    Captive Experience

    This Trioceros montium pair I acquired from West Coast Chameleon Farms in November 1996. The male had a small chip on one of his front horns. This species did great when feed field plankton and other small insects. This species required densely planted terrariums with high humidity and regularly available water (mistings). They are a personable chameleon species.

    Breeding Notes

    I got one clutch of eggs from my female Trioceros montium female. My incubator did not have a cooling mechanism and the clutch molded over after about 3 months in the summer inside the ranch house.
