Here’s the difference between two month and fourteen month old O’shaunessy eggs. Granted, the two month eggs are CB and successfully laid, but aren’t guaranteed fertile yet.
Thank you. I didn’t do any humidity adjustments other than having slightly vented incubation containers that were allowed to naturally dry during the cool period and topping the water off back up to the initial weight once it started to warm up again, which peaked at 75 during the day. I haven’t...
Thanks! I may not post much anymore but I still believe this is the best platform for archiving and retrieving information on chameleons. The attitude you see in those pics was at about 3 and “he” could definitely turn it up to 11.
Thanks! Yep. I knew that OE parsonii had been taken down to 55deg. and with the o’shaugh’s higher altitude could probably go even lower but I started with mid 50’s and that seems to have worked. I’ve been paying attention.
Thanks everybody. He was one of the spiciest hatchlings I’ve ever had to get out of an incubation container for sure. You can see a bit of it in the last two pics. That coupled with one of the most snubbed noses I’ve ever seen just added to the cute factor. These are CH from a wild mother and...
Been a while since I posted but this just happened! After 14 months of incubation, this little one was waiting to greet me today! Two more have pipped! I have not been able to find any accounts of them being hatched in captivity before. If anyone knows otherwise, please let me know. Thanks!
Here is the female crypticum I had right before I sent her to Joel. Zoom in and check out the blue spots on her legs and abdomen. Would love to hear an update on her.
Beautiful. Congrats! My clutch just started hatching today. Sire imported May 2016. Dam imported Dec. 2014, so also a new bloodline unrelated to anything else in captivity.
You didn't tell me you had a male lined up! I want to see the colors of that boy in better lighting for sure. He looks very promising. I'll text you about my female we talked about...about.......about.
Working on it. All I have now I'm keeping for my breeding group. If I'm lucky enough to get some f2 I'll let you know. Where did you come across your male if you don't mind me asking?
That's horrible! It looks like she's a blue eye, too. Have you noticed this trait in many of the other imports you've looked through? My smallest male just started showing it and it blew me away. Do any other of yours have blue eyes?
Spyro88, I sincerely apologize to you and the rest of the community. I was half asleep and responded without looking at what angle you may have been coming from. The extreme stress I've been under for the past couple days have me on edge and I jumped to the conclusion that you were frowning on...
