I have some true blue Nosy Be's for sale from a clutch that hatched between April 2nd and April 19th (they didn't all hatch on the same day, they hatched sporadically over a two week period)... which makes them all roughly 3 months old. Most are eating 1/4" crickets, a few are still eating 1/8"...
When I leave town, I usually have a family member come and stay. All of my cages are automatically regulated with lighting timers and misting systems, so all there really is to do while we're gone is toss crickets/superworms in. I label each cage with the chameleon's name and how many...
Hard to really know for sure... crosses provide almost limitless possibilities, so it's tough to rule out that it might be a cross...
I would say Ambanja is the most likely locale otherwise.
I have a bunch of baby Nosy Be's at the moment.
I decided to try out a couple of producing fruit fly cultures from one of our site sponsors, Josh's Frogs.
Does anyone have any advice on how to provide proper supplementation when using a fruit fly culture? Do you just dust the fruit flies...
Here is a pic of Little Paul Scholes, my male from the shipment (brother to the others that have been posted), rummaging for worms at the bottom of his enclosure...
There are days when he looks very Mitsio and days when he looks very Ambilobe. He doesn't fire up blue, but he can go...
I have a few pics in two albums on my profile (one called "Mitsios" and one called "Pete the Nosy Mitsio").
The only one I don't have pics posted of yet is the one I received via the shipment in question. I'm pretty lazy about taking pics of my chams, but I'll try to post a few of my male from...
Wow, I go out of town on business for a few days and sh*t blows up! lol.
Mitsios are my focus area right now, so this topic interests me quite a bit.
I stand by what I wrote in a previous thread that heavy blue barring is a bad sign if you have a Mitsio. I have seen quite a few WC Mitsios...
I have two albums on my profile with Mitsio pics, one called "Pete the Nosy Mitsio" and the other just called "Mitsios" ... I'm definitely working on breeding them, looking for clutches to hatch late this year.
1) Nosy Mitsio
2) Ambilobe (especially a high red w/ blue bars)
3) Nosy Be
My favorite chameleon I've ever owned was a high-red Ambilobe named "The Ultimate Donnie"
I've seen some Falys that are pretty awesome too...
Good point... I probably should have specified further... I have seen lateral lines turn bluish on just about every morph of panther...
Blue barring, similar to an Ambilobe is what I was referring to.
Blue barring on a Mitsio is not a good sign in my opinion...
but, that being said, I can...
In my opinion, if your Mitsio has any blue, it's probably a cross.
I love Mitsios and I have 4 males and 3 females (pics are on my profile in two albums - one called Pete and one called Mitsios - for anyone who wants to take a look and judge)... Mitsios do sometimes have red "U" bars and...
