Anyone know what the deal? Fillini_chameleon is the...

This can only mean one thing! 🙃

Few things here. The parameters that I’m starting with are as follows. Lights on at 6:30 AM. This will turn the jungledawn and UVB on.. for now. I plan to get some smart dimmers soon and adjust this. Lights turn off at 6:30 PM When lights come on, it looks like this picture. 85-90% humidity...

Well ran into a snag. Communication randomly had stopped about that treated WC male… I went a head and changed directions and ordered a farmed / WC male and female pair. They are getting me pictures so I can pick the animals. Weather is cold this week, so we are planning to ship Monday for...

Hey all As some of you are aware, I’m a long term big Kinyongia fan. Right now, the only available Kinyongia in the states is Boehmei. Small species that historically has not had a lot done with it here in the states. Hopefully this can help others enjoy the species and work with them a little...

Food processor works great for that, I do that most of the time. Easy to make a huge batch and not worry about it. Don’t worry about finding pre gut loaded bugs.. if you feed them off the day you get them but they don’t have food in them, it’s not that big of a deal. 1 feeding isn’t going to...

I think we often confuse gut load with general healthy feeding. IMO, we should be feeding our bugs a lot of good foods everyday. Gut load through to me is, literally that. Loading their gut full of something in particular that we’re wanting to make sure makes it into the Chameleon. If you’re...

Thank you. Underground just got another shipment in (I’ve talked to them a few times over the phone) and American reptile distributor does as well. I’m likely purchasing from Underground either next week, or the week after… I’ve never had a WC animal so I’ve been trying to find a unicorn CB...

Nick Unz (not sure his name here) breeds them as well. I’d go check with him or the others Jan suggested. I’d imagine, 12-18 months would be minimum. I believe I heard Frank talk about it on one of Bills podcasts but I can’t recall for sure now…

That was my question too.. what are the ambient temps in the cage at night? Can you get it below 68?

True Ambanjas are so much nicer than the Blurples anyway! Really nice animals you’ve got. You and Ipardalis are the only ones I know breeding true ambanjas. They just recently introduced that project to the public to be doing along side their YBBB and RBBB projects. Glad to see theirs a few...
