Senegal Info. Need YOUR Help =)

[YumeKitsune4]

I'm currently enrolled in a web design class and our final project is to design a 5-10 page website on a topic of our choosing. I chose an information site on little Senegals because darn it, they are awesome, lol.

I know all of the basic stuff like housing, food, etc. What I'm looking for are different viewpoints about the species from people who have kept them. Things like personality and what sets them apart from other species of chameleons. (I've only ever dealt with one and I'd like some variety.) Also, if anyone has any pictures they want to share, feel free because I may need them, lol.

This site will not be live, it's just to turn in for a project. If it does get published in any way, anyone who contributed will be notified and credited.

Thanks!

Nobody has any love for the Senegals? lol

Senegals are a great species! They are generally active and accepting of some handling. Some can be easily stressed but most of them I've had aren't. They are difficult to get to breed in my experience...don't seem to lay eggs without having been mated and don't usually have as many parasites when WC as is usually said.

Good enough?

About 2 1/2 years ago I gave my senegal "lucy" to a kid from the jr. He had fallen in love with him/(no idea), and his dad came to me asking to buy Lucy for Nic for his 13th birthday.

Lucy was a friendly little thing when I had her but nothing like after nice got her. After Nic had her about 4 months his parents call and ask if I would stop over as they had a question about Lucy. I went over and what they wanted to know if there was anything wrong with Lucy as she would JUMP out of the cage into Nic's hands every time he opened her cage. Not Mom, not Dad, not even me, just Nic. I just told them that Lucy must really trust Nic and to just be careful. Nic still loves his girl and tells the world about her. To think I almost refused to give her up as it was for a kid!

Yeeeaaahhh, I knew you guys were out there!

Thanks a ton! This stuff will help out a lot. I'm also doing my animation project on chameleons so if it turns out the way I hope, I'll figure out how to post it on here
