I understand ;) ; this was one of the first things I read mentioned on female cham care that you can't be 100% sure with the females (at least the pet store ones.) It won't matter one way or the other, she's not ever going to be bred but just a pampered pet.
I feed dusted/gutloaded dubia to...
I do plan on training her to cup feed, especially with dubia; I thought that the cup was a cool thing to do for them. I'm a little grossed out at holding things like roaches (I am a wuss and will have to work on this,) but maybe I could get away with using blunt plastic tweezers? Though I don't...
Nosy Be's are gorgeous!!!!; thank you for the information :) Her name is Munchkin because she likes to eat a lot (I'll just call her Munch.) I am really looking forward to meeting her, and seeing those colors in person.
A lot of my reptiles are rescues anyways, which is why this person asked...

Thank you for the much appreciated reply and greeting :D I wouldn't feel right telling the current owner I'd take her in without first understanding what I was agreeing to. I also appreciate the links to the female specific care; I had read that I would need a lay box for her but I had yet to...
I am looking into taking on a female Panther chameleon (not sure what locality yet) for an acquaintance who has cancer and can't take care of her anymore. I currently keep Gargoyle and Crested geckos and I was hoping to get some thoughts, advice or tips from other forum members to help me out in...
