Luis,
There's a ton of validity to what you have said, however, I would be so bold as to say not so many sellers care in the way that you do for your animals. So many times I have seen various species come in from people selling them on places like kingsnake where you can see the awful/subpar...
I've been around the chameleon community and these forums for a long time. I have a very good clue as to what's going on. YOU don't have a clue as to what I do or don't know. :)
You should not make statements about people when you have no clue about what they are doing (your own words...
It doesn't demand anything but almost certain death in a relatively small timespan. Too often I receive WC chameleons that die quickly after arrival, and many of them were high priced. They come in after being in the care of the importer for months (so they say), treated and "eating great." In...
That makes you seem fishy when you say things like that.
Food for thought for those in this thread.
For the record, I too am in the camp that these high prices damage things more than help. There are other "high" prices these animals could be priced at to keep novices away, but still give...
I think an 18x18x18 is minimum. I keep mine in 18x18x24. A single male will literally use every vertical and lateral inch of this space to move about if provided it.

These guys like it humid. Don't saturate, and let things dry out, but also don't let the enclosure get too low with the humidity levels.
Keep your temps below 75, with a nice drop in the evening.
They'll...
Nick,
My clutch of these didn't make it, but going from my past Campani, I'm fairly confident baby #1 is male and #2 is definitely female. Congrats on your success of getting viable eggs to hatch!
Do you mind my asking what part of the world you are in to be given such an opportunity?
Are these somehow confiscated animals that you have been put in care of, or what's the story? I am fascinated by this. :)
Hey all!,
Haven't posted photos in general for a long while so figured I would take a few today. I usually just keep these to myself and a few friends. :)
Enjoy!
Carpets are generally very aggressive (especially the females) and will run one another down until one dies from the stress of it all.
The setup you mentioned here would not be adequate for multiple lats.
