newbie to chams and this forum

[ZuggieTheCham]

hi im in norfolk u? im in the land of tractors lol, this is great ive only joined this forum today and everyone seems realy friendly and want to help I will probs end up asking r00s of questions lol I wanna make sure I do things right, ive got myself the xl reptibreeze and am gonna get some cups to hang off branc:hes so the wee one wont struggle to find foodso all I need is the uv starter the tube and reflector then im ready to go , thanks again for all your help realy appreciated

Ahh have u got a combine harvester ?? Lol! and Im from a place called lytham down near preston/blackpool way
And I've been in your shoes a newbie and I've learned loads on here and with what I've learned ill help as much as possible as people did for me thats what this forums all about and dont worry ive asked more than a 100 myself lol and if u wanna do things right then youve deffo come to the right place,
I have my cham in a large reptibreeze cage too i dont use cups to feed as he eats them before i have chance to put them in!! Lol but its definatly a good option when ur getting a baby so you can make sure he is eating and keep an eye on how much too!
And when u do get your cham ill give you some good websites to order food off and so what sort of cham are you wanting to get which do you like the look of most from what you have researched so far?

that is cool u got the same viv as me, how did you get the dripfper pipe inside the viv? the viv? the free range is cool I dont think my oh would be too keen lol she dont like lizards apart from my beardie lol

and I realy like the yemen most and closely behind is the panther, the only reason the yemen beats the panther in my eyes is the huge casque but ive alwaus like lizards with large spikes and that just suits me lol yes I know im wiered well thats what my girlfriend says lol but my 4year old boy loves lizards which is a bonus

lol and i poked a hole in the screen with some scissors! And well i must be weird then as i absolutely love them and would have vines all over my house if i could, me and the boyfriend are going to move to a bigger place just so Zuggie can have his own room!! And maybe get another one haha
And yeah i like the veilds for there casque too, but the panthers just won me over with their colours! And they have a nice nose lol heres a pic of my little guy

hes cool lol, I still havnt decided I do like the panthers but whichevr I grt will be male and I know you cant sex panthers from birth can ya? which will mean probs having to travell to ger it, will just have to keep my eyes open and I gotta wait for some eggs to hatch which shoild be any day then once ive sold the babies I can set my viv up and look for a cham

Thanks and yeah he is one cool dude!! And tbh i didn't research into any other chameleon as i was around just panthers!
And yes it is difficult to sex any baby's from birth,but most breeders dont let babys go untill around 3 months old by then they can tell most of the time, some species are harder to sex than others,i dont think the panthers are the hardest,
And i might end up getting a veild myself one day but i live just around the corner from my breeder and he has a massive collection of panthers and they just amaze me and i want another panther already lol!! Addicted!!
