Kenyan Hoehnelli female

[AACblackout]

Been waiting for a hoehnelli for awhile and she finally came in. She is beutiful and from I have heard she looks gravid. This will be my first non furcifer pardalis and I am worried like any owner that buys a new locale or chameleon or anything. But either way I am learning and trying to make her as comfortable as can be while leaving her alone.

Here is a measurement of her here

Here is a top view so you can see how plump she is, definitely seems to be either very healthy or carrying and extra load.

I want to thank Steve Mc. And Bobby from Chameleons International I hope to do buisness with you in the future.

She looks extremely gravid! Start getting your baby cages ready.

Wow, she looks like it could be any day now. I think you got more than one hoehnelii for your money.

Being that I wasn't expecting to get a gravid female I don't know much about treating and caring for a live birth. Can anyone help me with what I need to but and have setup. From lighting to food to cage size

Definitely agree with laurie, but I can also say, with any ovoviviparous species be ready for some losses.. just because they pop out ready to roll does not mean they will be rolling very far. Lots of fruit flies and tiny pinheads. PM the people laurie mentioned who can help you out further and in more detail.

I have a terrarium I can put them in that's nor to big and gets good air flow I'm just worried about the first couple of days

 

[zlew]

how can you tell if they are babies or just a regular egg-laying? or does this species not do that?

 

[zlew]

oh they are ovoviviparous

She looks like a little tank! I'm sure you will have little ones very soon.
