I ordered 1500 crickets which were set to arrive today prior to 7 o'clock. Well I had to take my kid to the ER because I thought she may have swelling in her throat (she's fine) and I missed the stupid FedEx guy by an hour and a half.
I opened my cricket box to find them all looking dead...
But I REALLY wouldn't mind strangling this one:

Well I wasn't aware that UPS has a "relax" time during the holidays that allows them to be an hour and a half late with their shipments, did you? Well they do. I just found this out, and I'm expecting a new friend this morning. And it is NOT warm outside here in the great white North, its about...
I am so incredibly sickened by this.

And they just went on shopping.
No, no more scary elves.
Okashi, after misting and feeding:

Steve wanted to come out:
And get on the scale:
But Charlie was too busy enjoying his new plant:
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
You will all probably think I'm nuts after you watch this:
Merry Christmas (almost!)

(I'm NOT good at posting videos, I don't know how this will show up.) In case anyone is confused, yes that is me, yes those are my chameleons and my kid. :P
I thought it would be interesting to find out how all of your little Melleri are growing! My little Melleri (Okashi) that I got from Mike at FlChams was 19 grams as of today and approximately 8 or 9 inches. I am estimating since I couldn't get him/her to uncoil his/her tail. Anyone else?
Ok everyone. What are three items that you can't live without in the care of your chameleons that aren't necessarily on the list of must haves in chameleon husbandry (ie, heat bulbs, UVB bulbs and fixtures, feeders)
My three:
1) Paper towels
2) Baked sticks from the yard (save money on...
Does anyone use the China Doll or Radermachera sinica in their enclosures? It is relatively new to the United States. I have been told that it is non-toxic and appears to be quite hardy, not to mention beautiful.
Any thoughts or experiences?
Just as the title states, I am looking for some fluorescent fixtures. I have a bunch of 24 inchers, but I'm looking to upgrade sizes for my larger cages. I am looking, first and foremost, for a fixture (more than one probably) that will fit a 36" reptisun. I am also interested in 48" fixtures...
I thought I had already posted my Charlie photos here, but I must have been dreaming!
Here is Charlie, the BB Ambilobe at 5 or 5.5 months in the huge ficus in my cham room:
Yeah, they're a little blurry, but you get the picture!
Steve is about to start another shed, but Ryan requested some photos and here they are! Steve is Raul's (Ryan Jarosek's beautiful Ambilobe) brother.
Steve after checking himself out in the mirror:
Steve and my handless arm:
Looking cute:
In the big ficus:
Hello everyone!
I have a two part question.
1) First of all, my five month old Meller's, whom I just got from Mike a week ago today, seems very interested in attacking and chewing on a couple of the sticks that I have put in his enclosures as walking paths. I made sure to strip the...
Hey everyone! I just got my CH 5 month old Melleri from Mike at Fl Chams this morning! He/she is the cutest little thing!
I know these photos are terrible, but I didn't want to freak him/her out before he is settled in. They were the best I could to before he/she crawled into the foliage. I am...
I just got one of Mike's CH babies today, and I'm getting ready to feed him/her. Now, I have a schedule all set up for my panthers, but I wondered, are you all supplementing your Melleri differently than you are supplementing the rest of your chameleons? What is the schedule you use? Bear in...
But I'm back :D. My computer completely crashed. I had to send it out to be fixed, which took (counts in head) three weeks. In the meantime I've been spending a lot of time staring at my chameleons, rather than the computer screen.
I missed everyone, and I hope things are well!
I just started feeding out hornworms since all the silk worms seem to have temporarily disappeared. I was wondering whether those big guys bite? I noticed when I gave one to Steve today that the thing whipped around and it looked like it tried to bite him right in the eye turret. I don't think...
I just recieved my new baby BB Ambilobe from Chuck G over at Heroic Chameleons this morning! Unfortunately I lent out my camera to a friend so all I have are the photos of my baby Chuck sent me before he was sent to me. He is so beautiful and clearly really well taken care of! He is 3.5 months...
Alright, my little boy panther started a shed yesterday, and began it with his back legs and tail base. I bumped up the humidity to 70% and misted as usual. Today, he is only about halfway up his back and the rest doesn't even look like it is about to shed. I have never seen him do this, nor...
