Admittedly, I have never bred or raised any viviparious species. I have read and heard many first-hand accounts of birthing and raising of babies, but I have never come across any first-hand accounts of the mother turning around and eating her young, despite reading many warnings on this forum...

I am looking to seriously downsize my collection due to an upcoming move in the near future. I have available: two quadricornis & three cristatus. A picture of each is attached at the end of this post. More pictures can be seen if you go through my posting history, or if you ask me for...

Hi all, I have to get rid of some of my collection. I have significant upcoming travel plans that are going to impede the keeping of some of my animals. :( I am looking to sell: 0.2 T quadricornis - $150/ea Lots of photos of these guys can be seen in this thread. These two are...

I am selling two used ReptiBreeze enclosures. They measure 18"x18"x36". They are in excellent condition, but one has a small rusted area of screen, about 2" diameter on the back wall. The bottom front door lifts up (on hinges), and the unit comes with a removable bottom for easy cleaning...

Hi all, I am on a Mac. I take a lot of photos, and go, "gee, that would look so much better cropped," but I never, ever bother to crop. I use a Canon and the associated software, but I end up cropping with Preview since it's much easier and quicker; however, it's still a pain in the butt to...

I picked this chubby thing up locally the other day. Can anyone tell me what it is? She sure likes to drink. Drew

9 months and 9 days later, the first one pipped. It took about 48 hours for 10 out of 11 to emerge. Right out of the egg, they have no problem gaping, biting me (well, 2 did), or hurling the stink eye. This one in particular fell over as soon as I lifted the incubator lid, with...

I have 6-8 T. quadricornis available. They all hatched the during the 2nd week of March. I would be willing to let them go sometime in June. Shipping to the states is not possible. I am located in Ottawa, Ontario, but I get to Montreal & the GTA quite often. I prefer to not ship, but I...

Well, quad so far. Only one has hatched, and it looks like he's gonna be at least a day ahead of his clutchmates. Laid October 7, hatching March 7th, which puts them at 5 months on-the-dot. I lost this quad girl last week, so I guess karma was being good to me today. Here's the old...

Here's a small part of a particular cham of mine. I think that the bright colour splotch gives away the species ID, but I'm wondering if the pink colour in this area is normal? I have not seen one with this colouration before; I typically notice bright yellows or funky greens in the same...

I first noticed she may be ready (let's call it day 0) because I came home from work and she was sitting on her chillout branch. I don't have any dirt brown chameleons, so it must have been Ms Cristatus sitting there, caked in dirt. Her terrarium was a mess; plants were somewhat uprooted, and...

To satisfy my curiosty with regards to Tr. w. wiedersheimi & Tr. w. perreti, do most wild caught shipments usually contain one or the other subspp, or both? Does one 'harvest' from one area usually have 100% of one subspecies (I suppose so, by definition of subspecies & geographic barriers)...

Hey all, I just came across this very recent article (in press 2009, Physiol Biochem Zool), in which the authors are able to show significant changes in basking behaviours in response to dietary vitamin D3. Specifically, panther chameleons maintained on a diet with "low" D3 had an intrinsic...

Hi all, So, I have been gathering leftover supplies and making a list of what to buy this weekend from HD/Rona in order to make a couple more screen cages. I don't remember how, but I came across a ZooMed enclosure called ReptiBreeze. The prices are pretty decent - just a few $$$ more than...

Hi all, A little confused here. When people refer to their "hissers," are they referring to their dubia roaches (blaptica dubia), or their 'giant madagascar roaches' (gromphadorhina portentosa)? Or both? It seems that the former is far more common, but I've also seen the latter endorsed...
