Fantastic pics!

Enclosure looks amazing but someone died below it...just saying... I like the skull there ROFL reminds me of the romancing the stone movie scene in the jungle with the plane crash.

The background almost ruins it but capturing the attack and the great lighting on the chameleon makes up for the artificial background.

Not wanting to handle roachs is one thing that I can't argue with but there are a number of roaches you can get shipped to FL. Just not dubai and a few others. Green Banana Roaches, Surinam Roaches, and you mentioned Discoid are just a few you can get shipped here. Just in case you ever give up...

I found a bearded dragon/chameleon breeder in Cape Coral with Discoids. Anyone looking for them in Southwest FL should look up http://www.redroomreptiles.com/discoids-roaches. Hope it's okay to post a non-sponsor link. If not I'm sorry:(

Not out of the woods yet but she looks amazing compared to day 1!

I'm still in the research and development stages of acquiring a chameleon but I'm looking to find a source for discoid roaches in the Cape Coral to Naples area of Florida. If any of you know of a local source please chime in! If no one local turns up I'll just order some from Nick B. on the...

Thanks Nick! Great info!

I agree roaches>crickets if you are going to raise them. I was just saying if he was buying roaches to feed instead of buying crickets to feed the roaches may cost more.

I would suggest you start raising as many insect varieties that you can if the cost for keeping your chameleon fed is a major concern. Not to mention you know what your insects have eaten before they are fed to your chameleon. I don't 100% understand your question either. Crickets are expensive...

Hope you are able to breed him. He's a cool looking chameleon! Congrats on the new addition

I like the foam wall in the back it looks very organic and natural.

You don't really need to in Florida. The female bsf will lay where there is rotting fruit. Seeding might speed up the process but isn't necessary.

If you have time and access to some outdoor space I'd suggest black soldier flys (bsf) too. They take a little time like a month or more to get fully grown flys but they are super easy to get started and they are naturally higher in calcium than most feeders. Only thing is that you will need to...

I'm no expert but he looks a bit thin to me. I'd be feeding him until he wasn't interested in roaches/crickets anymore. You could also look into black soldier fly larva I hear they are good for chameleons of any age but especially the young ones.

He's a handsome devil and unique too!
