I know that some of us are afraid of feeding bees to our chams because of the stinger, some of you take the stinger off and some others just feed them as they are.. I've been working with bees for a while now and there's actually a way of making them produce drones (males, without a stinger)...

I'm sorry, let me phrase it better: It won't change the incubation period and definitely won't increase the chances of hatching, it just makes them communicate when it's time to get out of the egg. I guess you can consider it "speeding up the process" but only for the slower ones

I asked this exact question to Bill Strand. He told me that chameleons in the wild don't need to dig so deep as they do in captivity to feel safe, so they usually lay in 1 or 2 inches underground and the babies are able to dig their way out when they hatch.. also the soil stays relatively soft...

Hey, sorry for the delay, I always got home from work too late to weight him. I just did but my scale is not reading correctly (different numbers with the same deli cup and sometimes negative numbers) I tried numerous times and I think the correct weight is around 1.58 grams (again, might be...

72°-74° incubating. I got it at an expo, drove 2h from there to my house, max 77° in the car (estimate).

It was a single egg from chameleons101 I'll put him on the scale later today and report

He has a deformation on his tail already, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's a genetic problem.. I'll keep you posted!

Very happy to introduce you my latest rescue! I think I'm going to name her Lucie as @Mendez suggested. Her previous owner bought her a month ago for his 5yo daughter, interested lasted a couple of days. He had the Chameleon kit etc but the cage was surprisingly pretty good, lots of foliage and...

Hey everyone! I hatched a panther on Feb 11th so he's now 3 months old, but his size is a little concerning.. I've cultured all of his food so I don't think it's due to parasites, any thoughts on why he's not growing as he should?

Looks like a female to me too! The colors are a pretty evident sign and also the tail looks very thin for a male.. I have 2 females born at the same time and one is twice as big as the other one. I guess it's just genetics.. nothing to worry about anyway, the vet cannot make her grow faster

Yeah! Still crooked, I checked the videos of him hatching and looks like it was already looking slightly tilted.. I just posted a video of him on YouTube.

Where are you located?

Panthers don't munch on leaves like a veiled would do, but we're talking about individuals, you never know. Fake plants are risky and don't hold humidity, live plants are always the best choice.

Should have kept the name! Rango is such an original name and now she will probably have identity issues 😂😂 glad to see that she's in good hands now! Welcome Lily ❤️

Are you raising them individually or in groups? Looks like a bioactive, do you have one for each baby?? 😱😱

Thank you for sharing the data @javadi

I've seen this one and researched Christopher Anderson, he worked with Bill Strand too! I just signed up for the course, I will still look at other options if anyone has other suggestions though

Does anyone know a good and reputable course that can be attended online for a certificate in herpetology? I've been researching a lot about chameleons but I just can't get enough, I would like to start one or more classes to better understand chameleons and captive management. I found different...
