Hi, I made a new website and there is a section about them. Is the information written there correct? Your constructive advice will be very much appreciated.

Many thanks

Update
I've had the first clutch of normal x hyper and they all turned out normal. So, I suspect that the genes coding for this melanin is homozygous recessive? Next step is to breed the two normals and if 25% come out with black markings, then it is homozygous recessive?
Thanks
Luke
Hi,
No worries and congrats on the baby. Your advice was very much appreciated.
I've been having problems with the normal female yemen attacking my males. One of my hyper males had wounded two of his feet and became infected and so half of each foot had to be surgically removed. So, I...
These chams have had no health problems, and if they had then I wouldn't tamper with them and not breed them at all. I accept your opinion your views, however, since they are very healthy I see no reason to not research their genetics.
Thanks for all the replies. They are all doing really well. I am not interbreeding and testing to see if the gene is dominant with normal chams. I also have some hyper x trans eggs in the incubator. A couple of months left till they hatch.

originally the two unrelated chameleons (which were normal green) had the offspring with just one slightly patched female, then with each lay, more and more turned up. I bred the black offspring and these were the results, hence it is a genetic trait. The parents of the offspring shown above...
Hi all, am new here and just found out about this website. I have been breeding Yemens for some time now and about six months ago I found one baby with a couple of black patches on her. Still breeding form the two, unrelated yemens, more and more turned up with more and more patches. I've been...
