Hi Bob-the original post says campani "Seeing the first one, I thought they were a different locale campani (Jeweled Chameleon) since the gold coloring is so bright. I checked http://www.chameleondatabase.com/speciesgallery/ (Thank you @kinyonga) and found out that like most species in...

There is no evidence published that campani have any type of color locale. I bred more than anyone in the US, and just like most species, once you breed a number of them you see they have a great variety of color and variation even within a single clutch. This is true of many many species.

Adorable Furcifer minor males available. The males of this species make awesome pets and can be very laid back. $350 plus shipping. Thank you, Kevin

For me it seemed to be lack of vitamin A in the mother's diets

Yep-2 years is the average. I actually like that they have short lifespans because I can make room for offspring from subsequent generations and keep them going instead of having to dedicate lots of cage space to old non-breeding animals.

This is what they do when they are hatching. If it didn't pip by now it probably died during the hatching process.

Yes, you definitely should diapause. I had one egg take over a year and a half to hatch because I did not do so for my first eggs. Diapause goes as follows: 45 days at 70F, 45 days at 50F, then remainder at 68-74F. They generally hatch at about 8 months. Thank you, Kevin

I've been breeding Furcifer lateralis (carpets) for 15 years and have 9th generation animals now. If you incubate the eggs at a constant 68-74F you will get hatchlings between 9-12 months on average, usually hatching scattered. So, it is not unusual not to see veins yet at 5 months. I use a 30g...

Love old school cham pics

Yep-looks like a male Jann. Of course it's always much easier to tell in person.

Oh, you're in Canada. Sorry Mawty.

Ha-males are easy. I have an excess if you're looking.

I always seem to get male heavy clutches with quads too

They look pretty perfect Bob!

Rose, If you get one just treat it like you would a panther or carpet (smaller scaled caging of course). Adults can do quite well, but just have the short lifespan to deal with :)

Sometimes your climate works for or against you

Ralph & Rose, It is a terrible species to keep because of babies. I've bred and hatched more than anyone in the United States along with Nick Henn. I have hatched out multiple generations of animals. The babies are extremely delicate with a very low survival rate until they reach 3 months old...

Getting lateralis to lay is actually very simple and is very rare for them to drop if you take the proper steps (as captive-breds). You must be stubborn and put them in a laying big OUTSIDE of the enclosure and not expect them to begin digging immediately like pardalis or calyptratus are known...

Hi Gene, I was wondering where ya' went. Great news about the ten babies! Kevin

I second that
