I hatched this K. tavetana girl out a while back and sent her to Laurie. Laurie needs room for her little deremensis so she sent her back to me and is even letting me pay her off after I get back to work since I am laid off. Dont know how some of you can call her mean. One of the nicest ladies I have talked too:D

Anyway, she is here, Laurie:p

Thanks Jared, I am glad she is with you, I had her in a laying bin but no luck. She sure looks like she made the trip great.
Keeping 21 deremensis babies over the winter is going to take lots of space & lots of food. I am hoping I only need 7 cages but if they get fussy then I am looking at 21 cages, plus my regular guys.
 
Sounds like you have your work cut out for you, Laurie!!:eek: I know those winters last much longer than they do here. My uncle is headed out to Montana in a few weeks to go hunting. Ill have him take some off your hands:D

Thanks, Hoj!! She is great and so is this species!! My collection is finally getting back to normal:D

You just send your uncle on over or better yet come with him. Where in Montana is he headed? The Babies are small, I could send you 5 , do you have time & space for them?

Im not sure the place he goes hunting. I know its for mule deer most of the time. Not that that helps any:eek:

I would love to get some and raise them but I have to keep focused. I have been all over the place with chams and now its time to settle down and concentrate on a few Kinyongia species. K. tavetana, boehmei and matschiei will be what I focus on for a while.
 
too bad mine from nick died in 5 days!:-/

She looks great, and I love the enlarged bluish scales on her casque and the red interstitial color on her throat!:) hopefully you can get a nice male for her soon.
 
Thanks guys!!

The large turquoise scales are definitely one cool thing about the females!! Hopefully I can get a male soon or get the one I sent to Theresa on a breeder loan after I get this girl to lay and recover.

Definitely a tone or relief, Jessica!! My collection is now all Kinyongia with one Trioceros. Adding a couple matschiei in the near future too!! After testing a lot of candy, non has impressed me more than Kinyongia species;)

Thats only because you havent kept Bradypodion long enough!:p
 
Jared,

I have a decent clutch (11 eggs? can't remember off the top of my head) of tavetana incubating that should hatch soon. They were laid in early/mid December if I remember correctly (have it written on the bin at home). I have them at 67º at the moment and have been toying with the idea of pulling them out of the incubator and bringing them to room temp (73ºF) for the rest of the incubation, but I haven't done it yet. Guess I've figured theirs no harm in leaving them be at 67 for the time being but should probably pull them out. At any rate, I'll be sure to save a male for you when they hatch.

Nice Jared. I love those tav's! They are such a unique species. Laurie hooked you up.

You are right about Laurie....she has to be one of the nicest ladies ever!!!!:D

She offered to send me a quad once and said I could pay her whenever. Who does that these days? Especially to someone on a forum. That being said:

Laurie you are one of the best!

Thanks, but I should have learned my lesson from the guy who got the pair form me, never paid a penny and worst of all cooked both of my babies.:(:( Now I am careful who I trust. But you and Jared are both people I do trust.:)

Thank you, Laurie!!! Jared is a good guy! As for the guy who stole from you.....his day will come.
 
Thats awesome, Chris!!! Id much rather have a captive bred/hatched male considering the shape these guys come in and being tough to acclimate. The three clutches I kept around 67 (thinkgeek fridge fluctuation) all hatched out right arund the 10.5 month mark.

Paul, tavetanas kick any Bradypodions ass any day:p

For the size of chameleon they are, their eggs sure do take a long time to hatch.

Actually. I did bump them up just a few degrees. I did it before the first clutch hatched so the other two clutches would have been exposed to the higher side longer and longer. I need to find my notes and refresh my memory a bit:rolleyes:

Yes they do take a long time, Monties!! Well worth the wait though:D
