Updated photos of T. Sternfeldi babies!

5 out of 8 hatchlings are growing, eating and I noticed some green colouring is finally starting to show through!

Great looking little guys!

Carl

Great species!
Can I see a picture of the sire and dame?

I'm not sure who the sire is, as she was purchased already gravid, but here is the mother. She has such a wonderful pattern on her, and its started to show through with her babies!

You're female has the same pattern as mine does, and the babies are adorable!

I am thinking that I need to have a talk with your hubby!! How can he expect you not to keep your little ones that are so darn cute? He sounds like my husband. What is wrong with these men we married????

Also if you don't get an answer to your posts just shoot me a pm and I will always try to help. I am not on as much any more, life seems to get i the way. I can also call Canada free if you need fast help.

Laurie, thank you so much for the kind words! I may have to take you up on that offer! Im a bit more concerned with my gravid female right now than the babies at this point. The babies seem to be doing everything they should be right now (eating, drinking, pooping, growing and exploring),. but I'm afraid that my female may have an RI. I posted a new thread about it today with all my husbandry details if you wanted to take a look? I'll post the link.

Also, our husbands should have known what they were getting into when they married us . I know mine should've known that just a dog wouldn't ever be enough for me. We currently have a chocolate lab, a cat, a betta fish and now 6 chams. I'm already planning my next setup in my head now for possibly a panther cham or a mellers. I'm really in love with Mellers chams but it might prove difficult to find one here in Canada, and convincing my husband will be a struggle. lol!

When ever I see the patterns on Sternfeldi I think back to my first chameleon that I had in 1970 when I lived in Ethiopia- your pictures bring back many good memories... they are wonderful and I wish you the best of luck with the little guys (or girls) - I'm not sure what species my first was - but I hope you keep putting up pictures ...

I will definitely continue to keep posting photos as the babies progress! Its so nice to be surrounded by people who are as passionate about them as i am. My husband is sort of 'afraid' of them so I don't really have many people to talk to about the babies progress or the funny little things my adults do. (I know right?? AFRAID?! I mean, c'mon, the adults are like 5 inches long...lol)

I'll try my best to get updated photos each week for everyone to enjoy!

Christine they are absolutely adorable and soooo tiny. Congrats!

I can't wait to get one! I sure hope there's a female in there!

updated photos: 3 Weeks old

Here are the new photos of my 4 wee ones. I'm going to try and get a weekly shot of them every sunday when I clean out their cups so you all can watch them grow. The first guy is growing so fast and for some reason is almost double the size of the other 3! Is this normal??

Also, they're all starting to show some really cool patterns/ colors. They all have tons of yellow!









Ps. Dont mind my disgusting nails! I'm working on them right now as I type!

ADORABLE I LUV THEM!!

They look great Christine!

Carl

Omg so tiny!! Absoloutely adorable! I'll be waiting for Sunday pics!

Guess I need to follow your thread. I have fallen in love with your tiny angels.

Speaking of husbands.....Shortly after we moved from southern California to Montana, I was home sick. I solved the problem by having about 25 or so adult chams. Hubby had no idea what to do. Did I mention I also had 12 bearded dragons, and 3 uromastyx? We also have 2 dogs.

To everyone who has been following my thread, and has posted in regards to my wee ones, thank you so much for the kind words! Every post means so much to me! I will continue to update once a week!

It's so nice to hear others have fallen in love with my little babies! I love them to death, but I'm biased

Holy CRAP!! 25 chams?! Where do you keep them all?? If I were single, I'm almost positive I would be the biggest animal hoarder on the planet, and terribly terribly broke!! My husband keeps my obsession reigned in. Currently we have a chocolate lab, a cat, a betta fish and now 6 chams (including my 4 babies). I'd like to get a few more chams but we need to finish our basement first. I want ALLLLLLLLL the chams!!

Wow - 40 reptiles - last year on this day I had 2 cats and that's all living in my house- We now have 3 cats 3 chameleons and 2 bearded dragons-
It all started with a girl at work coming in and telling me how her jackson had babies- and me remembering the little guy I had when I was 13 -
I was so lucky to find this site or I would have a couple of empty cages and and extra stray cat. Tomorrow is my Jackson's Sherlock's first birthday - I didn't figure out that she was a girl until she was about 4 months old....
Christine - I love your pictures -
