Experience with BackwaterReptiles.com?

Hey guys, I'm in the market for a chameleon and found this site has really cheap pricing. I was just wondering if anyone had experience with them before. I really don't want to order a cham and have it die on me in the first week. Thanks

They look to specialize in Wild Caught chameleons. You better off sticking with another company or breeder/person who sells Captive Born chameleons. Click the link on the top right of this page says sponsors there is a long list of good sellers at fair to cheap prices if you look. Aslo check Fauna BOI for feedback of sellers and there is a Classifieds in Fauna as well that has a chameleons section.

Cheap usually means wc. Less common species also tends to mean wc. If you haven't had a cham before I would not recommend a wc as your first try. To be fair, I've never heard of the seller before but they could be just as careful as some breeders. I'd look for feedback and really read their care info. Then compare it to info you find here.

BTW, the cham doesn't want to die on you in the first week either.
