future panther owner! Quick advice please

[Ace]

Hello everyone!!!

i am new to the forums and just wanted to say that i will be purchasing 2 panther chameleons from Kammerflage Kreations. One ambilobe and one nosy be. Just wanted to get extra quick tips and advice. I already researched for about 3 months and what confused me whether ir not use rep-cal w/d3 or rep-cal without d3. I know rep-cal w/ d3 is used for chameleons that are usually kept indoors, but it seems mostly everyone hear in the forums use repcal without d3, and i just want to know why.

Also here are the sires of my soon to be owned panthers.

P.s: i also have owned a male veiled for about 3 years but almost a year ago had to sell him because my life became busy with school and helping my family going through tough times But now i saved enough money and have alot of time on my hands to care for these amazing reptiles.

Any and all advice are welcome ...after all knowledge is power

Both. You want the plain calcium most of the time, at least on those feeders than have the wrong phosphorous to calicum ratio. D3 you use less often.

thx "Sandrachameleon"...i will be sure to look through the links carefully, and your right when it all really depends on the factors that contribute to caring for chameleons.

I am also a kammerflage owner. I sent you a private message. By the way the Sires are beautiful as all their chams are! I think you will be very happy dealing with them. The owner is wonderful!

I got mine from a different breeder and about 6 months in was having trouble with one eating enough. I talked to Ed from Kammerflage and swithched to his supplements schedule and it seems to have helped. Just ask Ed and Liddy for there schedule.

Howdy Ace,

No problem . We often have teenagers (and younger) with parents doing the driving, attend meetings.
