Take a guess about their specise :)

they look parsonii, but the nostrial projections would be quite large for such a lil guy...either way they look awesome, and i want one!!

That's right~They show an adult look on the nose too early

Calumma Parsonii- indigenous to Madagascar (final guess)

Yes, they are originally from Madagascar, and I will update more about how I get them and their growing info to share.

Calumma oshaughnessyi?

Bingo!

 

[HSTUDIO]

I agree, they look like C. oshaughnessyi to me.

Chris

Bingo!
I have viewed your record about hatching and growing of High-casqued Chameleon.It's amazing!

 

[Bradycham]

Those are awesome little chams! Thanks for sharing!

Damn, I found this thread too late! haha My immediate thought was oshaughnessyi as well. How in the world would you get your hands on one of those? Hmmmm

Right answer is never late to be right! I will update more to answer your question.

CB of course Nice ones, what do they cost in China ?

I caught them in the wild in Madagascar. I'v never seen this specise on sale in China.

 

[HSTUDIO]

their freak nose (hehe just kidding) it looks like an adults parsoni's nose

It is just their freak nose that makes them cuter.

Interesting looking little guys, how did you get them?

I'll tell u later.

X4 The flaps are longer than what you would find on a C. globifer. Nice pictures!! Your animals look healthy.

C.globifer seems doesn't have those green spots on the flanks and legs, even around the lip sometimes as C. ossaughnessyi has.
Ths for sharing!

Are you keeping any other Calumma?

I picked C. ossaughnessyi. Yours is similar to C. globifer except it is not.

I'm now keeping only tow C.ossaughnessyis as Calumma. Others are Panthers, lateralis,Veileds, Jackons,Brookesia.
C.ossaughnessyi has clear green spots all over their body when young, and two different colors(brown and green) apart on the body when adult. This is what I think the most outstanding difference we can tell them from others.
By the way, can I have a look at your C.ossaughnessyi?

 

[HSTUDIO]

I was about to say Parsons...


Hmm.... This is a hard one.

I see you have red eyed tree frog. That's exactly what I'm going to keep later. Still don't know how to tell their gender before adult.

I actually have only got a Calumma parsonii. Other Calumma are virtually non existent here in the USA. Here's a link to pictures of my Parsonii.

You are a lucky man to have such a gorgeous orange eye!!
Should be a very special meal for this fat boy to have that big stick worm!

 

[Motherlode Chameleon]

Thanks! Your C. oshaughnessyi is spectacular. You don't normally see those anywhere except Madagascar. I hope they conserve both species extensively in their native Madagascar. Especially with Madagascar being a world heritage site.

Me, my wife and a friend of mine, were travelling to Madagascar for 13 days in Arpil this year. These two C. ossaughnessyis were caught there by chances in Ranomafana.
Here is some info about their indigenous natural environment:

The temprature is around 15-17 D.C at about 7h00 in the morning. Peak temprature is around 36-38 D.C at noon time. (in the open air)

The UVB degree is around 40 uw/qcm at about 3-4h00 in the afternoon. Peak UVB degree is around 300-350 uw/qcm at noon time. (in the open air)

This pic was taken just when we found them.

This pic is to show where they most likely live.

Wow!! Sorry to hear you had to smuggle them. Great pictures though. You must have had a great time exploring Madagascar. Did you find other Calumma in Madagascar? Such as Yellow Lip Parsons in Ranomafana.

I just read this thread and by the looks of it, it seems that these animals were apparently smuggled from Madagascar. I may be wrong but noticing how the OP has denied to really answer the question many have been asking as to how he got them, it is obvious in my opinion that they were indeed smuggled out of their native habitat.
As such I do feel the obligation to speak up against this, and the fact that perhaps by admiring this individual for having them is wrong in my opinion. I really enjoy admiring pictures of rare specimens, however, I reject the fact the individuals like this are illegally taking from a world heritage, like Motherlode mentioned, just so that they can latter show off and gain the admiration of others for having rare species.
Nothing personal here, and as I said I do enjoy the pics but would have really prefer that these animals stayed where they belong, or if that you posses them to at least have acquired them legally. It is such a sad thing to see species like this illegally been taken from their natural environment without thinking the harm done to the hobby and nature overall. Just my two cents on this.
