Trioceros montium

Calumma boettgeri - female

The female was pregnant but it has absorbed some embryo, you think that?

WOW - Great Collection. Thanks for sharing with us. Please don't take offense to the "junior" membership or your "lack of experience to post in the species section" I think it has to do with preventing spammers and low lifes into the forum.

I don't know about the absorbtion of the eggs, that is a Chris, Fabian, Jared, Luis,Ryan, Brad or those Southern Calif boys kind of question, but I have wondered that myself as I have a female montium that lost a lot of weight and was wondering if she lost her eggs. I don't see why not, since the shell is the last thing to be put on the egg before it is laid and if times were lean, the animal would be able to absorb the egg and save itself.

Are you breeding the montiums?

Amazing chameleons you have there

Very nice! They're all great, but I really appreciate the B. thamnobates - don't see nearly enough of those.

Great animals Eric! Of course the Calumma is a rare sight in captivity and yours is a very nice looking specimen. I also like the blues coming out in the B. thamnobates.


I've read about female C. calyptratus absorbing non-fertile eggs but I haven't seen much on ovoviviparous chameleons absorbing eggs or embryo's. I've noticed our B. transvaalense female looks rounder some days than others and the thought has crossed my mind but for them to do that you need to question a few things. Has she been mated recently? Are you feeding enough to develop the eggs and babies during gestation?

I had a pair of Boettgeri born in captivity, but the boy died for incomprehensible reason.
The thamnobates female has always been fed properly, it was coupled to the end of April, so it should give birth in a short time I hope

Thanks to everyone for the compliments
