What a surprise!! Julie is beautiful and I'm glad she's okay. Best to keep a close eye on her for retained eggs, however after her ordeal and seeing as she's new in your home, normally you'd give her privacy and leave her be, right? In this case you may not be able to while administering care...
You may want to check out this (kind of) recent thread. There seems to be a lot of members contributing that are keeping the T. Jacksonii you are interested in! Perhaps you could private message some of them...
I am very lucky in that I have a couple who run a reptile boarding business out of their home AND they live very close to me! They love reps and don't charge a lot - they want to make owning a Cham or other reptile accessible for all, money wise. I pack up my chams and either use their cages or...
I haven't been online for a few days and haven't had a chance to check this thread until now but I just wanted to thank everyone for their kind words about Isis. I know a great many of you offered advice and assistance when I was having problems on her second clutch and for that I am grateful...
Glad to hear Rex is feeling better! My dearly departed Isis had a propensity for acquiring RI's as well, seemed like once she had one she got them quite often.
It has taken me a week to sit down and write this, as I've been pretty upset with the passing of my beloved little veiled girl, Isis.
We had been through alot together: She came home from the pet store at 11 weeks with pneumonia which lasted a good 6 months, but which we fought successfully...
What a wonderful keepsake! That is fantastic - your chams are fantastic! Truly great memories of such a wonderful diverse group of chameleons. They really are the most gorgeous, Jann. :)
Oh no! I am SO sorry for your loss of beautiful Sid, Jann. What a horribly sad time for you lately. My heart aches for you as I know you are so very sad at his loss. RIP handsome Sid.
Ahhhhh, whew! Thanks everyone! You don't know how happy that makes me right now. I lost my veiled girl this morning, which came as a shock with its suddeness! I'm not sure I could handle more bad news.
:relieved:
I picked up Turq a week ago from a guy selling him on Craigslist and have been extremely happy with his condition even though his previous owner didn't really take proper care of him. Luckily he was only with him 4 months!
I was taking pictures of him today and once uploaded, noticed that one...
She could be receptive in even less time. Are you wanting to breed her? If not you can keep egg production down if you lower her temps to a constant 82*F and feed her less, about 6 crickets every other day. This will also allow her to live longer as well.
I feed my chameleons fruit once a week and they love it! Just make sure you cut it up small with no skin left on and they should learn to LOVE it in no time! My chams all eat mango, strawberries, canteloupe, blueberries and apple. I also feed them unsweetened apple sauce which they love...
Wow, that does not look good, poor little babe. Does the little lady have a name? Please keep us posted on her condition and I will keep her in my thoughts and best wishes. Very best of luck to you both.
