    Spring 2011 Growth update!

    Here is finally an update on Leo and Drakes' growth during the past several months. It's been a long winter here so they're both anxious to get some real sunshine this spring. At least I'm anxious for them. Leo's growth has been steady and he's leveled off pretty much at around 214 grams...

    November Growth Record!

    It's been a while since I've provided an update on here about Leo and Drakes' growth, so I thought I'd finally get it done! At least I know Carol will appreciate it! In spite of my worries about low room temps, it looks like both chams are still growing and doing well. As of today...

    Comment by 'radstusky' in 'November Prey Diary - Adult Male Panther'

    I do find this information both useful and interesting. My male panther just turned one year old, would you consider him an adult at that age? I would think so, but just wanted to hear your opinion. I don't have quite the variety of feeders that you do, but the dubia especially are...

    Comment by 'radstusky' in 'October Growth record!'

    Looks like the weight loss was just a blip, his weight yesterday was at 179 grams. Doesn't Romeo have red eyes sometimes? It seem Leo does pretty much all the time, and more recently he has a spot of green near the middle too. I have noticed some subtle color changes too, like some more...

    Comment by 'radstusky' in 'Should I continue?'

    The gutload information is valuable, but I don't necessarily think you need to share it for each feeder that is fed out. Basically it is up to you, the information would be valuable, but it is a bit more work for you. Maybe a general blog about gutloading would suffice, but you've probably...

    Comment by 'radstusky' in 'Should I continue?'

    I think you should continue, and I do think that this information has value. If you're recording this information for yourself already, then you might as well share it. The value for me is that I get to see what an expert in nutrition is feeding her chameleons and compare it to my own feeding...

    October Growth record!

    During this month I was able to install a heating system for the Mistking water. I haven't made a post about this just yet, but I may still do that if there is some interest. I bought a heater for about $20 on ebay, and it does heat the water at least a little bit. However I do wish it would...

    Growth Record, September 2010

    Hard to believe that Leo and Drake are already 10 months old. Now I have to start thinking about how to handle the cold winter coming up. Not looking forward to this very much. My Mistking has been working great. I was worried a bit about overwatering the plants, but they seem to be doing...

    These amounts are for on adult male panther right? How old is he?

    Good idea! I added the ages in. Both chameleons are about the same age. Leo's approximate hatch date is 11-21-2009.

    Comment by 'radstusky' in 'Leonardo's Growth Record, August, 2010'

    Thanks! I just noticed that some dates on the graph are wrong, since we did get Drake on May 1st, so I'm not sure how I have a weight for him before then! Oh well...

    Leonardo's Growth Record, August, 2010

    August is almost over so I thought I'd go ahead and post the August growth record. As expected, Leo's growth is started to slow down a bit, but he still has some growing to do. Of course I believe chameleons have indeterminate growth, although someone can correct me on that if I'm wrong. He...

    Leonardo's Growth Record, July 2010

    This month there were some amazing changes in Leo! I was actually gone on vacation for two weeks during this month and when I came back Leo was noticeably bigger and more colorful. It was like coming home to a new cham! I'll post his entire growth record (by weight) with the July entries...

    Leonardo's Growth Record, June 2010

    Leo has had a growth spurt this month I think! I was worrying a bit that he might be behind the norm for his age, but now I think he's caught up. His weight has nearly doubled during this period. Here are his weight records for this month: 6/05/2010 29.6 g 6/12/2010 36.9 g...

    Leonardo's Visual Growth Record, May 2010

    There was a lot of growth in May, especially toward the end of the month. At the beginning he weighed in at only 13.8 grams. I was starting to worry that he was small for his age, but by the end of the month I think he was catching up. I don't have a weight for him near the end of the month...

    Leonardo's Visual Growth Record, April 2010

    Here he is in April, so if he was hatched on Nov. 21, then he is going on 5 months old here. He seems a bit small for his age here, at least compared to some of the other pics I've seen on the forum. But then again, I don't know his exact birthday and who knows how accurate everyone else is...

    Leonardo's Visual Growth Record, March 2010

    Here are a few pics from March. Leonardo is around 4 months old in these pics and I have the pics time-stamped.

    Leonardo's Visual Growth Record, February 2010

    As stated in the previous entry I received Leonardo on January 27th and his approximate hatch day was November 21st. I received him therefore when he was about 8 weeks old. This blog entry shows some pictures taken of him during the month of February, when his age was in the range from 9 to 12...
