Couldn't think of a funny title, but here's a quick picture of my new C. porcus or Cuban False chameleon. Pretty neat

Looks awesome. How big will it get?

 

[Lizardlover]

very interesting looiking lizard....for some reason the facial expression bugs me, has a sinister look but maybe its just me haha

hows its temperament?

 

[Fearaffect]

Why did Siegal put these anoles in the cham section in KS?

 

[Lizardlover]

Yea the larger ones intimidated me at first, the adults are impressive. This little one is very laid back and loves to hand feed, the adults are a bit defensive but are not too bad. They are snail eaters so I wouldn't want to be bitten by one.

I guess he figured cham people would like them. Think about how many people check the "anole" section. It says in the ad they are anoles though.

That is a cool looking guy to add to your collection. Where do you get snails to feed something like that? I wouldn't think they could eat very big snails. Sorry but eating snails - ugh.

Which one of the workers are you I know just about everyone lol

Laurie, they are (thankfully) not primarily snail eaters, and eat just about anything a Cham will. They still have a very strong jaw for crushing shells, and you'd be amazed at some pictures I've seen of them eating huge snails.

Snipe, I only work Sundays.
