My Greenhouse Trioceros Quadricornis Gracilior

Motherlode Chameleon

Chameleon Enthusiast
I have been under the radar with this one for months now. However I picked up a male Trioceros quadricornis gracilior. Trioceros quadricornis quadricornis has always been one of my preferred species to work with and keep from out on the ranch house. Now that I have got a greenhouse and many people on the Chameleon Forums are breeding this species (lines of captive bred species should be available) I figured it was time to jump back one the Trioceros quadricornis, this time Trioceros quadricornis graciilor bandwagon:D. These are some pictures of my male Trioceros quadricornis gracilior.

Hey Jeremy,
Are there a lot of gracilior around?
I know Janet has some eggs, and one other pair out there, can't remember who.

Carl Cattau, and myself as far as I know. I believe he ended up with the pair Laurie/Perry erroneously started out with. My female succumbed but left me with a retained clutch which I'm hoping three are good, fertile eggs. Sam at backwater had some also but I'm not sure if he continued working with them or not. How about you, Jeremy, do you have a female? It'd be nice to know whose working with them if we're lucky enough to necessitate bloodline exchanges. Come out, come out wherever you are.
 
Well, there you go. Thanks Sam. Good luck with everything!

Where have you been stranger? Been a while. I am still bugging Bill to send his papers :)D ) for us. I have forgotten which you need.

I will pm you on gracilior's

That's a beautiful chameleon, awesome job on that green house.

Thanks about the greenhouse and the Trioceros quadricornis gracilior.

There are not as much as the standard Quads Trioceros quadricornis quadricornis. I know of some people that are keeping and working with this subspecies though.

Hi Bob,

My gracilior female is laying eggs at this exact moment. Jeremy almost bought her a few weeks ago. She's a beauty.

Sam

I did and I may yet buy her. I have got a scheduling problem and have to build some new enclosures first for the chameleons I have got before I can buy more chameleons for now.

I eventually want to add a female to pair with my male for breeding. As of now I have got a couple of builds ahead of a female Trioceros quadricornis gracilior. If it does not happen this year I am going to have to hold off until next years import.

Well, there you go. Thanks Sam. Good luck with everything!

Sam has got a wall of incubating eggs!! Later this year most of you may want to call him for extra captive bred babies of multiple species.

Great to hear the Quadricornis group is doing good. Laurie your buddy Chuck G has Trioceros quadricornis graciliors. Is he part of your Quadricornis group?

Jeremy I would be thrilled to death to have Chuck want to be a part of our group, but Chuck has wayyyy to much class to ever be part of a group.:(

I am happy to hear you have a quad, doesn't matter what kind, you can't go wrong with a quad.

Laurie

I am starting to question your perception of people? PM Chuck not about Calumma parsonii parsonii about Trioceros quadricornis gracilior and having a go about swapping babies for the breeding group? He maybe good with that arrangement! Chuck G chime in here!!!..

Yes, I have a pair of graciliors from the February import.

They are both doing very well. The female laid a clutch of 14 two months ago. This thread prompted me to look at the eggs and 12 look good so far. The female is gravid again and weighs 6g more yesterday than she did when she laid two months ago, but she doesn't look anywhere near ready to lay.

I have not introduced her to my male. All her eggs are from a breeding or breedings that happened in the wild. I won't introduce them until she is not producing fertile eggs.

I really love my male gracilior. He is just such a pretty and elegant lizard.

Awesome. Good to know there's some possibilities for the future. Hopefully we can foothold and gain some momentum. Good luck to all.
