    ChamEO...data and photos.....

    It seems like the nights are really warm in the area at Madagascar summer even under the forest canopy. I suppose temperatures would drop a few degrees during the night, but still I may need to add my B. superciliaris extra heating at night for summer (if this was not an exceptionally hot...

    Babies tail

    Looks like a burn. Could the tail have touched to the light source or the ceramic/metal lamp? If so, then it needs to be placed it further away before other babies burn themselves too. Hopefully the vet can remove it safely and it won't get infected afterwards. Maybe it is better to not remove...

    Is she pregnant???

    If they mated, the female is almost certainly going to lay eggs. You should give her her own seperate enclosure with a proper "laying bin" inside or just fill the bottom with proper type and amound of substrate.

    Boy or girl ?

    Yep, it seems like I was looking at C. dilepis males mostly which were falsely labeled as C. senegalensis. And I suppose the "senegalensis owner" on these forum also owned another species with tarsal spurs.

    Boy or girl ?

    Really? I thought the male specimens I saw in search of male C. senegaliensis were actually male C. senagaliensis. And a senegaliensis owner mentioned his/her males having tarsal spurs. They must have been different species that look like senegaliensis then. Could you show us the sources that...

    Boy or girl ?

    Look like a perfect female. Chamaeleo senegaliensis males have fat hemipenal bulges and they also have tarsal spurs as far as I know.

    Male or female ?

    This is a female. Males start growing all three horns at the size of an inch or two (they may even be born with all three) and have much more color on their skin. Females have mostly shades of green and brown and grow a single horn or none (or one big horn with two underdeveloped horns...

    nose blockage?

    It should not be a problem. Maybe a bit too much calcium? White Crust on Nostrils part: https://www.chameleonforums.com/care/health/head-neck/

    Brookesia superciliaris and therezieni

    There are soil and leaf matter on the tail, those are not tubercles. Photos are not too good. I read people say pygmies can die of stress just because you change their cage or handle them. Even thought I don't really believe them, I don't want to risk it since I do not know anything, just...

    Brookesia superciliaris and therezieni

    I can shoot full body too but since it is nearly impossible to see the tubercles from farther away I thought it wouldn't be more helpful than tail shots. I will try to post full body lateral and dorsal shots and better tail detail shots. It is now pretty much clear to me that she(?) does not...

    Brookesia superciliaris and therezieni

    Hello everyone, I obtained a Brookesia specimen recently. It was sold as a "female Brookesia therezieni", but I am not sure about both of these being true. As far as I can see, the chameleon has no pointed lateroventral tubercles (aka. the spikes on the sides of the back continuing on the...

    Sex of my RBBB Ambilobe Panther Cham

    4 grams is hatchling size? I had 2 clutches with all having 0.4-0.5 gram hatchlings except one egg having a 0.6 gram baby. My 3 months olds were 7-9 grams. So mine also were heavier than the thread owners baby, but we should not exaggerate by saying "4 grams is hatchling size", which might...

    lay bin doesn't fit in the enclosure

    Then it will be hard to say. I guess as soon as you start to see the eggs popping between her ribs or when she starts rejecting to eat you should make the decision. If you leave her with the small laying bin, then there is the risk of her rejecting to lay the eggs and being egg-bound, since you...

    lay bin doesn't fit in the enclosure

    There is no harm in trying both rather than only trying the "big-bin-outside" method. You can just fill this one and put it in around 3 weeks after her mating. If she does not lay into this one after the 4th week, then you can put her in the big bin. My friend had a giant veiled female that lay...

    Ambilobe male not acting right

    You gutload your bugs with veggies and gutload with repashy bugburger AND use repashy calcium plus EVERY feeding? Maybe he has a problem with too much vitamins? That surely is not the advised amound or frequency of vitamins to give to a chameleon. But still, it may not be a problem caused by...

    Another Trioceros montium

    My male Jacksons and several Panthers were always bright, so I thought something might have been off with him. And pictures on the internet are always bright colored for montiums. :eek: I guess this is normal behavior though, at least for now. I will keep watching him and will try to give him...

    Another Trioceros montium

    Does anyone know if it is normal for montame chams or specifically montiums to show this kind of coloration only in the waking-up phase and going-to-sleep phase? He is very much brown at daytime in general, like in the first few photos. Ambient vivarium temp is high 60's to low 70's, spot temp...
