Alright guys, following up with my last thread, https://www.chameleonforums.com/receptive-female-panther-17218/ , and my males unwillingness to go forth and reproduce, I took my little female up to Pam's Chams, fearing that she had already cycled a clutch (infertile, of course) as a result of being housed with my male for a day. She was still showing extremely receptive and we arrived on Halloween evening and were led to Pam's cham room. We tried putting Sencha in with two or three different ambilobe males....she was having none of it. She would stay receptive for a bit and then show gravid coloration, hiss, gape, lunge....we were pretty crestfallen at that, thinking she had just come out of being receptive and had started her infertile clutch. As a last resort, we put her in with one of Pam's best breeders (not something Pam would normally do). Mad Max. Well, Sencha must have been waiting for something she liked because she immediately fired up bright pink and sat still for his pursuit. He was very gentle and they had about a 25 minute solid session and she showed gravid right after. I didn't get very good pics and at first glance, you can't even really see my little female.
And now, enjoying a misting and much darker in person, I assure you, Sencha:
