Somewhat close in climate/care to Trioceros ellioti, Trioceros hoehnellii, T. jacksonii (xanth. and jax jax). Frankly, probably similar in care to most montane species in general. Glad you are liking them, very cool species!

Thanks for sharing! This is awesome. I didn't know p. aeruginosa was known to be a species common in chameleon infections. Do you have a source detailing a breakdown of which bacterial species are most common in chameleon infections? This would be super interesting information! Covered to a...

Jay is generally not good to work with in my experience. He's impossible to communicate with and delays indefinitely with no communication. He has been nothing but unprofessional, shady, and dishonest with everyone I know of (except for one person) who has dealt with him. He will probably try to...

Awesome! Congratulations! It's amazing how many eggs chameleons can hide haha. Thanks for cataloging/detailing this interesting experience for everyone!

Amazon also sells a 1lb bag of them that are organic and grow amazingly well, for like $10. They're all over the place though, lots of good options. If you find some interesting species of pea that's different than usual and works well for you, please let us know!

Great, I will let you know then! And thank you for sharing these fascinating and valuable experiences with the community! Wishing you much success with the hatchlings and for future projects :)

I think that it's actually quite valuable information that there was no sign of development, as often times even if development has not proceeded, you can see tiny red embryos in the egg if fertile. The absence of that might suggest that the eggs were infertile. But if they were only candled...

Best of luck! Chameleon cans is the best importer around, glad to hear this and see it! Wishing you lots of success with them!

Very interesting, thanks for sharing your experience and congrats on the babies. I have a question for you-do you know for sure if all the eggs that went bad were fertile? Did you ever candle them and see any signs of development like veins? Did they grow over time? Even Madagascar species that...

The flapneck chameleon, chamaeleo dilepis, hasn't been imported into the US for quite some time. Chances are about 0 of finding any right now. C. senegalensis, the senegal chameleon, is somewhat similar and imported frequently. It's another cheaply imported species that could use some CBB efforts :)

I see, OK. I believe the veileds and panthers that UGR sells are primarily Florida wild caught. So they might be related or even from the same parents, who knows. Or they could be not so related. All depends if the collection sites were the same etc. and just by chance. So can't be sure. Since...

Hmmm. Given the potential issues you have been seeing with these veiled chameleons hatching, I am curious about a couple of things. Are the parents still around? Were they from different "lines" or is it possible it was siblings that bred with each other to produce these eggs?

I don't think they're all that hard to keep and breed. They appreciate cold nighttimes though, in the long-run this seems to help them stick around for longer. They're pretty resilient in my experience. What people sometimes struggle with is the babies. They are prone to dehydration and they can...

I'm not entirely sure if you are asking for baby enclosure recommendations or enclosures for bioactive in general. However, you can convert any cheap screen enclosure into a bioactive, near solid-sided enclosure by simply adding coroplast or other plastic where needed. You can then add corn...

Pill bugs/isopods are a great feeder. I have some chameleons that preferentially target them in fact (Trioceros ellioti, Furcifer antimena). Adding them to the diet is a good idea!

You're too kind, my friend!

I love xanths. I've never met a grumpy one. Even the feral ones in Hawaii will come off the tree no problem. I think they have such a lovely mild personality. A great addition to a chameleon household! As for what I breed/produce with some regularity: Furcifer lateralis (carpet chameleons)...

Yep! Furcifer petteri.

17 eggs :)

Anyone want to guess which species this is? Laying eggs after pairing, hoping for the best! Poor thing came in missing a hand. Hopefully the other pair will produce some soon too.
