Hey everyone,
I've decided to sell my adult female sambava holdback as I've decided not to breed her and I'd like to sell her while she's still in her prime.
She's approximately 2yrs of age, never been bred, and in immaculate physical condition. She came from a clutch from my...
Hey guys,
I've been downsizing my stock, but have been interested in a Kinyongia matschiei (Giant Fischer's Chameleon) for a long while now and am curious if anyone has, or expecting, any available. Will pay or trade an Adult Female Sambava F. pardalis if interested.
Please contact me by...
Hey all,
I've got some young adult female sambava panthers that I've been seriously dragging my feet on selling. I've got a baby on the way and I need to make room around the house. They're a little over 1.5 years of age, never mated, and fed a steady diet of dubia roaches/crickets gutloaded...
I have for sale two female Sambava F. pardalis; Hatched on 20 February 2008. I’ve held onto these guys for an extended period of time to gain more experience with hatchling development, but I’ve learned all I need and I’m ready to send them off to good homes. The images attached below were all...
Hey all,
I wanted to recommend a book:
THE LIZARD KING
The True Crimes and Passions of the World’s Greatest Reptile Smugglers
by Bryan Christy
I actually heard about this book in PLAYBOY a couple weeks ago and decided to make it my next read. I'm a long time hobbyist in both...
Hey everyone,
My Sambava panther babies are about 4mo old now, and I've been noticing that one of my females is exceptionally red compared to the others. I was wondering if this is pretty common and if the red coloration carries into adulthood?
Here's a couple pics, but I'll try to get...
I was tending to my B. dubia roach colony today and my wife snapped this:
This is a picture of my son, Evan (2.5yrs), holding a large female B. dubia roach. I like this photo because I'd never hold one without gloves, but he loves it. I have a very mild insect phobia where I'm totally...
Hey everyone,
About 2 months back I had a Sambava clutch hatch out. I had 12 out of 27 eggs make it to term and only 6 hatch out and sadly I've lost 2. However, the four I have are going strong and getting big quickly. I believe I have a 1.3 clutch. Here's the suspected male I'm planning...
Hey Everyone,
My first hatchling emerged after a 7 month & 18 day incubation! I was doing my daily check on noticed an egg had some how moved a few inches. I got really concerned that maybe the drawer they were incubating in had been jolted and it could have disturbed my clutch. So I open...
Hey everyone,
I've been considering trying to work with Ch. melleri for a while now, but haven't had the necessary indoor room to work with. I just recently expanded my living space and now have plenty of room for a melleri to live indoors full time as an adult if necessary. I was planning...
I have an Adult Female Sambava Panther that's almost 2 years old. About 7 months ago she mated and produced a healthy clutch of eggs, but no follow up clutch from retained sperm. Just this week she's started to ignore her feedings of roaches and crickets, but she's very actively drinking...
Hey guys,
Just wanted to share a pic of my very first clutch of eggs. They're from my pair of Sambava Panthers, 23 eggs, all looking pretty good as far as I can tell. She buried them pretty deep, I was losing hope for a second that I might not find them. Right now they're incubating...
Hey everyone,
I just started my very own B. dubia roach colony today (thanks to Dave Weldon) and I had a question about feeding them your typical highly calcium fortified gutload feeds. I was at the IRBA in Pomona today and picked up a large jar of "mystery" dry cricket feed. I consider it a...
Hey guys,
I wanted to share a couple pics of my 1.1.0 Sambava Panther Chameleons since my male is starting to show a change in coloration. This time it's not my imagination, but you can be the judge. Here's the pics:
Anastasia; our 16.5 month-old female:
Speedy; our 8.5 month-old...
